[v7,3/8] ACPI: Decouple ACPI idle and ACPI processor drivers

Message ID da1eb99c0e128a4c8160537295045164d8fde00d.1436464513.git.ashwin.chaugule@linaro.org (mailing list archive)

This patch introduces a new Kconfig symbol, ACPI_PROCESSOR_IDLE,
which is auto selected by architectures which support the ACPI
based C states for CPU Idle management.

The processor_idle driver in its present form contains declarations
specific to X86 and IA64. Since there are no reasonable defaults
for other architectures e.g. ARM64, the driver is selected only by
the arch/x86/Kconfig.

This helps in decoupling the ACPI processor_driver from the ACPI
processor_idle driver which is useful for the upcoming alternative
patchwork for controlling CPU Performance (CPPC) and CPU Idle (LPI).

In general, you need to split this series so that initially few patches
deal with all the existing Kconfig fix-ups and then introduce
PCC/PSS/CPPC related stuffs. That would help me rebase and test _LPI
support.

Hm. I tried to maintain bisectability and make it easier for you to
rebase LPI patchwork too. Let me see if I can revisit now that I'm
back from vacation. :)

How about you just drop any idle related changes so that I will handle
that to keep it simple.

Unfortunately I can't skip idle changes completely since it is tightly
coupled with the acpi_processor driver as well.

Ashwin.

True, but only for ARM64 where we haven't enabled ACPI_PROCESSOR yet in
mainline. So from that perspective, it should not cause any issue for
keeping changes bisectable on x86/ia64. You can keep these idle changes
locally for your testing. Trying to get everything at once will
definitely be problematic IMO.

Sudeep

Bisectability aside, without the idle changes to decouple it from
ACPI_PROCESSOR, the CPPC code will be non-functional. CPPC code has
been around for review publicly for almost a year and we need it to be
mainlined soon. So, given that we've converged on a solution for new
Kconfigs for Idle and PSS and that they're separate patches, why not
let it progress forwards as part of this series?

Thanks,
Ashwin.

Sorry, I didn't mean to block this series in anyway. I was just thinking
on how to post the preparatory changes to introduce _LPI. I prefer to
base it on mainline rather than this patch series and hence I made that
request.

Can you please try rebasing with Patch 2,3,6 and 9 of the V8 series?
Those should get you going for your LPI work.

Ashwin.
