Amit, do you know of a good place to raid for better cpuidle, closer to upstream than OZ?
wasn't that merged in 3.2? are you looking for that : http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git%3Ba=commit%3Bh=...
What was merged depends on hotplug, it isn't SMP cpuidle. At this point, I'm quite confused about the history on what happened to the SMP cpuidle driver and why it wasn't merged. Mike or Kevin should know.
Amit is correct. The hotplug-dependent cpuidle got merged.
The SMP CPUidle patches have been put on the list and should work patch into a recent kernel: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.tegra/2649
However the OMAP4 support seems to be missing: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.omap/69186
So this isn't straightforward, but at least it's headed in the right direction.
