They talk to ACPI in same way. Only - difference between them is the way they do frequency transitions. - One uses MSRs and the other one uses IO ports. Functionaliy of - speedstep_centrino with ACPI hooks is now merged into acpi-cpufreq. - That means one common driver will support all Intel Enhanced Speedstep - capable CPUs. That means less confusion over name of - speedstep-centrino driver (with that driver supposed to be used on - non-centrino platforms). That means less duplication of code and - less maintenance effort and no possibility of these two drivers - going out of sync. - Current users of speedstep_centrino with ACPI hooks are requested to - switch over to acpi-cpufreq driver. speedstep-centrino will continue - to work using older non-ACPI static table based scheme even after this - date. - -Who: Venkatesh Pallipadi - ---------------------------- - What: /sys/firmware/acpi/namespace When: 2.6.21 Why: The ACPI namespace is effectively the symbol list for -- cgit v1.2.3-59-g8ed1b
