The configuration item CONFIG_X86_E_POWERSAVER:

• prompt: VIA C7 Enhanced PowerSaver (DANGEROUS)
• type: tristate
• depends on: CONFIG_X86_32 && CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR
• defined in drivers/cpufreq/Kconfig.x86
• found in Linux kernels: 3.0–3.19, 4.0–4.20, 5.0–5.19, 6.0–6.12, 6.13-rc+HEAD
• modules built: e_powersaver, e_powersaver, e_powersaver

Help text

This adds the CPUFreq driver for VIA C7 processors. However, this driver does not have any safeguards to prevent operating the CPU out of spec and is thus considered dangerous. Please use the regular ACPI cpufreq driver, enabled by X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ.

If in doubt, say N.
