[PATCH v1 08/10] intel_idle: Allow ACPI _CST to be used for selected known processors

From: Rafael J. Wysocki
Date: Fri Dec 13 2019 - 04:28:16 EST


From: "Rafael J. Wysocki" <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx>

Update the intel_idle driver to get the C-states information from ACPI
_CST in some cases in which the processor is known to the driver, as long as
that information is available and the new use_acpi flag is set in the
profile of the processor in question.

In the cases when there is a specific table of C-states for the given
processor in the driver, that table is used as the primary source of
information on the available C-states, but if ACPI _CST is present,
the C-states that are not listed by it will not be enabled by default
(they still can be enabled later by user space via sysfs, though).

The new CPUIDLE_FLAG_ALWAYS_ENABLE flag can be used for marking
C-states that should be enabled by default even if they are not
listed by ACPI _CST.

Changes from the RFC version:
- Subject and changelog update.
- Call the new state flag CPUIDLE_FLAG_ALWAYS_ENABLE (instead of _IGNORE_ACPI).
