From 8aa84ad8d6c740a04386f599694609ee4998e82e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Renninger Date: Fri, 24 Jul 2009 15:25:05 +0200 Subject: [CPUFREQ] Introduce global, not per core: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq Currently everything in the cpufreq layer is per core based. This does not reflect reality, for example ondemand on conservative governors have global sysfs variables. Introduce a global cpufreq directory and add the kobject to the governor struct, so that governors can easily access it. The directory is initialized in the cpufreq_core_init initcall and thus will always be created if cpufreq is compiled in, even if no cpufreq driver is active later.
