As there is tools/power/x86 for some time, it would be very convenient to get cpupowerutils merged into linux-next (for now) into the tools/power/cpupower directory: Most of it is directly based on the cpufreq/cpuidle kernel subsystem and the output gathered by it should be attached to any CPU frequency/idle related kernel bug. Dominik was so kind to add the stuff to his pcmcia git tree as cpupowerutils branch. Therefore, this can easily be added by pulling from: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brodo/pcmcia-2.6.git cpupowerutils Even the MAINTAINERS file got adjusted already (thanks!): CPU POWER MONITORING SUBSYSTEM M: Dominik Brodowski M: Thomas Renninger S: Maintained F: tools/power/cpupower Stephen: I added lkml, linux-pm lists and kernel people I know working in this area. Please tell me if you can/will just pull this or whatever you need to make it happen.
