Message-ID<uhLxw-5QD-5@gated-at.bofh.it>
Hi,

On x86 the fist idle state is a polling one, but the way it is set up is far
from straightforward and then it is avoided by governors in rather somewhat
convoluted fashion.

Make this more clear by explicitly flagging that state as "polling" and
checking its flag where it needs to be avoided instead of using
arch-dependent numbering of idle states (patch [1/3]), move the
polling state code from driver.c to a separate C file (patch [2/3]) and
move the initialization of it from the core to the relevant cpuidle drivers -
ACPI and intel_idle (patch [3/3]).

Thanks,
Rafael

#1718663 — [PATCH 2/3] cpuidle: Move polling state initialization code to separate file

Subject[PATCH 2/3] cpuidle: Move polling state initialization code to separate file

In reply to#1718662
From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

Move the polling state initialization code to a separate file built
conditionally on CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_CPU_RELAX to get rid of the #ifdef
in driver.c.

#1718665 — [PATCH 3/3] cpuidle: Make drivers initialize polling state

From"Rafael J. Wysocki" <rjw@rjwysocki.net>
Date2017-08-23 23:40 +0200
Subject[PATCH 3/3] cpuidle: Make drivers initialize polling state
Message-ID<uhLxw-5QD-19@gated-at.bofh.it>
In reply to#1718662
From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

Make the drivers that want to include the polling state into their
states table initialize it explicitly and drop the initialization of
it (which in fact is conditional, but that is not obvious from the
code) from the core.

Tested this on ARM64 platform(both DT and ACPI/LPI) and everything
continues to work fine.
