171 | Description: Discover and change clock speed of CPUs | ||
172 | |||
173 | Clock scaling allows you to change the clock speed of the | ||
174 | CPUs on the fly. This is a nice method to save battery | ||
175 | power, because the lower the clock speed, the less power | ||
176 | the CPU consumes. | ||
177 | |||
178 | There are many knobs to tweak in this directory. | ||
179 | |||
180 | See files in Documentation/cpu-freq/ for more information. | ||
