|
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 <file:Documentation/cpu-freq>.
|
||
|
|
|

|
|
If in doubt, say N.

'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.
