Hello,

On the topic of C-state statistics:

For 11.09 there are BP:s to A) fix powertop for ARM and B) create an
Android app for running powertop in Android. By that I mean executing
a reconfigured but upstreamable powertop as a service and control it
from the app.

I'd like input on usage patterns for powertop from all you PM experts
in order to design that app as useful as possible. I'd imagine that
the actual display (ncurses-based on other platforms) is cute and sure
we should have it, but is it really that useful? Isn't the most
important thing to get statistics between a starting and an ending
time while some test or use case is executed?

So I am thinking that prio 1 is "tap to start/stop logging" and saving
the set of result vectors for each measurement cycle to a file that
can be taken out and processed off-line into a diagram or whatever.

Other ideas?

/Tony
