Subject: [RFC PATCHC 0/3] sched/idle : find the idlest cpu with cpuidle info
The following patchset provides an interaction between cpuidle and the scheduler.
The first patch encapsulate the needed information for the scheduler in a
separate cpuidle structure. The second one stores the pointer to this structure
when entering idle. The third one, use this information to take the decision to
find the idlest cpu.
After some basic testing with hackbench, it appears there is an improvement for
the performances (small) and for the duration of the idle states (which provides
a better power saving).
The measurement has been done with the 'idlestat' tool previously posted in this
mailing list.
So the benefit is good for both sides performance and power saving.
The select_idle_sibling could be also improved in the same way.
