From: Chen Yu <yu.c.chen@xxxxxxxxx> commit 4e0ba5577dba686f96c1c10ef4166380667fdec7 upstream. Currently intel_idle driver gets the c-state information from ACPI _CST if the processor model is not recognized by it. However the c-state in _CST starts with index 1 which is different from the index in intel_idle driver's internal c-state table. While intel_idle_max_cstate_reached() was previously introduced to deal with intel_idle driver's internal c-state table, re-using this function directly on _CST is incorrect. Fix this by subtracting 1 from the index when checking max_cstate in the _CST case. For example, append intel_idle.max_cstate=1 in boot command line, Before the patch: grep . /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpuidle/state*/name POLL After the patch: grep . /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpuidle/state*/name /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpuidle/state0/name:POLL /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpuidle/state1/name:C1_ACPI Fixes: 18734958e9bf ("intel_idle: Use ACPI _CST for processor models without C-state tables") Reported-by: Pengfei Xu <pengfei.xu@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: 5.6+ <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> # 5.6+ Signed-off-by: Chen Yu <yu.c.chen@xxxxxxxxx> [ rjw: Changelog edits ] Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
