cpufreq-set: Set the current work frequency of CPU 1.

cpufreq-set

$ sudo cpufreq-set -c ${1} -f ${work_frequency}

try on your machine

This command is used to set the CPU frequency for a specific CPU core.

Let's break down the command:

sudo: It is a command that allows the user to execute a command with administrative privileges.
cpufreq-set: It is a command used to dynamically modify the CPU frequency scaling settings.
-c ${1}: This parameter specifies the CPU core for which you want to set the frequency. ${1} refers to the first command-line argument passed to the script or command. The value of ${1} will be substituted with the desired CPU core.
-f ${work_frequency}: This parameter specifies the desired frequency to be set for the CPU core. ${work_frequency} refers to the value of a variable called work_frequency, which will be substituted with the desired frequency.

Overall, this command, when executed with administrative privileges, instructs the system to set the CPU frequency of a specific core to a desired value. The core number and frequency value are passed as arguments to the command.
