NAME
       tuned.conf - Tuned profile definition

DESCRIPTION
       This  man  page documents format of Tuned 2.0 profile definition files.
       Profile	is  stored  in	/etc/tuned/<profile_name>/tuned.conf   or   in
       /usr/lib/tuned/<profile_name>/tuned.conf	 file  where  the  /etc/tuned/
       directory has higher priority.

       The tuned.conf configures the profile and it is in ini-file format.

MAIN SECTION
       The main section is called "[main]" and can contain following options:

       include=
	      Includes config file  defined  as	 value.	 Config	 file  can  be
	      defined as full path or by the profile name to which it belongs.
	      If this parameter is present, the histogram will be shown at the
	      end of the measurement.

PLUGINS
       Every other section defines one plugin. The name of the section is used
       as name for the plugin and is used in  logs  to	identify  the  plugin.
       There  can  be  only  one  plugin  of particular type tuning particular
       device. Conflicts are by default fixed by merging the options  of  both
       plugins together. This can be changed by "replace" option.

       Every plugin section can contain following sections:

       type=  Plugin  type.  Currently	there  are  following  plugins:	 disk,
	      script, net, cpu, eeepc_she.

       devices=
	      Comma separated list of devices which should be  tuned  by  this
	      plugin  instance.	  If  you  omit this option, all found devices
	      will be tuned.

       replace=1
	      If there is conflict between two plugins (meaning two plugins of
	      the  same	 type  are trying to configure the same devices), then
	      the plugin defined as last replaces all options defined  by  the
	      previosly defined plugin.

       Plugins can also have plugin related options.

EXAMPLE
       [main]
       # Includes plugins defined in "included" profile.
       include=included

       # Define my_sysctl plugin
       [my_sysctl]
       type=sysctl
       # This plugin will replace any sysctl plugin defined in "included" profile
       replace=1
       # 256 KB default performs well experimentally.
       net.core.rmem_default = 262144
       net.core.wmem_default = 262144

       # Define my_script plugin
       # Both scripts (profile.sh from this profile and script from "included"
       # profile) will be run, because if there is no "replace=1" option the
       # default action is merge.
       [my_script]
       type=script
       script=profile.sh
