Subject: [PATCH] ACPI, CPU_IDLE: Add more information about C-states
Date: Mon, 11 Feb 2008 17:50:36 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080212015036.GC32468@linux-os.sc.intel.com> (raw)

From: Venkatesh Pallipadi <venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com>

Add a new sysfs entry under cpuidle states. desc - can be used by driver to
communicate to userspace any specific information about the state.
This helps in identifying the exact hardware C-states behind the ACPI C-state
definition.

Idea is to export this through powertop, which will help to map the C-state
reported by powertop to actual hardware C-state.
