+description: |
+
+  KVM CPUFreq is a virtualized driver in guest kernels that sends utilization
+  of its vCPUs as a hint to the host. The host uses hint to schedule vCPU
+  threads and select CPU frequency. It enables accurate Per-Entity Load
+  Tracking for tasks running in the guest by querying host CPU frequency
+  unless a virtualized FIE exists(Like AMUs).
