Complete specs, and information that says this has been a standard part of Linux since 2010: http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic.../Chdejjdj.html http://www.arm.com/products/processo.../cortex-a9.php http://www.arm.com/community/softwar...ment/linux.php |
I am Sorry TBone for unclarity of my question....
In Linux Kernel also we have power management concept....the power management concepts are based on the below items. 1) Clock Frequency 2) Power gating 3) Clock Scaling So i am try to understand the Power management architecture in Linux...how the code is designed....but i am unable to find link between Linux kernel power states to hardware power states. How it interlinked in code design. Please try to help me on this. Thanks & Regards, Siva Krishna. |

Look at the source code for ANY of the MANY power-management tools that are out there. |
Hi TbOne,
Thanks for Reply.... I am using Samsung-exynos micro-controller...in this controller we have 6 power states they are 1) Normal 2) Idle 3) Deep-Idle 4) Stop 5) Deep-Stop 6) Sleep But in linux Kenel we have only Four Power states, they are 1) Run 2) StandBy 3) ShutDown 4) Sleep So my question is How the Linux kernel 4 power states are controlled Samsung-exynos micro-controller 6 power states. How its inter-linked? Please Help me on this. Thanks & Regards Siva Krishna. |

Yes, we know what you WANT, but what you're asking for is a programming tutorial class on the Linux kernel. Which is NOT what this site is for...we can't/won't give you a programming class to teach you EXACTLY what YOU want to know. That's up to YOU to learn it, and you have been provided the tools/resources several times to do it yourself. So AGAIN, do your own research, and learn what you need. If you have a SPECIFIC QUESTION...that would be something like "I'm using Fedora 17, and have tried to compile program xxx (see code here), and it's getting error yyyy, can someone help me?"...THAT is what this site is designed for. |
