+ Denotes that the architecture supports DEVFREQ. If the architecture

+ bool "Generic Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling (DVFS) support"
+ depends on PM_OPP && ARCH_HAS_DEVFREQ
+ help
+ With OPP support, a device may have a list of frequencies and
+ voltages available. DEVFREQ, a generic DVFS framework can be
+ registered for a device with OPP support in order to let the
+ governor provided to DEVFREQ choose an operating frequency
+ based on the OPP's list and the policy given with DEVFREQ.
+
+ Each device may have its own governor and policy. DEVFREQ can
+ reevaluate the device state periodically and/or based on the
+ OPP list changes (each frequency/voltage pair in OPP may be
+ disabled or enabled).
+
+ Like some CPUs with CPUFREQ, a device may have multiple clocks.
+ However, because the clock frequencies of a single device are
+ determined by the single device's state, an instance of DEVFREQ
+ is attached to a single device and returns a "representative"
+ clock frequency from the OPP of the device, which is also attached
+ to a device by 1-to-1. The device registering DEVFREQ takes the
+ responsiblity to "interpret" the frequency listed in OPP and
+ to set its every clock accordingly with the "target" callback
+ given to DEVFREQ.
