Change Proposal Name

This is a proposed Change for Fedora Linux.
This document represents a proposed Change. As part of the Changes process, proposals are publicly announced in order to receive community feedback. This proposal will only be implemented if approved by the Fedora Engineering Steering Committee.

Summary

Tuned and power-profiles-daemon provide a similar function to set and tune the power status of a system. However, the power-profiles-daemon provides limited profiles to configure the power status of a system. In the meantime, tuned provides many power profiles for different kinds of use cases and technologies. Both of them have similar features, if they can be integrated into one, it allows the fedora user to have more options for power settings of their system and benefits the users.

In this proposal, we would like to replace power-profiles-daemon with tuned. As far as we know, tuned already provides power profiles for different use cases and power-profiles-daemon provides the basic power profile configuration, such platform_profiles, Intel p-state and AMD p-state. We expected that the user can set those profile, tuned provided through gnome-control-panel. To minimize the information to the user, the power panel would provide simple and advanced mode to show the power profiles. The impact scope will be on the tuned and the power panel since tuned should provide the default power setting and API as power-profiles-daemon and the power panel should be able to show the power profiles that tuned provides.
