This more or less is a renaming and moving of functions and should not
introduce any functional change.
cpupower was built from cpufrequtils (which had a C library providing easy
access to cpu frequency platform info). In the meantime it got enhanced
by quite some neat cpuidle userspace tools.
Now the cpu idle functions have been separated and added to the cpupower.so
library.
So beside an already existing public header file:
cpufreq.h
cpupower now also exports these cpu idle functions in:
cpuidle.h
Here again pasted for better review of the interfaces:
======================================
int cpuidle_is_state_disabled(unsigned int cpu,
unsigned int idlestate);
int cpuidle_state_disable(unsigned int cpu, unsigned int idlestate,
unsigned int disable);
unsigned long cpuidle_state_latency(unsigned int cpu,
unsigned int idlestate);
unsigned long cpuidle_state_usage(unsigned int cpu,
unsigned int idlestate);
unsigned long long cpuidle_state_time(unsigned int cpu,
unsigned int idlestate);
char *cpuidle_state_name(unsigned int cpu,
unsigned int idlestate);
char *cpuidle_state_desc(unsigned int cpu,
unsigned int idlestate);
unsigned int cpuidle_state_count(unsigned int cpu);
char *cpuidle_get_governor(void);
char *cpuidle_get_driver(void);

This patch tries to creates a common structure initialization
within the cpupower tool.
Previously the ``struct option`` was initialized
using `designated initializer` technique which was
not needed. There were conflicting initialization methods seen with
bench/main.c & others.

cpupower idle-set -D <latency>
currently only disables all C-states that have a higher latency than the
specified <latency>. But if deep sleep states were already disabled and
have a lower latency, they should get enabled again.
For example:
This call:
cpupower idle-set -D 30
disables all C-states with a higher or equal latency than 30.
If one then calls:
cpupower idle-set -D 100
C-states with a latency between 30-99 will get enabled again with this patch
now. It is ensured that only C-states with a latency of 100 and higher are
disabled.

Example:
cpupower idle-set -d 3
will disable C-state 3 on all processors (set commands are active on
all CPUs by default), same as:
cpupower -c all idle-set -d 3
