b65ce83f - i7300_idle: Remove this driver

Fri, 18 Nov 2016 06:23:17 +0000

i7300_idle: Remove this driverIn preparation for removing the idle_notifier, remove its only user, thei7300_idle driver.i7300_idle was deployed in 2008 to reduce idle memory power on systemsusing the i7300 chipset. The driver worked by throttling thefully-buffered DIMMs during idle periods using the IOAT DMA engine.The driver ran only on the i7300 chip-set, and no other hardware has usedthis mechanism. The driver no longer has a maintainer.Removing this driver will increase idle power on i7300 systems when theyrun the new kernel without the driver.Signed-off-by: Len Brown Acked-by: Ingo Molnar Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/ad6a044e57cc75f44cc8621abe846e58f7882243.1479449716.git.len.brown@intel.comSigned-off-by: Thomas Gleixner List of files: /linux-6.15/drivers/idle/Kconfig

ebd326ce - drivers/idle: remove depends on CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL

Thu, 17 Jan 2013 02:53:38 +0000

drivers/idle: remove depends on CONFIG_EXPERIMENTALThe CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL config item has not carried much meaning for awhile now and is almost always enabled by default. As agreed during theLinux kernel summit, remove it from any "depends on" lines in Kconfigs.Cc: Len Brown Signed-off-by: Kees Cook Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman List of files: /linux-6.15/drivers/idle/Kconfig

6ce9cd86 - intel_idle: disable module support

Sat, 14 Aug 2010 18:40:36 +0000

intel_idle: disable module supportRight now the module capability is cauing more troublethan it is worth. At least one distro built intel_idle as a modulewhere it lost the init race with ACPI, making it useless.Make intel_idle bool so that if you select it, you will use it.We can restore module capability after cpuidle is enhancedto handle run-time changing of idle drivers.Signed-off-by: Len Brown List of files: /linux-6.15/drivers/idle/Kconfig

26717172 - intel_idle: native hardware cpuidle driver for latest Intel processors

Mon, 08 Mar 2010 19:07:30 +0000

intel_idle: native hardware cpuidle driver for latest Intel processorsThis EXPERIMENTAL driver supersedes acpi_idle onIntel Atom Processors, Intel Core i3/i5/i7 Processorsand associated Intel Xeon processors.It does not support the Intel Core2 processor or earlier.For kernels configured with ACPI, CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=yallows intel_idle to probe before the ACPI processor driver.Booting with "intel_idle.max_cstate=0" disables intel_idleand the system will fall back on ACPI's "acpi_idle".Typical Linux distributions load ACPI processor module early,making CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=m not easily useful on ACPI platforms.intel_idle probes all processors at module_init time.Processors that are hot-added later will be limitedto using C1 in idle.Signed-off-by: Len Brown List of files: /linux-6.15/drivers/idle/Kconfig

27471fdb - i7300_idle driver v1.55

Thu, 09 Oct 2008 18:45:22 +0000

i7300_idle driver v1.55The Intel 7300 Memory Controller supports dynamic throttling of memory which canbe used to save power when system is idle. This driver does the memorythrottling when all CPUs are idle on such a system.Refer to "Intel 7300 Memory Controller Hub (MCH)" datasheetfor the config space description.Signed-off-by: Andy Henroid Signed-off-by: Len Brown Signed-off-by: Venkatesh Pallipadi List of files: /linux-6.15/drivers/idle/Kconfig
