| bool "CPU Frequency scaling" |
| help |
| CPU Frequency scaling allows you to change the clock speed of |
| CPUs on the fly. This is a nice method to save power, because |
| the lower the CPU clock speed, the less power the CPU consumes. |
| |
| Note that this driver doesn't automatically change the CPU |
| clock speed, you need to either enable a dynamic cpufreq governor |
| (see below) after boot, or use a userspace tool. |
| |
| For details, take a look at |

| 'ondemand' - This driver adds a dynamic cpufreq policy governor. |
| The governor does a periodic polling and |
| changes frequency based on the CPU utilization. |

| do fast frequency switching (i.e, very low latency frequency |
| transitions). |
| |

| 'conservative' - this driver is rather similar to the 'ondemand' |
| governor both in its source code and its purpose, the difference is |
| its optimisation for better suitability in a battery powered |
| environment. The frequency is gracefully increased and decreased |
| rather than jumping to 100% when speed is required. |
| |
| If you have a desktop machine then you should really be considering |
| the 'ondemand' governor instead, however if you are using a laptop, |
| PDA or even an AMD64 based computer (due to the unacceptable |
| step-by-step latency issues between the minimum and maximum frequency |
| transitions in the CPU) you will probably want to use this governor. |

| This governor makes decisions based on the utilization data provided |
| by the scheduler. It sets the CPU frequency to be proportional to |
| the utilization/capacity ratio coming from the scheduler. If the |
| utilization is frequency-invariant, the new frequency is also |
| proportional to the maximum available frequency. If that is not the |
| case, it is proportional to the current frequency of the CPU. The |
| frequency tipping point is at utilization/capacity equal to 80% in |
| both cases. |
