CPU frequency and voltage scaling code in the Linux(TM) kernel
L i n u x C P U F r e q
Dominik Brodowski <linux@brodo.de>
Clock scaling allows you to change the clock speed of the CPUs on the
fly. This is a nice method to save battery power, because the lower
the clock speed, the less power the CPU consumes.

core.txt - General description of the CPUFreq core and
of CPUFreq notifiers
cpu-drivers.txt - How to implement a new cpufreq processor driver
governors.txt - What are cpufreq governors and how to
implement them?
index.txt - File index, Mailing list and Links (this document)

Mailing List
------------
There is a CPU frequency changing CVS commit and general list where
you can report bugs, problems or submit patches. To post a message,
send an email to cpufreq@vger.kernel.org, to subscribe go to
http://vger.kernel.org/vger-lists.html#cpufreq and follow the
instructions there.
