I’ll list out the methods here and the rocm-smi and non-SMI commands to do it. I’ll assume that this GPU is card0 (it may be card1, card2, etc, depending on what GPUs are installed on your system; “rocm-smi -i” or “cat /sys/class/drm/card?/device/device will give you the GPU IDs of all of the cards, then you can figure out which one you want to use)<o:p></o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p> <ol style="margin-top:0in" start="1" type="1"> <li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Mask the SCLKs . pp_dpm_sclk allows you to set a mask of what levels to use. <o:p></o:p></li><ol style="margin-top:0in" start="1" type="a"> <li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level2 lfo1">First, read the values (“rocm-smi --showclkfrq” , or “cat /sys/class/drm/card0/device/pp_dpm_sclk”) and see the supported DPM levels for your card. <o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level2 lfo1">Mask off the levels that you don’t want. E.g. If you only want to use levels 0-6 (and thus skip level 7), you can do either ‘rocm-smi --setsclk 0 1 2 3 4 5 6’ or ‘echo manual > /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_dpm_force_performance_level && echo “0 1 2 3 4 5 6” > /sys/class/drm/card0/device/pp_dpm_sclk’ . This will set DPM to only use levels 0-6 and skip level 7. You can do this for any combination of levels or a single level (“0 2 5”, “1 2 7”, “5”, etc). That will tell it to only use the specified DPM levels and will persist until reboot, or until the power_dpm_force_performance is set back to ‘auto’ .<o:p></o:p></li></ol> <li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">Set the specific DPM level values manually:<o:p></o:p></li><ol style="margin-top:0in" start="1" type="a"> <li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level2 lfo1">First, you’ll need to enable the Power Profile Overdrive functionality. The easiest way is to add “amdgpu.ppfeaturemask=0xffffffff” to your linux command line parameters (by editing /boot/grub/grub.cfg manually, editing /etc/default/grub and doing an update-grub, or manually entering the kernel parameter in the GRUB menu before booting).<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level2 lfo1">Once that’s enabled, you should see the following file: /sys/class/drm/card0/device/pp_od_clk_voltage.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level2 lfo1">Check the current DPM level information with “rocm-smi -S” or “cat /sys/class/drm/card0/device/pp_od_clk_voltage file” .

So if you want to keep it to whatever level 6 is, just set level 7 to have the same values as level 6 (that way you don’t have to muck with voltages and such). Or if 5 is the highest that you want, set level 6 and level 7 to match level 5<o:p></o:p></li></ol> </ol> <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal">Hopefully that helps. It also means that you don’t have to constantly try to build your own kernel with a change to cap the SCLK cherry-picked on tpo.
