1 CPU frequency and voltage scaling code in the Linux(TM) kernel 2 3 4 L i n u x C P U F r e q 5 6 7 8 9 Dominik Brodowski <linux[AT]brodo[DOT]de> 10 11 12 13 Clock scaling allows you to change the clock speed of the CPUs on the 14 fly. This is a nice method to save battery power, because the lower 15 the clock speed, the less power the CPU consumes. 16 17 18 19 Documents in this directory: 20 ---------------------------- 21 core.txt - General description of the CPUFreq core and 22 of CPUFreq notifiers 23 24 cpu-drivers.txt - How to implement a new cpufreq processor driver 25 26 governors.txt - What are cpufreq governors and how to 27 implement them? 28 29 index.txt - File index, Mailing list and Links (this document) 30 31 user-guide.txt - User Guide to CPUFreq 32 33 34 Mailing List 35 ------------ 36 There is a CPU frequency changing CVS commit and general list where 37 you can report bugs, problems or submit patches.
