[PATCH v2 1/2] ARM: configs: multi_v5: Enable the TEO cpuidle governor
From: Linus Walleij
Date: Thu Nov 05 2026 - 07:17:55 EST
The TEO governor introduced in commit b26bf6ab716f ("cpuidle: New
timer events oriented governor for tickless systems") takes a different
approach to idle-state prediction from menu. The governor gives a
better behaviour than the current default for tickless idle systems,
and for the multi-platform configs that enable tickless idle, this
should be the default governor.
multi_v5_defconfig already enables CPU_IDLE and NO_HZ_IDLE. Selecting
CPU_IDLE_GOV_TEO suppresses Kconfig's automatic menu selection, making
TEO the default governor for this tickless configuration.
