Hi Michal,

at the first glance, the driver won't enter in the self refresh state.

If I am right, by checking:

/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpuidle/state1/usage, it should be always zero.

Also, I see there is self refresh but you save the cpu context, so it is
cpu shutdown no ?

In this case, 3 states would be needed, WFI, self-refresh, powerdown, no ?

The comments below applies for this driver based on linux-pm-next.

You defined XILINX_MAX_STATES as 1, it should be 2.

Remove this line, it is done by the caller.

Remove this line, that will be taken into account by the driver's
en_core_tk_irqen flag.

Don't check the index, see in the driver initialization comment below
the defaul wfi state. You will have one state entering WFI and the
xilinx_enter_idle function entering with always index 1.

Remove this line, CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIMER_STOP will tell the cpuidle
framework to handle that.

Remove these lines about time computation, that is handled by the caller.

This is initialization is done from the cpuidle_register_device. As
drv->state_count == device->state_count.
