7 * The idle injection framework provides a way to force CPUs to enter idle
8 * states for a specified fraction of time over a specified period.
10 * It relies on the smpboot kthreads feature providing common code for CPU
11 * hotplug and thread [un]parking.
13 * All of the kthreads used for idle injection are created at init time.
15 * Next, the users of the idle injection framework provide a cpumask via
16 * its register function. The kthreads will be synchronized with respect to
19 * The idle + run duration is specified via separate helpers and that allows
20 * idle injection to be started.
22 * The idle injection kthreads will call play_idle_precise() with the idle
23 * duration and max allowed latency specified as per the above.
25 * After all of them have been woken up, a timer is set to start the next idle
28 * The timer interrupt handler will wake up the idle injection kthreads for
29 * all of the CPUs in the cpumask provided by the user.
31 * Idle injection is stopped synchronously and no leftover idle injection
32 * kthread activity after its completion is guaranteed.
34 * It is up to the user of this framework to provide a lock for higher-level
35 * synchronization to prevent race conditions like starting idle injection
36 * while unregistering from the framework.
