+# cpufreq
+
+This module shows the current CPU frequency as set by the cpufreq kernel
+module.
+
+**Requirement:**
+You need to have `CONFIG_CPU_FREQ` and (optionally) `CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_STAT`
+enabled in your kernel.
+
+This module tries to read from one of two possible locations. On
+initialization, it tries to read the `time_in_state` files provided by
+cpufreq\_stats. If this file does not exist, or doesn't contain valid data, it
+falls back to using the more inaccurate `scaling_cur_freq` file (which only
+represents the **current** CPU frequency, and doesn't account for any state
+changes which happen between updates).
+
+It produces one chart with multiple lines (one line per core).
+
+### configuration
+
+Sample:
+
+```yaml
+sys_dir: "/sys/devices"
+```
+
+If no configuration is given, module will search for cpufreq files in `/sys/devices` directory.
+Directory is also prefixed with `NETDATA_HOST_PREFIX` if specified.
