My coupled cpuidle patches were acked and temporarily in Len's next/Linus pull branch, but were later dropped when the first pull request to Linus was rejected. I asked Len to either put the coupled cpuidle patches into his next branch, or let me host them so people could base SoC branches off of them and let Len pull them later, but got no response. If you do start a cpuidle for-next branch, can you pull my coupled-cpuidle branch: The following changes since commit 76e10d158efb6d4516018846f60c2ab5501900bc: Linux 3.4 (2012-05-20 15:29:13 -0700) are available in the git repository at: https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/common.git coupled-cpuidle Colin Cross (4): cpuidle: refactor out cpuidle_enter_state cpuidle: fix error handling in __cpuidle_register_device cpuidle: add support for states that affect multiple cpus cpuidle: coupled: add parallel barrier function drivers/cpuidle/Kconfig | 3 + drivers/cpuidle/Makefile | 1 + drivers/cpuidle/coupled.c | 715 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/cpuidle/cpuidle.c | 68 ++++- drivers/cpuidle/cpuidle.h | 32 ++ include/linux/cpuidle.h | 11 + 6 files changed, 813 insertions(+), 17 deletions(-) create mode 100644 drivers/cpuidle/coupled.c -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
