[PATCH 2/2] x86/idle: use dynamic halt poll

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Yang Zhang <yang.zhang.wz@xxxxxxxxx>

use dynamic poll to reduce the cost when the event is not occurred during
poll. The idea is similar to current dynamic halt poll inside KVM:
Before entering idle, we will record the time. After wakeup from idle
(nomally, this is in interrupt handler), we will record the time too.
Then we will check whether we need to grow/shrink the poll time depands
on how long the CPU stay inside idle state.

There are two new sysctl to change poll time dynamically:
poll_shrink, poll_grow
