Finding mobile phones using linux OS and supporting PASR
Hello,
I was studying mobile power management and got feature in mobile ram called 'Partial Array Self Refresh'(PASR). I searched for a mobile phone having linux OS supporting this feature but did not get a one. Can anyone please tell me that is this feature supported in current linux mobile phones? Regards, Shreyas. |
Did a quick search on "linux phone" and found the "linux mobile phone showcase" here
http://www.linuxdevices.com/articles/AT9423084269.html A quick look shows Motorola, Samsung and others with "Linux Mobile" Also did a google on the same and found a ton of stuff including the Linux Phone System Forum (LiPS) http://www.linuxdevices.com/articles/AT9423084269.html |
Not able to find whether these support PASR
Hi,
Glad to see that world has not left me alone. I found these mobiles and searched several opensource mobiles like openmoko and also studied different data sheets from manufacturers. But the problem is that no manufacturer is saying that it's product supports PASR feature of mobile DDR ram in software. Can anyone please give some hint..? Regards, Shreyasdm. |
when I googled pasr I found this which indicates that PASR has not been implemented yet, Read from the fifth line starting with the words "This has not happened---"

But what after 2007?
Hi,
Thanks John for efforts taken in this thread. I found the original document from which John has taken the quote. It was an Intel project for Handheld devices. This document is published in 2007. Do someone know that after 2007, any efforts taken in this direction? By the way, assuming that no efforts are done in this direction or the efforts taken are failed, I am thinking of doing this project. But, the project requires one open source mobile handset e.g. openmoko, android that is currently not available to me ( and also costlier !!) and if emulator is used, then we cannot estimate the actual power saving. Is there any other way round...? Regards, Shreyasdm. |
Has anyone made any progress on this topic?
