Hello, I am using tickless kernel, and cpuidle using menu governer. Is there a way to control minimum idle time before getting into sleep ? I noticed that sometimes there is degredation in performance becuase cpuidle gets into sleep. I've noticed this behaviour with iperf bandwidth test with small packet only. Is there a way to control the minimum time of idle before deciding of sleep. I assume that if I have such control, I can enlarge this time, and so the iperf bandwidth test with small packets shall never get into sleep state. Thank you! Ran
