For what it's worth:
CPU: Intel: i7-2600K Kernel: 5.6-rc2 (teo) and + this patch set (wtteo) Note: in general, "idle" on this system is considerably more "idle" than most systems. Sample period: 5 minutes. CPU scaling driver: intel_cpufreq Governor: performance Deepest idle state: 4 (C6)
teo: Test duration 740 minutes (12.33 hours). Average processor package power: 3.84 watts Idle state 0: 4.19 / minute Idle state 1: 29.26 / minute Idle state 2: 46.71 / minute Idle state 3: 7.42 / minute Idle state 4: 1124.55 / minute Total: 2.525 idle entries per cpu per second
wtteo: Test duration 1095 minutes (18.25 hours). Average processor package power: 3.84 watts Idle state 0: 7.98 / minute Idle state 1: 30.49 / minute Idle state 2: 52.51 / minute Idle state 3: 8.65 / minute Idle state 4: 1125.33 / minute Total: 2.552 idle entries per cpu per second
The above/below data for this test is incomplete because my program doesn't process it if there are not enough state entries per sample period. (I need to fix that for this type of test.)
I have done a couple of other tests with this patch set, but nothing to report yet, as the differences have been minor so far.
