discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx and linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
are also lists where people could be interested in such stuff.
Could you explain a bit what these ARM specific power domains are then, please.
One idea I had after seeing these:
Would it make sense to additionally add one or several device power perf event(s)?
bluetooth, wireless, usb, cameras, whatever, could register it by name,
like you've done it with the power domains.
E.g. I had a problem with 2.6.31 where bluetooth was powered up/activated at
boot time, while it got activated ondemand before. Cost me some Watts and quite
some time to find that out.
Showing perf power events when bluetooth gets activated and put into lower power
states again (and the same for other devices), sounds like a good idea?
