There were a lot of discussions on this a few months ago in context of the ACPI 4 "power aggregator" which is a similar (perhaps slightly less sophisticated) concept. While there was a lot of talk about teaching the scheduler about this the end result was just a driver which just starts real time threads and then idles in them. This is in current mainline. It might be a good idea to review these discussions in the archives. -Andi -- ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -- Speaking for myself only. _______________________________________________ linux-pm mailing list linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-pm
