Linux: AM335x frequency management

Tool/software: Linux

Hello,

I am using BBB board. I have configured DRAM to 128 MiB Now I want to change the frequency of BBB

my uboot version :  u-boot v2017.1 , Linux kernel version :  4.9.0-linux-yocto  on ubuntu 16.04

  • I want to make it running on 700 MHz, so I have change the "am335x-boneblack.dts" file as below,

clk_mcasp0_fixed: clk_mcasp0_fixed {

#clock-cells = <0>;
compatible = "fixed-clock";
/ * clock-frequency = <24576000>; */

clock-frequency = <7000000>; 

};


But I do not think it has change the frequency,

  • how can I make the CPU run on single core also?
  • how can I change CPU frequency ?

To view the frequency and other information I have added command cpufreq-info,  into the file-system but it gives below error.

"analyzing CPU 0 no or unknown cpufreq driver is active on this CPU"

thanks,

Amit
