546 The support of Intel(R) SST-BF depends on the Intel(R) Speed Select Technology -
547 Performance Profile (Intel(R) SST-PP) performance level configuration. It is
548 possible that only certain performance levels support Intel(R) SST-BF. It is also

646 feature is selected, the low priorities CPUs (which are not in
647 high-priority-cpu-list) can only offer up to 2400 MHz. As a result, if this
