Greg, here's a few paragraphs about the power management code I'm working on. The OpPoint patch set is a fully functionaly power management solution, from kernel operating state support to userland power manager.
Thanks for the summary, but it was a bit longer than just "one paragraph" :)
OpPoint constructs operating points for all supported frequency, voltage and suspend states for PC and SoC solutions running Linux. OpPoint does not break or replace cpufreq. It leverages cpufreq code to provide the same driver scaling functions when cpu frequency changes affect drivers.
So it works with cpufreq? That's a good thing, as it is a requirement. We can't just break current usages.
OpPoint is a fully functional solution ready for testing and evaluation
in Andrew's or your tree.
The kernel patches are available at:
http://source.mvista.com/~dsingleton/2.6.1-rc6I get a 404 with that link :( Care to resend your patches in the proper format, through email so that we can see them, and possibly get some testing in -mm if they look sane? thanks, greg k-h
