+Introduction
+------------
+
+The uncore can consume significant amount of power in Intel's Xeon servers based
+on the workload characteristics. To optimize the total power and improve overall
+performance, SoCs have internal algorithms for scaling uncore frequency. These
+algorithms monitor workload usage of uncore and set a desirable frequency.
+
+It is possible that users have different expectations of uncore performance and
+want to have control over it. The objective is similar to allowing users to set
+the scaling min/max frequencies via cpufreq sysfs to improve CPU performance.
+Users may have some latency sensitive workloads where they do not want any
+change to uncore frequency. Also, users may have workloads which require
+different core and uncore performance at distinct phases and they may want to
+use both cpufreq and the uncore scaling interface to distribute power and
+improve overall performance.
+
+Sysfs Interface
+---------------
+
+To control uncore frequency, a sysfs interface is provided in the directory:
+`/sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_uncore_frequency/`.
+
+There is one directory for each package and die combination as the scope of
+uncore scaling control is per die in multiple die/package SoCs or per
+package for single die per package SoCs. The name represents the
+scope of control. For example: 'package_00_die_00' is for package id 0 and
+die 0.
+
+Each package_*_die_* contains the following attributes:
+
+``initial_max_freq_khz``
+	Out of reset, this attribute represent the maximum possible frequency.
+	This is a read-only attribute. If users adjust max_freq_khz,
+	they can always go back to maximum using the value from this attribute.
+
+``initial_min_freq_khz``
+	Out of reset, this attribute represent the minimum possible frequency.
+	This is a read-only attribute. If users adjust min_freq_khz,
+	they can always go back to minimum using the value from this attribute.
+
+``max_freq_khz``
+	This attribute is used to set the maximum uncore frequency.
+
+``min_freq_khz``
+	This attribute is used to set the minimum uncore frequency.
+
+``current_freq_khz``
+	This attribute is used to get the current uncore frequency.
