The menu governor uses five different factors to pick the idle state: - the user configured latency_req - the time until the next timer (next_timer_us) - the typical sleep interval, as measured recently - an estimate of sleep time by dividing next_timer_us by an observed factor - a load corrected version of the above, divided again by load Only the first three items are known with enough confidence that we can use them to consider polling, instead of an actual CPU idle state, because the cost of being wrong about polling can be excessive power use. The latter two are used in the menu governor's main selection loop, and can result in choosing a shallower idle state when the system is expected to be busy again soon. This pushes a busy system in the "performance" direction of the performance<>power tradeoff, when choosing between idle states, but stays more strictly on the "power" state when deciding between polling and C1.
