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_COMMON 22 select IRQ_WORK 23 bool 24 25config CPU_FREQ_BOOST_SW 26 bool 27 depends on THERMAL 28 29config CPU_FREQ_STAT 30 tristate "CPU frequency translation statistics" 31 default y 32 help 33 This driver exports CPU frequency statistics information through sysfs 34 file system. 35 36 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the 37 module will be called cpufreq_stats. 38 39 If in doubt, say N. 40 41config CPU_FREQ_STAT_DETAILS 42 bool "CPU frequency translation statistics details" 43 depends on CPU_FREQ_STAT 44 help 45 This will show detail CPU frequency translation table in sysfs file 46 system. 47 48 If in doubt, say N. 49 50choice 51 prompt "Default CPUFreq governor" 52 default CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_USERSPACE if ARM_SA1100_CPUFREQ || ARM_SA1110_CPUFREQ 53 default CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_PERFORMANCE 54 help 55 This option sets which CPUFreq governor shall be loaded at 56 startup.
