Your work on reverse engineering DPTF seems abandoned. Is it that everything was upstreamed? Because there's still a performance gap between Windows and Linux.

Your work on reverse engineering DPTF seems abandoned. Is it that everything was upstreamed? Because there's still a performance gap between Windows and Linux.
Also, why is Intel so reluctant on fixing this themselves? It looks so simple to me too fix this by releasing the docs and fixing thermald, and still, here we are having to use throttled for those wanting a little bit more punch.
And finally, how is it that nobody it's creating a custom, patched thermald that takes all this into account? Is it that the process for reverse engineering is too complicated and that we don't have the full picture yet? It shouldn't be too difficult to read the values Windows takes and reverse engineer it, although it may be tougher than it seems at first.
