[Feature Request] Add option to specify CPU freq to use. #54

Open Heisenborgar opened 1 month ago

Heisenborgar commented 1 month ago

I'd like to specify a specific freq like 1800MHz, rather than the default one.

A specific frequency? Maximum frequency or minimum frequency?

I'm curious about the reason for such request.

It's possible you could edit the script and reach your goal. First copy the frequencies file.

sudo cp /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$CORE/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies /etc/custom_cpu_frequencies

Then edit the new file /etc/custom_cpu_frequencies and remove any frequencies you don't want.

Finally, change 1 line in the temp-throttle script to be your custom frequencies file. From this:

FREQ_FILE="/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$CORE/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies"

To this:

FREQ_FILE="/etc/custom_cpu_frequencies"
