menu "CPU Frequency scaling" config CPU_FREQ bool "CPU Frequency scaling" select SRCU help 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.

This allows you to get a full dynamic frequency capable system by simply loading your cpufreq low-level hardware driver. Be aware that not all cpufreq drivers support the ondemand governor.

If in doubt, say Y. config CPU_FREQ_GOV_ONDEMAND tristate "'ondemand' cpufreq policy governor" select CPU_FREQ_GOV_COMMON help '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). To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called cpufreq_ondemand. For details, take a look at linux/Documentation/cpu-freq. If in doubt, say N. config CPU_FREQ_GOV_CONSERVATIVE tristate "'conservative' cpufreq governor" depends on CPU_FREQ select CPU_FREQ_GOV_COMMON help '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. To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called cpufreq_conservative. For details, take a look at linux/Documentation/cpu-freq. If in doubt, say N. config CPU_FREQ_GOV_SCHEDUTIL bool "'schedutil' cpufreq policy governor" depends on CPU_FREQ && SMP select CPU_FREQ_GOV_ATTR_SET select IRQ_WORK help 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.
