Could probably do:

We could get rid of most of the ifdefs if you changed the header file to be:

#ifdef HAVE_LIBCPUPOWER_SUPPORT
int save_cpu_idle_disable_state(unsigned int cpu);
int restore_cpu_idle_disable_state(unsigned int cpu);
void free_cpu_idle_disable_states(void);
int set_deepest_cpu_idle_state(unsigned int cpu, unsigned int state);
static inline have_libcpower_support(void) { return 1; }
#else
static inline int save_cpu_idle_disable_state(unsigned int cpu) { return -1 }
static inline int restore_cpu_idle_disable_state(unsigned int cpu) { return -1; }
static inline void free_cpu_idle_disable_states(void) { }
static inline int set_deepest_cpu_idle_state(unsigned int cpu, unsigned int state) { return -1 }
static inline have_libcpower_support(void) { return 0; }
#endif /* HAVE_LIBCPUPOWER_SUPPORT */


Then the above can simply be:

	if (params->deepest_idle_state >= -1) {

		if (!have_libcpower_support()) {
			err_msg("rtla built without libcpupower, --deepest-idle-state is not supported\n");
			goto out_free;
		}

		for (i = 0; i < sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF); i++) {
			if (params->cpus && !CPU_ISSET(i, &params->monitored_cpus))
				continue;
			if (save_cpu_idle_disable_state(i) < 0) {
				err_msg("Could not save cpu idle state.\n");
				goto out_free;
			}
			if (set_deepest_cpu_idle_state(i, params->deepest_idle_state) < 0) {
				err_msg("Could not set deepest cpu idle state.\n");
				goto out_free;
			}
		}

Makes the code much nicer to look at.

You would think gcc may optimize it, but I don't have that much confidence
it can or would. You may want to change that to:

		int nr_cpus = sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF);

		for (i = 0; i < nr_cpus; i++) {

Otherwise you may be calling that sysconf() for each iteration of the loop.
