  3. Low Power Idle Table (LPIT)
  4. ===========================
  5. To enumerate platform Low Power Idle states, Intel platforms are using
  6. “Low Power Idle Table” (LPIT). More details about this table can be
  7. downloaded from:
  8. https://www.uefi.org/sites/default/files/resources/Intel_ACPI_Low_Power_S0_Idle.pdf
  9. Residencies for each low power state can be read via FFH
  10. (Function fixed hardware) or a memory mapped interface.
  11. On platforms supporting S0ix sleep states, there can be two types of
  12. residencies:
  13. - CPU PKG C10 (Read via FFH interface)
  14. - Platform Controller Hub (PCH) SLP_S0 (Read via memory mapped interface)
  15. The following attributes are added dynamically to the cpuidle
  16. sysfs attribute group::
  17. /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuidle/low_power_idle_cpu_residency_us
  18. /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuidle/low_power_idle_system_residency_us
  19. The "low_power_idle_cpu_residency_us" attribute shows time spent
  20. by the CPU package in PKG C10
  21. The "low_power_idle_system_residency_us" attribute shows SLP_S0
  22. residency, or system time spent with the SLP_S0# signal asserted.
  23. This is the lowest possible system power state, achieved only when CPU is in
  24. PKG C10 and all functional blocks in PCH are in a low power state.
