Thanks for the explanation.

I was just referring following the source code.

https://github.com/hardkernel/linux/blob/odroidxu3-3.10.y/arch/arm/mach-exynos/cpuidle-exynos5422.c

Ah, thanks for the pointer. So for my information, is that driver not working with the exynos5422 ?

It seem that cpufreq and cpuidle go hand in hand.

At the first glance, there is a dependency with the cluster power state. It is not allowed to enter the cluster power down if another subsystem deny it. The driver itself is a pack of hacks based on cpuidle legacy code and wildly backported from older kernels with arbitrary latency and residency values.
