Find a skylake machine. - in my case Lenovo x1 carbon gen 4. In my case with an NVME drive. 2. run powertop, and switch to idle stats tab 3. do nothing. *(as in let the machine idle till the cores regularly reach low power states. 4. Watch the watts fly. On my machine the package never gets into any power state other than PC2. Expected results: PC3-PC10 power states should all show some usage. I also tried the mainline build of 4.6-rc7 with no benefits. Public conversations about the issue https://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/42156.html https://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/41713.html As far as I can tell having the nvme drive is part of the overall problem here. Please keep this case to skylake + nvme. Skylake + sata appears to have a number of fixes in the 4.6 and newer kernels that enable some of the higher sleep states, but I have not tested with a sata drive. Those fixes as of testing 4.6-rc7 do not resolve this issue with users who have nvme drives.
