Correct. In replying to the above, I was thinking about power and
performance management of components  - CPU (C/P), and device (D)
specific power/performance states - not the overall system (S) state,
and I went off on a tangent. That was off-topic. For the actual topic at
hand, that of global sleep, you are correct that only G0 (S0) and S5 are
really defined today. Though I do think that the PCC might be used to
actually implement overall system sleep state transitions later.

Jon.
