User documentation for cpufreq governors and drivers has been moved to
admin-guide; adjust references from Kconfig entries accordingly.
Remove references from undocumented cpufreq drivers, as well as the
'userspace' cpufreq governor, for which no additional details are
provided in the admin-guide text.

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.

The support for this governor depends on CPU capability to

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.
