In order to define a common idle interface for the kernel to enter low power modes, this patch provides include files and code that manages OS calls for low power entry and exit.

Q: What happens for some reason CPU didn't hit targeted state in IDLE. Does CPU keep looping here forever. On OMAP4, we need to issue additional interconnect barrier before WFI. How can we make provision for the same Regards Santosh _______________________________________________ linaro-dev mailing list linaro-dev@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-dev
