2025-05-02	cpupower: change binding's makefile to use -lcpupower	John B. Wyatt IV
	Originally I believed I needed the .o files to make the bindings. The linking failed due to a missing .so link in Fedora or by using make install-lib from the cpupower directory. Amend the makefile and the README. Big thanks to Wander Lairson Costa <wander@redhat.com> for the help.

2024-12-20	pm: cpupower: Add install and uninstall options to bindings makefile	John B. Wyatt IV
	Installs the .so and .py files generated by SWIG to system's site packages directory. This allows the Python bindings to be used system wide. This commit also includes documentation on setting up and installing the Python bindings. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241219012606.38963-1-jwyatt@redhat.com Signed-off-by: "John B.

2024-09-05	pm:cpupower: Add SWIG bindings files for libcpupower	John B. Wyatt IV
	SWIG is a tool packaged in Fedora and other distros that can generate bindings from C and C++ code for several languages including Python, Perl, and Go. These bindings allows users to easily write scripts that use and extend libcpupower's functionality. Currently, only Python is provided in the makefile, but additional languages may be added if there is demand. Added suggestions from Shuah Khan for the README and license discussion. Note that while SWIG itself is GPL v3+ licensed; the resulting output, the bindings code, is permissively licensed + the license of the .o files. Please see https://swig.org/legal.html and [1] for more details.
