Hi!

Dne ponedeljek, 15. marec 2021 ob 05:32:49 CET je Samuel Holland napisal(a):
> For a CPU to enter an idle state, there must be some timer which can
> trigger an IRQ to wake it back up. The local ARM architectural timer is
> not sufficient, because that timer stops when the CPU is powered down.
> Some other CPU's ARM architectural timer can be used, but this prevents
> that other CPU from entering an idle state. So to allow all CPUs to
> enter an idle state at the same time, some MMIO timer must be available
> that is not tied to any CPU.
> 
> The basic "sun4i" timer seems most appropriate for this purpose due to
> its moderate rate, balancing precision and power consumption.
