-The Linux Thermal Daemon program from 01.org
-
-Thermald deals with thermal issues for intel processor families
-codenamed intel sandy-bridge and above. It is a Linux daemon
-used to prevent the overheating of systems. This daemon monitors
-temperature and applies compensation using available cooling methods.
-
-Prefers kernel with:
- Intel RAPL power capping driver : Available from Linux kernel 3.13.rc1
- Intel P State driver (Available in Linux kernel stable release)
- Intel Power clamp driver (Available in Linux kernel stable release)
-
- CONFIG_X86_MSR, so that x86 MSR can be read/write from user space
- to control RAPL if no RAPL powecap class driver is not present.
-
- If none of the above is available uses cpufreq to control P states.
