+ This adds the CPUFreq driver for mobile AMD Opteron/Athlon64 processors.
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
+ module will be called powernow-k8.
+
+ For details, take a look at <file:Documentation/cpu-freq/>.
+
+ If in doubt, say N.

+ select CPU_FREQ_TABLE
+ depends on 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_ACPI_CPUFREQ
+ tristate "ACPI Processor P-States driver"
+ select CPU_FREQ_TABLE
+ 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.
+
+ 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.

+ bool "/proc/acpi/processor/../performance interface (deprecated)"
+ depends on PROC_FS
+ depends on X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ || X86_POWERNOW_K8_ACPI
+ help
+ This enables the deprecated /proc/acpi/processor/../performance
+ interface. While it is helpful for debugging, the generic,
+ cross-architecture cpufreq interfaces should be used.
+
+ If in doubt, say N.
+
+config X86_P4_CLOCKMOD
+ tristate "Intel Pentium 4 clock modulation"
+ depends on EMBEDDED
+ select CPU_FREQ_TABLE
+ help
+ This adds the clock modulation 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.
