+.Sh NAME
+.Nm hwpstate_intel
+.Nd Intel Speed Shift Technology driver
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+To compile this driver into your kernel
+place the following line in your kernel
+configuration file:
+.Bd -ragged -offset indent
+.Cd "device cpufreq"
+.Ed
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides support for hardware-controlled performance states on Intel
+platforms, also known as Intel Speed Shift Technology.
+.Sh LOADER TUNABLES
+.Bl -tag -width indent
+.It Va hint.hwpstate_intel.0.disabled
+Can be used to disable
+.Nm ,
+allowing other compatible drivers to manage performance states, like
+.Xr est 4 .
+Defaults to
+.Dv Qq 0
+(enabled).
+.It Va machdep.hwpstate_pkg_ctrl
+Selects between package-level control (the default) and per-core control.
+.Dv Qq 1
+selects package-level control and
+.Dv Qq 0
+selects core-level control.
+.El
+.Sh SYSCTL VARIABLES
+The following
+.Xr sysctl 8
+values are available
+.Bl -tag -width indent
+.It Va dev.hwpstate_intel.%d.%desc
+Describes the attached driver
+.It dev.hwpstate_intel.0.%desc: Intel Speed Shift
+.It Va dev.hwpstate_intel.%d.%driver
+Driver in use, always hwpstate_intel.
+.It dev.hwpstate_intel.0.%driver: hwpstate_intel
+.It Va dev.hwpstate_intel.%d.%parent
+The CPU that is exposing these frequencies.
+For example
+.Va cpu0 .
+.It dev.hwpstate_intel.0.%parent: cpu0
+.It Va dev.hwpstate_intel.%d.epp
+Energy/Performance Preference.
+Valid values range from 0 to 100.
+Setting this field conveys a hint to the hardware regarding a preference towards
+performance (at value 0), energy efficiency (at value 100), or somewhere in
+between.
+.It dev.hwpstate_intel.0.epp: 0
+.El
+.Sh COMPATIBILITY
+.Nm
+is only found on supported Intel CPUs.
