Author: sbruno Date: Tue Jun 19 17:13:14 2012 New Revision: 237273 URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/237273 Log: Correct misunderstanding of hw.est.strict Setting strict causes a validation of the requested value vs the value currently running after a frequency change is requested. Change applicability to be single core not i386. Thanks to mav@ for reviewing and commenting on my lack of understanding.
