The scheduler needs the ratio freq_curr/freq_max for frequency-invariant accounting. On GOLDMONT (aka Apollo Lake), GOLDMONT_D (aka Denverton) and GOLDMONT_PLUS CPUs (aka Gemini Lake) set freq_max to the highest frequency reported by the CPU. The encoding of turbo ratios for GOLDMONT* is identical to the one for SKYLAKE_X, but we treat the Atom case apart because we want to set freq_max to a higher value, thus the ratio freq_curr/freq_max to be lower, leading to more conservative frequency selections (favoring power efficiency).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
