I'd assume the main performance issues would be related to global PRCM register reads, rather than raw CPU cycles. So that's probably where it would make sense to focus the effort. We should also be able to optimize out a fair number of the powerdomain register reads if we cache them in the struct powerdomain. The current powerstate and next powerstate seem to be hit a lot, and those should both be cacheable. Will probably do some of this as part of the functional powerstate code. - Paul -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
