This is a nice method to save power, because 9 the lower the CPU clock speed, the less power the CPU consumes. 10 11 Note that this driver doesn't automatically change the CPU 12 clock speed, you need to either enable a dynamic cpufreq governor 13 (see below) after boot, or use a userspace tool. 14 15 For details, take a look at <file:Documentation/cpu-freq>. 16 17 If in doubt, say N. 18 19if CPU_FREQ 20 21config CPU_FREQ_GOV_ATTR_SET 22 bool 23 24config CPU_FREQ_GOV_COMMON 25 select CPU_FREQ_GOV_ATTR_SET 26 select IRQ_WORK 27 bool 28 29config CPU_FREQ_BOOST_SW 30 bool 31 depends on THERMAL 32 33config CPU_FREQ_STAT 34 bool "CPU frequency transition statistics" 35 help 36 Export CPU frequency statistics information through sysfs. 37 38 If in doubt, say N. 39 40choice 41 prompt "Default CPUFreq governor" 42 default CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_USERSPACE if ARM_SA1100_CPUFREQ || ARM_SA1110_CPUFREQ 43 default CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_PERFORMANCE 44 help 45 This option sets which CPUFreq governor shall be loaded at 46 startup.
