3config CPU_FREQ
4	bool "CPU Frequency scaling"
5	help
6	  CPU Frequency scaling allows you to change the clock speed of
7	  CPUs on the fly. This is a nice method to save power, because
8	  the lower the CPU clock speed, the less power the CPU consumes.
9
10	  Note that this driver doesn't automatically change the CPU
11	  clock speed, you need to either enable a dynamic cpufreq governor
12	  (see below) after boot, or use a userspace tool.
13
14	  For details, take a look at <file:Documentation/cpu-freq>.

144	  'ondemand' - This driver adds a dynamic cpufreq policy governor.
145	  The governor does a periodic polling and
146	  changes frequency based on the CPU utilization.
147	  The support for this governor depends on CPU capability to
148	  do fast frequency switching (i.e, very low latency frequency
149	  transitions).

161	select CPU_FREQ_GOV_COMMON
162	help
163	  'conservative' - this driver is rather similar to the 'ondemand'
164	  governor both in its source code and its purpose, the difference is
165	  its optimisation for better suitability in a battery powered
166	  environment.  The frequency is gracefully increased and decreased
167	  rather than jumping to 100% when speed is required.
168
169	  If you have a desktop machine then you should really be considering
170	  the 'ondemand' governor instead, however if you are using a laptop,
171	  PDA or even an AMD64 based computer (due to the unacceptable
172	  step-by-step latency issues between the minimum and maximum frequency
173	  transitions in the CPU) you will probably want to use this governor.
