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>. | |

16 | If in doubt, say N. | |

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. | |
