The cpufrequtils package (homepage:
|
|
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/cpufreq/cpufrequtils.html )
|
|
consists of the following elements:
|
|
|
|
requirements
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
On x86 pciutils is needed at runtime (-lpci).
|
|
For compilation pciutils-devel (pci/pci.h) and a gcc version
|
|
providing cpuid.h is needed.
|
|
For both it's not explicitly checked for (yet).
|
|
|
|
|
|
libcpufreq
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
"libcpufreq" is a library which offers a unified access method for userspace
|
|
tools and programs to the cpufreq core and drivers in the Linux kernel. This
|
|
allows for code reduction in userspace tools, a clean implementation of
|
|
the interaction to the cpufreq core, and support for both the sysfs and proc
|
|
interfaces [depending on configuration, see below].
|
|
|
|
|
|
compilation and installation
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
su
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
should suffice on most systems. It builds default libcpufreq,
|
|
cpufreq-set and cpufreq-info files and installs them in /usr/lib and
|
|
/usr/bin, respectively. If you want to set up the paths differently and/or
|
|
want to configure the package to your specific needs, you need to open
|
|
"Makefile" with an editor of your choice and edit the block marked
|
|
CONFIGURATION.

THANKS
|
|
------
|
|
Many thanks to Mattia Dongili who wrote the autotoolization and
|
|
libtoolization, the manpages and the italian language file for cpufrequtils;
|
|
to Dave Jones for his feedback and his dump_psb tool; to Bruno Ducrot for his
|
|
powernow-k8-decode and intel_gsic tools as well as the french language file;
|
|
and to various others commenting on the previous (pre-)releases of
|
|
cpufrequtils.
