[PATCH 2/6] CPUIDLE: menu governor updates

2007-08-21 Thread Adam Belay
This patch tweaks the menu governor to more effectively handle non-timer break events. Non-timer break events are detected by comparing the actual sleep time to the expected sleep time. In future revisions, it may be more reliable to use the timer data structures directly. Please Apply, Adam

[PATCH 3/6] CPUIDLE: handle BM detection inside the ACPI Processor driver

2007-08-21 Thread Adam Belay
This patch updates the ACPI processor driver to detect BM activity and limit state entry depth internally, rather than exposing such requirements to CPUIDLE. As a result, CPUIDLE can drop this ACPI-specific interface and become more platform independent. BM activity is now handled much more
