What: x86 floppy disable_hlt | ||
When: 2012 | ||
Why: ancient workaround of dubious utility clutters the | ||
code used by everybody else. | ||

--------------------------- | ||
|
||
What: CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE, and its ability to call APM BIOS in idle | ||
When: 2012 | ||
Why: This optional sub-feature of APM is of dubious reliability, | ||
and ancient APM laptops are likely better served by calling HLT. | ||
Deleting CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE allows x86 to stop exporting | ||
the pm_idle function pointer to modules. | ||

---------------------------- | ||
|
||
What: x86_32 "no-hlt" cmdline param | ||
When: 2012 | ||
Why: remove a branch from idle path, simplify code used by everybody. | ||
This option disabled the use of HLT in idle and machine_halt() | ||
for hardware that was flakey 15-years ago. Today we have | ||
"idle=poll" that removed HLT from idle, and so if such a machine | ||
is still running the upstream kernel, "idle=poll" is likely sufficient. | ||
