from idle over the next tick. - Add a new MD routine, cpu_wake_idle() to wakeup idle threads who are suspended in cpu specific states. This function can fail and cause the scheduler to fall back to another mechanism (ipi). - Implement support for mwait in cpu_idle() on i386/amd64 machines that support it. mwait is a higher performance way to synchronize cpus as compared to hlt & ipis. - Allow selecting the idle routine by name via sysctl machdep.idle. This replaces machdep.cpu_idle_hlt. Only idle routines supported by the current machine are permitted. Sponsored by: Nokia |
