With the tegra3 and the big.LITTLE [1] new architectures, several cpus
with different characteristics (latencies and states) can co-exists on the
system.

The cpuidle framework has the limitation of handling only identical cpus.

This patch removes this limitation by introducing the multiple driver support
for cpuidle.

This option is configurable at compile time and should be enabled for the
architectures mentioned above. So there is no impact for the other platforms
if the option is disabled. The option defaults to 'n'. Note the multiple drivers
support is also compatible with the existing drivers, even if just one driver is
needed, all the cpu will be tied to this driver using an extra small chunk of
processor memory.

The multiple driver support use a per-cpu driver pointer instead of a global
variable and the accessor to this variable are done from a cpu context.

In order to keep the compatibility with the existing drivers, the function
'cpuidle_register_driver' and 'cpuidle_unregister_driver' will register
the specified driver for all the cpus.

The sysfs output for the 'current_driver' is changed when this option is
set by giving the drivers per cpu.

eg.
cpu0: acpi_idle
cpu1: acpi_idle

but if the option is disabled, the output will remain the same.

cbarg.count should be initialized to 0.

Actually, with this initialization, all the fields will be initialized
to 0, except 'buf'.

However, it would be good to initialize count explicitly so as to show
that we care about the initial value of it.

Ok, I will change that in a V2.

Rafael, you're right, this approach makes more sense IMO.

Well, I'm glad that you agree. :-)

I'm sorry I haven't posted any comments about the latest series,
I'll do my best to review it later this week.

Ok, cool. Thanks!

I guess it is too late to have this material for v3.7, right ?

Yes, it is too late.

Is this allowed? I thought sysfs files can output only 1 line of data?

Ah yeah :)

Does it make sense to put the following files:

/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpuidle/driver
 => acpi_idle
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpuidle/driver
 => acpi_idle

and the content of the file:

/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuidle/current_driver will show the driver
associated with current cpu ?

Sounds like a reasonable idea.

It would be better to change that to be called as cpuidle_get_cpu_driver(dev),
since dev is a cpuidle_device already.

I'm not a big fan of #ifdef blocks inside of functions.  In my opinion it's
better to put entire functions under #ifdef blocks.  So, for example, in this
particular case I would do"

#ifdef CONFIG_CPU_IDLE_MULTIPLE_DRIVERS
static void __cpuidle_set_cpu_driver(struct cpuidle_driver *drv, int cpu)
{
	per_cpu(cpuidle_drivers, cpu) = drv;
}
#else
static void __cpuidle_set_cpu_driver(struct cpuidle_driver *drv, int cpu)
{
	cpuidle_curr_driver = drv;
}
#endif

I wonder if this is going to work in all cases.  For example, is there any
guarantee that the CPU numbers start from 0 and that there are no gaps?

Here I'd make the definition of __cpuidle_for_each_driver() depend on
whether or not CONFIG_CPU_IDLE_MULTIPLE_DRIVERS is set.

I'm slightly cautious about using smp_processor_id() above.
get_cpu()/put_cpu() is the preferred way of doing this nowadays (although
this particular code is under the spinlock, so it should be OK).

Thanks Rafael for the review.

I took into account all your remarks for the V2.

AFAICS, the cpumask.h is not assuming the cpu numbers start from zero
and they are contiguous.

I will fix this reverse loop, thanks for spotting this.

yes, get_cpu does preempt_disable() and smp_processor_id()
As spin_lock does also preempt_disable() that should be ok.
But I changed the code to use the preferred way.

Cool, thanks!

I've seen your new version and I'm going to look deeper into it in the next
few days, but I will be travelling from tomorrow through the end of the next
week, so I may be even slower to respond than usually. Sorry about that.

Actually, the patchset is just sysfs cleanup for the multiple drivers
support.
The patches are trivial IMO. If you think they are ok and they are
merged, I will send the multiple drivers patchset V2 on top of them.

No problem, I understand.
