This attribute is only present if ``intel_pstate`` works in the
`active mode with the HWP feature enabled <Active Mode With HWP_>`_ in
the processor. If set (equal to 1), it causes the minimum P-state limit
to be increased dynamically for a short time whenever a task previously
waiting on I/O is selected to run on a given logical CPU (the purpose
of this mechanism is to improve performance).

This setting has no effect on logical CPUs whose minimum P-state limit
is directly set to the highest non-turbo P-state or above it.

nconfig
--------------------------------------------------

nconfig is an alternate text-based configurator. It lists function
keys across the bottom of the terminal (window) that execute commands.
You can also just use the corresponding numeric key to execute the
commands unless you are in a data entry window. E.g., instead of F6
for Save, you can just press 6.

Use F1 for Global help or F3 for the Short help menu.

Searching in nconfig:

You can search either in the menu entry "prompt" strings
or in the configuration symbols.

Use / to begin a search through the menu entries. This does
not support regular expressions. Use <Down> or <Up> for
Next hit and Previous hit, respectively. Use <Esc> to
terminate the search mode.

F8 (SymSearch) searches the configuration symbols for the
given string or regular expression (regex).
