+User Space Interface in ``sysfs``
+=================================
+
+Global Attributes
+-----------------
+
+``amd-pstate`` exposes several global attributes (files) in ``sysfs`` to
+control its functionality at the system level.  They are located in the
+``/sys/devices/system/cpu/amd-pstate/`` directory and affect all CPUs.
+
+``status``
+	Operation mode of the driver: "active", "passive" or "disable".
+
+	"active"
+		The driver is functional and in the ``active mode``
+
+	"passive"
+		The driver is functional and in the ``passive mode``
+
+	"disable"
+		The driver is unregistered and not functional now.
+
+        This attribute can be written to in order to change the driver's
+        operation mode or to unregister it.  The string written to it must be
+        one of the possible values of it and, if successful, writing one of
+        these values to the sysfs file will cause the driver to switch over
+        to the operation mode represented by that string - or to be
+        unregistered in the "disable" case.
