Thomas, I think the ACPI C-state names are fine the way they are. I don't understand the value proposition you have presented to replace the C-state names with ACPI C-state types. I think this would be extremely confusing, particularly since it would mean that multiple states can then appear with duplicate names. Thus I do not recommend changing the format of the name that we have been exporting since cpuidle went upstream 3 years ago. thanks, Len Brown, Intel Open Source Technology Center -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
