Till now suspend-to-idle has not been able to save much more energy than runtime PM because of timer interrupts that periodically bring CPUs out of idle while they are waiting for a wakeup interrupt. Of course, the timer interrupts are not wakeup ones, so the handling of them can be deferred until a real wakeup interrupt happens, but at the same time we don't want to mass-expire timers at that point. The solution is to suspend the entire timekeeping when the last CPU is entering an idle state and resume it when the first CPU goes out of idle. That has to be done with care, though, so as to avoid accessing suspended clocksources etc. end we need extra support from idle drivers for that. This series of commits adds support for quiescing timers during suspend-to-idle and adds the requisite callbacks to intel_idle and the ACPI cpuidle driver. / -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAABCAAGBQJU4PNaAAoJEILEb/54YlRxgjsP/0UbDGbltVyM8VFhsobqhOni thKJTJsqWqYgsPfTufbOGyvP6zskbsarDlzCXoKXuHaynIqcxY8xfZvMdcQr1j0S nhKdqv4R6qlP3w2cFxXVZwhw21X3YO1zIxpi5Do1HdVuWoOvxq8Dk4cU8MrgOJC0 6ThC9Q7klheV4tY6Narlmmf6sX5O+S/EaqnupESSG4cqxNmlPw5AguLviBaUNVAY RSjUX8LAce05bOIGEpaFY+vUws+jlU7/T/GEajquEsGF9zalh2CsWso5nQvilxrJ 22MVqXUyHaXmTC+U7nV78qRkavR6zyr3v/JBDse56qRI1mFlmyvGh8mE5ukmpqJE Cg5rRC68o71xlBSVGhKW3Os2ks2Nenj2NLltrTyuh43OBJ691TaLsZnKh5nYt/MW MZdqRRjIDTMF+/P1u4wY8S63labrrmp7w4T720CgaZCLJ/9VfZQuqKXTTm2R5/II eDhFvdYXoP2748uUOn5sOr5/o0xhnMdaxykZZxE3IkSpOpIV1Mo2HWTIyDYXlILP 0OuJUUZFZtFOjWGCPn3YgoFT94C3nlO1vkXw//44okTUiUaaOZz+VWDF4fxdVeLR 8NGTe+/QzEq+2lbs+ZWRSM1hPukOntFcwCgWXFiqh9x2F00LAw9JpkiKBujxTjUV m2WstYaML3W7gBMyhxg0 =55Jb -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'suspend-to-idle-3.20-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm Pull suspend-to-idle updates from Rafael Wysocki: "Suspend-to-idle timer quiescing support for v3.20-rc1 Until now suspend-to-idle has not been able to save much more energy than runtime PM because of timer interrupts that periodically bring CPUs out of idle while they are waiting for a wakeup interrupt.
