Supporting multiple CPU idle levels in kernel cpuidle drivers cpuidle driver hooks into the cpuidle infrastructure and handles the architecture/platform dependent part of CPU idle states. Driver provides the platform idle state detection capability and also has mechanisms in place to support actual entry-exit into CPU idle states. cpuidle driver initializes the cpuidle_device structure for each CPU device and registers with cpuidle using cpuidle_register_device. |

If all the idle states are the same, the wrapper function cpuidle_register could be used instead. |

It can also support the dynamic changes (like battery <-> AC), by using cpuidle_pause_and_lock, cpuidle_disable_device and cpuidle_enable_device, cpuidle_resume_and_unlock. Interfaces: |
