[PATCH 1/8] cpuidle: menu: fixed wrapping timers at 4.294 seconds

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

 



From: Tero Kristo <tero.kristo@xxxxxxxxx>

Cpuidle menu governor is using u32 as a temporary datatype for storing
nanosecond values which wrap around at 4.294 seconds. This causes errors
in predicted sleep times resulting in higher than should be C state
selection and increased power consumption. This also breaks cpuidle
state residency statistics.
