+ * Timer events oriented CPU idle governor
+ *
+ * Copyright (C) 2018 Intel Corporation
+ * Author: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
+ *
+ * The idea of this governor is based on the observation that on many systems
+ * timer events are two or more orders of magnitude more frequent than any
+ * other interrupts, so they are likely to be the most significant source of CPU
+ * wakeups from idle states. Moreover, information about what happened in the
+ * (relatively recent) past can be used to estimate whether or not the deepest
+ * idle state with target residency within the time to the closest timer is
+ * likely to be suitable for the upcoming idle time of the CPU and, if not, then
+ * which of the shallower idle states to choose.
+ *
+ * Of course, non-timer wakeup sources are more important in some use cases and
+ * they can be covered by taking a few most recent idle time intervals of the
+ * CPU into account. However, even in that case it is not necessary to consider
+ * idle duration values greater than the time till the closest timer, as the
+ * patterns that they may belong to produce average values close enough to
+ * the time till the closest timer (sleep length) anyway.
+ *
+ * Thus this governor estimates whether or not the upcoming idle time of the CPU
+ * is likely to be significantly shorter than the sleep length and selects an
+ * idle state for it in accordance with that, as follows:
+ *
+ * - Find an idle state on the basis of the sleep length and state statistics
+ * collected over time:
+ *
+ * o Find the deepest idle state whose target residency is less than or equal
+ * to the sleep length.
+ *
+ * o Select it if it matched both the sleep length and the observed idle
+ * duration in the past more often than it matched the sleep length alone
+ * (i.e. the observed idle duration was significantly shorter than the sleep
+ * length matched by it).
+ *
+ * o Otherwise, select the shallower state with the greatest matched "early"
+ * wakeups metric.
+ *
+ * - If the majority of the most recent idle duration values are below the
+ * target residency of the idle state selected so far, use those values to
+ * compute the new expected idle duration and find an idle state matching it
+ * (which has to be shallower than the one selected so far).
