+config X86_INTEL_PSTATE
+ bool "Intel P state control"
+ depends on X86
+ help
+ This driver provides a P state for Intel core processors.
+ The driver implements an internal governor and will become
+ the scaling driver and governor for Sandy bridge processors.
+
+ When this driver is enabled it will become the preferred
+ scaling driver for Sandy bridge processors.
+
+ If in doubt, say N.
+
+config X86_PCC_CPUFREQ
+ tristate "Processor Clocking Control interface driver"
+ depends on ACPI && ACPI_PROCESSOR
+ help
+ This driver adds support for the PCC interface.
+
+ For details, take a look at:
+ <file:Documentation/cpu-freq/pcc-cpufreq.txt>.
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
+ module will be called pcc-cpufreq.
+
+ If in doubt, say N.
+
+config X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ
+ tristate "ACPI Processor P-States driver"
+ depends on ACPI_PROCESSOR
+ help
+ This driver adds a CPUFreq driver which utilizes the ACPI
+ Processor Performance States.
+ This driver also supports Intel Enhanced Speedstep and newer
+ AMD CPUs.
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
+ module will be called acpi-cpufreq.
+
+ For details, take a look at <file:Documentation/cpu-freq/>.
+
+ If in doubt, say N.
+
+config X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ_CPB
+ default y
+ bool "Legacy cpb sysfs knob support for AMD CPUs"
+ depends on X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ && CPU_SUP_AMD
+ help
+ The powernow-k8 driver used to provide a sysfs knob called "cpb"
+ to disable the Core Performance Boosting feature of AMD CPUs. This
+ file has now been superseded by the more generic "boost" entry.
+
+ By enabling this option the acpi_cpufreq driver provides the old
+ entry in addition to the new boost ones, for compatibility reasons.
+
+config X86_SFI_CPUFREQ
+ tristate "SFI Performance-States driver"
+ depends on X86_INTEL_MID && SFI
+ help
+ This adds a CPUFreq driver for some Silvermont based Intel Atom
+ architectures like Z34xx and Z35xx which enumerate processor
+ performance states through SFI.
+
+ If in doubt, say N.
+
+config ELAN_CPUFREQ
+ tristate "AMD Elan SC400 and SC410"
+ depends on MELAN
+ ---help---
+ This adds the CPUFreq driver for AMD Elan SC400 and SC410
+ processors.
+
+ You need to specify the processor maximum speed as boot
+ parameter: elanfreq=maxspeed (in kHz) or as module
+ parameter "max_freq".
+
+ For details, take a look at <file:Documentation/cpu-freq/>.
+
+ If in doubt, say N.
+
+config SC520_CPUFREQ
+ tristate "AMD Elan SC520"
+ depends on MELAN
+ ---help---
+ This adds the CPUFreq driver for AMD Elan SC520 processor.
+
+ For details, take a look at <file:Documentation/cpu-freq/>.
+
+ If in doubt, say N.
+
+
+config X86_POWERNOW_K6
+ tristate "AMD Mobile K6-2/K6-3 PowerNow!"
+ depends on X86_32
+ help
+ This adds the CPUFreq driver for mobile AMD K6-2+ and mobile
+ AMD K6-3+ processors.
+
+ For details, take a look at <file:Documentation/cpu-freq/>.
+
+ If in doubt, say N.
+
+config X86_POWERNOW_K7
+ tristate "AMD Mobile Athlon/Duron PowerNow!"
+ depends on X86_32
+ help
+ This adds the CPUFreq driver for mobile AMD K7 mobile processors.
+
+ For details, take a look at <file:Documentation/cpu-freq/>.
+
+ If in doubt, say N.
+
+config X86_POWERNOW_K7_ACPI
+ bool
+ depends on X86_POWERNOW_K7 && ACPI_PROCESSOR

+
+config X86_POWERNOW_K8
+ tristate "AMD Opteron/Athlon64 PowerNow!"
+ depends on ACPI && ACPI_PROCESSOR && X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ
+ help
+ This adds the CPUFreq driver for K8/early Opteron/Athlon64 processors.
+ Support for K10 and newer processors is now in acpi-cpufreq.
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
+ module will be called powernow-k8.

+
+config X86_AMD_FREQ_SENSITIVITY
+ tristate "AMD frequency sensitivity feedback powersave bias"
+ depends on CPU_FREQ_GOV_ONDEMAND && X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ && CPU_SUP_AMD
+ help
+ This adds AMD-specific powersave bias function to the ondemand
+ governor, which allows it to make more power-conscious frequency
+ change decisions based on feedback from hardware (available on AMD
+ Family 16h and above).
+
+ Hardware feedback tells software how "sensitive" to frequency changes
+ the CPUs' workloads are. CPU-bound workloads will be more sensitive
+ -- they will perform better as frequency increases. Memory/IO-bound
+ workloads will be less sensitive -- they will not necessarily perform
+ better as frequency increases.
+
+ If in doubt, say N.
+
+config X86_GX_SUSPMOD
+ tristate "Cyrix MediaGX/NatSemi Geode Suspend Modulation"
+ depends on X86_32 && PCI
+ help
+ This add the CPUFreq driver for NatSemi Geode processors which
+ support suspend modulation.
+
+ For details, take a look at <file:Documentation/cpu-freq/>.
+
+ If in doubt, say N.
+
+config X86_SPEEDSTEP_CENTRINO
+ tristate "Intel Enhanced SpeedStep (deprecated)"
+ select X86_SPEEDSTEP_CENTRINO_TABLE if X86_32
+ depends on X86_32 || (X86_64 && ACPI_PROCESSOR)
+ help
+ This is deprecated and this functionality is now merged into
+ acpi_cpufreq (X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ). Use that driver instead of
+ speedstep_centrino.
+ This adds the CPUFreq driver for Enhanced SpeedStep enabled
+ mobile CPUs. This means Intel Pentium M (Centrino) CPUs
+ or 64bit enabled Intel Xeons.
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
+ module will be called speedstep-centrino.
+
+ For details, take a look at <file:Documentation/cpu-freq/>.
+
+ If in doubt, say N.
+
+config X86_SPEEDSTEP_CENTRINO_TABLE
+ bool "Built-in tables for Banias CPUs"
+ depends on X86_32 && X86_SPEEDSTEP_CENTRINO
+ default y
+ help
+ Use built-in tables for Banias CPUs if ACPI encoding
+ is not available.
+
+ If in doubt, say N.
+
+config X86_SPEEDSTEP_ICH
+ tristate "Intel Speedstep on ICH-M chipsets (ioport interface)"
+ depends on X86_32
+ help
+ This adds the CPUFreq driver for certain mobile Intel Pentium III
+ (Coppermine), all mobile Intel Pentium III-M (Tualatin) and all
+ mobile Intel Pentium 4 P4-M on systems which have an Intel ICH2,
+ ICH3 or ICH4 southbridge.
+
+ For details, take a look at <file:Documentation/cpu-freq/>.
+
+ If in doubt, say N.
+
+config X86_SPEEDSTEP_SMI
+ tristate "Intel SpeedStep on 440BX/ZX/MX chipsets (SMI interface)"
+ depends on X86_32
+ help
+ This adds the CPUFreq driver for certain mobile Intel Pentium III
+ (Coppermine), all mobile Intel Pentium III-M (Tualatin)
+ on systems which have an Intel 440BX/ZX/MX southbridge.
+
+ For details, take a look at <file:Documentation/cpu-freq/>.
+
+ If in doubt, say N.
+
+config X86_P4_CLOCKMOD
+ tristate "Intel Pentium 4 clock modulation"
+ help
+ This adds the CPUFreq driver for Intel Pentium 4 / XEON
+ processors. When enabled it will lower CPU temperature by skipping
+ clocks.
+
+ This driver should be only used in exceptional
+ circumstances when very low power is needed because it causes severe
+ slowdowns and noticeable latencies. Normally Speedstep should be used
+ instead.
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
+ module will be called p4-clockmod.
+
+ For details, take a look at <file:Documentation/cpu-freq/>.
+
+ Unless you are absolutely sure say N.
+
+config X86_CPUFREQ_NFORCE2
+ tristate "nVidia nForce2 FSB changing"
+ depends on X86_32
+ help
+ This adds the CPUFreq driver for FSB changing on nVidia nForce2
+ platforms.
+
+ For details, take a look at <file:Documentation/cpu-freq/>.
+
+ If in doubt, say N.
+
+config X86_LONGRUN
+ tristate "Transmeta LongRun"
+ depends on X86_32
+ help
+ This adds the CPUFreq driver for Transmeta Crusoe and Efficeon processors
+ which support LongRun.
+
+ For details, take a look at <file:Documentation/cpu-freq/>.
+
+ If in doubt, say N.
+
+config X86_LONGHAUL
+ tristate "VIA Cyrix III Longhaul"
+ depends on X86_32 && ACPI_PROCESSOR
+ help
+ This adds the CPUFreq driver for VIA Samuel/CyrixIII,
+ VIA Cyrix Samuel/C3, VIA Cyrix Ezra and VIA Cyrix Ezra-T
+ processors.
+
+ For details, take a look at <file:Documentation/cpu-freq/>.
+
+ If in doubt, say N.
+
+config X86_E_POWERSAVER
+ tristate "VIA C7 Enhanced PowerSaver (DANGEROUS)"
+ depends on X86_32 && ACPI_PROCESSOR
+ help
+ This adds the CPUFreq driver for VIA C7 processors. However, this driver
+ does not have any safeguards to prevent operating the CPU out of spec
+ and is thus considered dangerous. Please use the regular ACPI cpufreq
+ driver, enabled by CONFIG_X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ.
+
+ If in doubt, say N.

+comment "shared options"
+
+config X86_SPEEDSTEP_LIB

+
+config X86_SPEEDSTEP_RELAXED_CAP_CHECK
+ bool "Relaxed speedstep capability checks"
+ depends on X86_32 && (X86_SPEEDSTEP_SMI || X86_SPEEDSTEP_ICH)
+ help
+ Don't perform all checks for a speedstep capable system which would
+ normally be done. Some ancient or strange systems, though speedstep
+ capable, don't always indicate that they are speedstep capable. This
+ option lets the probing code bypass some of those checks if the
+ parameter "relaxed_check=1" is passed to the module.
