Subject: [PATCH 2/2] cpuidle / menu: Return error code if there are no suitable states
Date: Sun, 27 Apr 2014 14:55:30 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <6832089.A5AOPipfbA@vostro.rjw.lan> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2471963.urOyfY8mOG@vostro.rjw.lan>

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

If there is a PM QoS latency limit and all of the sufficiently shallow
C-states are disabled, the cpuidle menu governor returns 0 which on
some systems is CPUIDLE_DRIVER_STATE_START and shouldn't be returned
if that C-state has been disabled.

Fix the issue by modifying the menu governor to return an error code
in such situations.
