 +This plugin is available on Linux and FreeBSD only.  It doesn't have any

  F</sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq> (for the first CPU
  installed) to get the current CPU frequency. If this file does not exist make
  sure B<cpufreqd> (L<http://cpufreqd.sourceforge.net/>) or a similar tool is
  installed and an "cpu governor" (that's a kernel module) is loaded.

 +On Linux, if the system has the I<cpufreq-stats> kernel module loaded, this
 +plugin reports the rate of p-state (cpu frequency) transitions and the
 +percentage of time spent in each p-state.
 +
 +On FreeBSD it does a sysctl dev.cpu.0.freq and submits this as instance 0.
 +At this time FreeBSD only has one frequency setting for all cores.
 +See the BUGS section in the FreeBSD man page for cpufreq(4) for more details.
 +
 +On FreeBSD the plugin checks the success of sysctl dev.cpu.0.freq and
 +unregisters the plugin when this fails.  A message will be logged to indicate
 +this.
