Tomasz's patch is correct - currently only Exynos4210 and Exynos5250 work fine with AFTR mode and upstream kernel (AFTR gets triggered by offlining CPUs other than CPU0). [ Exynos4x12 and Exynos3250 need secure firmware support (patches for this need to be reworked on top of recent PM/firmware/cpuidle changes). Exynos5410 should use big_little cpuidle driver. ] Best regards, -- Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz Samsung R&D Institute Poland Samsung Electronics -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
