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);

larger sysfs data (>255 bytes) was truncated and thus used improperly

CPU power consumption vs performance tuning is no longer
limited to CPU frequency switching anymore: deep sleep states,
traditional dynamic frequency scaling and hidden turbo/boost
frequencies are tied close together and depend on each other.
The first two exist on different architectures like PPC, Itanium and
ARM, the latter (so far) only on X86. On X86 the APU (CPU+GPU) will
only run most efficiently if CPU and GPU has proper power management
in place.
Users and Developers want to have *one* tool to get an overview what
their system supports and to monitor and debug CPU power management
in detail. The tool should compile and work on as many architectures
as possible.
Once this tool stabilizes a bit, it is intended to replace the
Intel-specific tools in tools/power/x86
