[Dynamicpower-devel] Dynamic Power Management project release

[Todd P. <tp...@mv...>]

The SourceForge Dynamic Power Management project is pleased to add
support for the Intel XScale PXA27x "Bulverde" platform on which a
number of popular cell phones and PDAs are based. See
http://sourceforge.net/projects/dynamicpower

Core

* Resynced with 2.6.13 kernel.org.

* Various cleanups, including: Remove extra dpm_unlock in
  dpm_quick_idle(); dpm_set_opt return error codes from arch set_opt
  function.  Thanks to Armin Kuster for many of these.

* Allow dpm_driver_scale() to be called in atomic contexts.

* Update constraints sysfs attributes for changed function prototypes.

* Kill dpm_md.init function pointer, not used.

OMAP

* Resynced with patch-2.6.13-omap1

* Cleanups, remove ARM speed validation code that needed dups of private
  arch stuff.

PXA27x

* First release.

* Has issues with frequent FCS + DVS (that is, combo CPU frequency and
  voltage scale), as between idle-task and task states.  v=1500 for all
  operating points, or policies that keep the same operating point at
  those frequent transitions, can workaround.

* Partial pxafb scaling support, needs other patches not upstream yet to
  work well (such as overlays).

* No pcmcia scaling yet.

* No camera scaling, but it's pretty much useless on this h/w anyway.
