Just to ensure that any OMAP changes have not introduced the regression I merged all Tony's pull request on my branch and tried it out. OMAP changes are fine and coupled idle continue to work. Started bisecting the commits. For bisect I have to create a series which is not dependent on Len's cpuidle updates. First round of bisect was not successful so tried one more time. Was very close to narrowing down on commit but then encountered set of commits where either CPUIDLE itself is broken(deeper C-states are not getting attempted) or I get softIRQ 08 pending error. The last bad commit in bisect was ... [8682df25ca9afd3aac30f2c72d00bd98de2118e8] Merge branch 'fortglx/3.4/rtc' of git://git.linaro.org/people/jstultz/linux into timers/core So far looks like, one of below series has introduced a race which is getting highlighted with coupled cpuidle patchset. 9b612fa Merge branch 'fortglx/3.4/clocksource' of git://git.linaro.org/people/jstultz/linux into timers/core 8682df2 Merge branch 'fortglx/3.4/rtc' of git://git.linaro.org/people/jstultz/linux into timers/core 97ac984 Merge branch 'fortglx/3.4/time' of git://git.linaro.org/people/jstultz/linux into timers/core Will try to continue the debug tomorrow. let me know if you find some thing interesting in your day time.
