| cpuidle drivers |
| |
| |
| |
| |
| cpuidle driver hooks into the cpuidle infrastructure and handles the |
| architecture/platform dependent part of CPU idle states. Driver |
| provides the platform idle state detection capability and also |
| has mechanisms in place to support actual entry-exit into CPU idle states. |
| |
| cpuidle driver initializes the cpuidle_device structure for each CPU device |
| and registers with cpuidle using cpuidle_register_device. |
| |
| It can also support the dynamic changes (like battery <-> AC), by using |
| cpuidle_pause_and_lock, cpuidle_disable_device and cpuidle_enable_device, |
| cpuidle_resume_and_unlock. |
