this single PM QoS request to be updated regardless of which user space
process does that. In other words, this PM QoS request is shared by the entire
user space, so access to the file associated with it needs to be arbitrated
to avoid confusion. [Arguably, the only legitimate use of this mechanism in
practice is to pin a process to the CPU in question and let it use the
``sysfs`` interface to control the resume latency constraint for it.] It
still only is a request, however. It is a member of a priority list used to
``sysfs`` interface to control the resume latency constraint for it.] It is
still only a request, however. It is an entry in a priority list used to
determine the effective value to be set as the resume latency constraint for the
CPU in question every time the list of requests is updated this way or another
(there may be other requests coming from kernel code in that list).

Setting ``max_cstate`` to 0 causes the ``intel_idle`` initialization to fail.
The ``noacpi`` module parameter (which is recognized by ``intel_idle`` if the
kernel has been configured with ACPI support), can be set to make the driver
ignore the system's ACPI tables entirely (it is unset by default).
The ``no_acpi`` and ``use_acpi`` module parameters (recognized by ``intel_idle``
if the kernel has been configured with ACPI support) can be set to make the
driver ignore the system's ACPI tables entirely or use them for all of the
recognized processor models, respectively (they both are unset by default and
``use_acpi`` has no effect if ``no_acpi`` is set).
The value of the ``states_off`` module parameter (0 by default) represents a
list of idle states to be disabled by default in the form of a bitmask.
Namely, the positions of the bits that are set in the ``states_off`` value are
the indices of idle states to be disabled by default (as reflected by the names
of the corresponding idle state directories in ``sysfs``, :file:`state0`,
:file:`state1` ... :file:`state<i>` ..., where ``<i>`` is the index of the given
idle state; see :ref:`idle-states-representation` in :doc:`cpuidle`).
For example, if ``states_off`` is equal to 3, the driver will disable idle
states 0 and 1 by default, and if it is equal to 8, idle state 3 will be
disabled by default and so on (bit positions beyond the maximum idle state index
are ignored).
The idle states disabled this way can be enabled (on a per-CPU basis) from user
space via ``sysfs``.
