Power Management and Energy Awareness track

Thursday, September 14, 2017 from 9:30am – 12:30pm
Platinum C
 

The Linux Plumbers 2017 Power Management and Energy-awareness track focuses on topics related to power management frameworks, task scheduling in relation to power/energy optimization, and platform power management mechanisms. The goal is to facilitate cross framework and cross platform discussions that can help improve power and energy-awareness in Linux.

* Enable the runtime PM centric path for ACPI

What are the benefits of using the runtime PM centric path for system sleep - and how does it impacts the ACPI PM domain!?

Ulf Hansson

* Exploring aperf/mperf monitors on ARM systems

With newer ARM platforms implementing some related counters, can we make use of them until interface is completely standardized ?

* Scheduling under CPU capacity constraints

The potential difference in max and delivered CPU performance (capacity) is growing (thermal and peak current management), can we keep ignoring it, or should load-balancing factor the constraints in?

* The quest for faster Linux suspend/resume

With test result from analyze_suspend tool, we will share some of the key issues fixed, and those still outstanding, especially some typical failures, which are likely to be repeated.
