From f039b754714a422959027cb18bb33760eb8153f0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andi Kleen Date: Wed, 2 May 2007 19:27:12 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] x86: Don't use MWAIT on AMD Family 10 It doesn't put the CPU into deeper sleep states, so it's better to use the standard idle loop to save power. But allow to reenable it anyways for benchmarking. I also removed the obsolete idle=halt on i386 Cc: andreas.herrmann@amd.com Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen --- include/asm-i386/processor.h | 2 ++ include/asm-x86_64/proto.h | 2 ++ 2 files changed, 4 insertions(+) (limited to 'include') diff --git a/include/asm-i386/processor.h b/include/asm-i386/processor.h index 9d895cc2f312..882d3f8fbbac 100644 --- a/include/asm-i386/processor.h +++ b/include/asm-i386/processor.h @@ -779,4 +779,6 @@ extern int sysenter_setup(void); extern void cpu_set_gdt(int); extern void cpu_init(void); +extern int force_mwait; + #endif /* __ASM_I386_PROCESSOR_H */ diff --git a/include/asm-x86_64/proto.h b/include/asm-x86_64/proto.h index 3f8f285138d2..98063bcb3b33 100644 --- a/include/asm-x86_64/proto.h +++ b/include/asm-x86_64/proto.h @@ -119,6 +119,8 @@ extern int gsi_irq_sharing(int gsi); extern void smp_local_timer_interrupt(void); +extern int force_mwait; + long do_arch_prctl(struct task_struct *task, int code, unsigned long addr); void i8254_timer_resume(void); -- cgit v1.2.2
