Hi Len, Other feedback notwithstanding, works fine for me. Just a small typo type comment: On 2017.11.08 23:39 Len Brown wrote: ...[snip]... > Here we create the "cpuidle.use_deepest" modparam to provide this capability. > > "cpuidle.use_deepest=Y" can be set at boot-time, and >

[PATCH] cpuidle: Add "cpuidle.use_deepest" to bypass governor and allow HW to go deep

From: Len Brown While there are several mechanisms (cmdline, sysfs, PM_QOS) to limit cpuidle to shallow idle states, there is no simple mechanism to give the hardware permission to enter the deeptest state permitted by PM_QOS. Here we create the "cpuidle.use_deepest"
