Enclosed please find the link to the Weekly Status report for the Power Management working group for the week ending 2011-09-16.
== Weekly Status Report == https://wiki.linaro.org/WorkingGroups/PowerManagement/Status/2011-09-15
== Summary == * The PMWG will handle the common struck clk work, going forward * Steve Jahnke gave thermal talk at Linux Plumbers Conference which was pretty well received. Got a lot of comments and feedback from not just upstream, but also other Si vendors (Intel, Nvidia, Qualcomm). * Basic feedback was that existing framework SHOULD be able to handle what we need (governor structure, etc.) so we should submit patches to that first. * The more complex items (tying multiple sensors into a single thermal zone) would be welcomed additions so we should propose and take the lead here * Samsung: Hosted the thermal sensor driver, thermal governor , cooling devices and the DVFS fixes that are not in mainline * Started testing sched_mc features in samsung exynos board. * Continuing the work on imx cpuidle driver, modifying code to be more community friendly and testing and fixing issues for compatibility with i.MX6Q. * Initial tests on the cpuidle menu governor showed some significant power inefficiency for some contexts, will discuss the findings with Linaro PMWG. * Studying the impact of flags and fields of struct sched_domain in scheduling policy
