Yes, We enable irqs explicitly while entering snooze loop and we always have interrupts enabled in the snooze state. For NAP state, we exit out of this state with interrupts enabled so we do not need an explicit enable of irqs. > On 02/07/2014 06:47 AM, Nicolas Pitre wrote: >> On Thu, 6 Feb 2014, Preeti U Murthy wrote: >> >>> Hi Daniel, >>> >>> On 02/06/2014 09:55 PM, Daniel Lezcano wrote: >>>> Hi Nico, >>>> >>>> >>>> On 6 February 2014 14:16, Nicolas Pitre wrote: >>>> >>>>> The core idle loop now takes care of it. >>>>> >>>>> Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre >>>>> --- >>>>> arch/powerpc/platforms/powernv/setup.c | 13 +------------ >>>>> 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 12 deletions(-) >>>>> >>>>> diff --git a/arch/powerpc/platforms/powernv/setup.c >>>>> b/arch/powerpc/platforms/powernv/setup.c >>>>> index 21166f65c9..a932feb290 100644 >>>>> --- a/arch/powerpc/platforms/powernv/setup.c >>>>> +++ b/arch/powerpc/platforms/powernv/setup.c >>>>> @@ -26,7 +26,6 @@ >>>>> #include >>>>> #include >>>>> #include >>>>> -#include >>>>> >>>>> #include >>>>> #include >>>>> @@ -217,16 +216,6 @@ static int __init pnv_probe(void) >>>>> return 1; >>>>> } >>>>> >>>>> -void powernv_idle(void) >>>>> -{ >>>>> - /* Hook to cpuidle framework if available, else >>>>> - * call on default platform idle code >>>>> - */ >>>>> - if (cpuidle_idle_call()) { >>>>> - power7_idle(); >>>>> - } >>>>> > > drivers/cpuidle/cpuidle-powernv.c | 4 ++++ > 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/drivers/cpuidle/cpuidle-powernv.c b/drivers/cpuidle/cpuidle-powernv.c > index 78fd174..130f081 100644 > --- a/drivers/cpuidle/cpuidle-powernv.c > +++ b/drivers/cpuidle/cpuidle-powernv.c > @@ -31,11 +31,13 @@ static int snooze_loop(struct cpuidle_device *dev, > set_thread_flag(TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG); > > while (!need_resched()) { > + ppc64_runlatch_off(); ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ We could move this before the while() loop. It would ideal to turn off latch when we enter snooze and turn it on when we are about to exit, rather than doing it over and over in the while loop. > HMT_low(); > HMT_very_low(); > } > > HMT_medium(); > + ppc64_runlatch_on(); > clear_thread_flag(TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG); > smp_mb(); > return index; > @@ -45,7 +47,9 @@ static int nap_loop(struct cpuidle_device *dev, > struct cpuidle_driver *drv, > int index) > { > + ppc64_runlatch_off(); > power7_idle(); > + ppc64_runlatch_on(); > return index; > } > > Thanks > > Regards > Preeti U Murthy > Regards, Deepthi
