[PATCH] cpuidle: sysfs: Display idle state enter function name
Posted by Aaron Tomlin 1 week, 6 days ago
This patch introduces a read-only "enter_function" attribute to the
cpuidle sysfs interface. It exports the kernel symbolic name of the
enter callback responsible for executing the CPU idle state entry
(state->enter). It allows users to reliably map an abstract C-state
(e.g., "C1") to its concrete kernel implementation
(e.g., acpi_idle_do_entry or poll_idle).
