![]() During the comparative study of cpuidle governors, it is noticed that the menu governor does not select CEDE state in some scenarios even though when the sleep duration of the CPU exceeds the target residency of the CEDE idle state this is because the CPU exits the snooze "polling" state when snooze time limit is reached in the snooze_loop(), which is not a real wake up and it just means that the polling state selection was not adequate. cpuidle governors rely on CPUIDLE_FLAG_POLLING flag to be set for the polling states to handle the condition mentioned above. Hence, set the CPUIDLE_FLAG_POLLING flag for snooze state (polling state) in powerpc arch to make the cpuidle governor work as expected.

README
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
