Revision as of 16:51, 2 March 2011
This page holds to do list, suggestions and ideas for PM improvements.
Tuned
- irqbalance for powersaving profiles
- enable sched_smt_power_savings
- enable hda_intel powersaving
- dynamic tunings for EEEPC FSB (worked on by jskarvad)
Benchmarks
- Create infrastructure for running 'real life' loads.
- Create 'real life' loads, e.g. for WWW browsing, watching video, development and whatever are users doing with their computers - similar to BLTK loads but more advanced and CPU intensive tasks.
- We can simulate web browsing via Chickenfoot, Greasemonkey, iMacros Firefox extensions (currently Chickenfoot doesn't support FF4).
- Another idea is to use the XULRunner (thanks to Pavel Křivánek for contributing the example code): http://jskarvad.fedorapeople.org/loadGenerator.zip
- Investigate available free benchmarks, e.g. AB, DOTS, Phoronix Test Suite, etc. and its usability for power management testing / comparisons. Also investigate OS independent benchmarks for inter OS comparisons.
Other
- Prepare Test Day on 2011-03-24.
- Add PM support to cronie (wrapper) to be able to postpone running of battery demanding tasks. [Work in progress]
- Add PM support to services, e.g. support for battery / AC profiles.
- Add support for XHCI (USB3) suspend. [F15?]
- Add support for DDC/CI to control settings of external LCDs. [ddccontrol packaging in progress]
- Include better integration of PM-QoS (e.g. correct support for PS-Poll).
- Tuned profiles creation from the PowerTOP suggestions.
