Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Colin Ian King * Package name: idlestat Version : 0.3 Upstream Author : Daniel Lezcano * URL : https://wiki.linaro.org/WorkingGroups/PowerManagement/Resources/Tools/Idlestat * License : GPL-2+ Programming Lang: C Description : measures CPU time in idle and operating states Idlestat uses kernel FTRACE function to monitor and capture C-state and P-state transitions of CPUs over a time interval. It calculates the total, average, min and max times spend in each C-state, P-state for each CPU and in each CPU cluster. It also reports the times specific IRQs caused the CPU to exit idle state, per CPU and per-IRQ. The tool is very useful to help identify poor power saving configuration on systems. Compared to tools like powertop, idlestat is more targetted at just CPU C and P states and provides a more detailed summary of the overall states of each state. idlestat is designed to do one job, and do it well.
