[PATCH v2 4/6] ARM: firmware: add prepare_idle() operation

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

 



Some firmwares do not put the CPU into idle mode themselves, but still
need to be informed that the CPU is about to enter idle mode before this
happens. Add a prepare_idle() operation to the firmware_ops structure to
handle such cases.
