Since commit 46bcfad7a819bd17ac4e831b04405152d59784ab, cpuidle: Single/Global registration of idle states
we have a single registration for the cpuidle states which makes sense. But now two new architectures are coming: tegra3 and big.LITTLE.
These architectures have different cpus with different caracteristics for power saving. High load => powerfull processors, idle => small processors.
That implies different cpu latencies.
This patchset present a simple way to keep the current behavior as introduced by Deepthi without breaking the drivers and add the possibility to specify a per cpu states.
Looks good! I will do some tests with this next week.
Hi Peter,
shall I consider adding your acked-by ?
You can. I don't see any problem with the code as such (besides the race).
Did you have time to test the patchset ?
I haven't had time no :( I was on holiday most of august and had some other things to take care of last week :(. Working on it now.
Cheers,
Peter.
