From 3a53396b0381ec9d5180fd8fe7a681c8ce95fd9a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: ShuoX Liu Date: Wed, 28 Mar 2012 15:19:11 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] cpuidle: add a sysfs entry to disable specific C state for debug purpose. Some C states of new CPU might be not good. One reason is BIOS might configure them incorrectly. To help developers root cause it quickly, the patch adds a new sysfs entry, so developers could disable specific C state manually. In addition, C state might have much impact on performance tuning, as it takes much time to enter/exit C states, which might delay interrupt processing. With the new debug option, developers could check if a deep C state could impact performance and how much impact it could cause. Also add this option in Documentation/cpuidle/sysfs.txt.
