Hi, I've been informed that there is a "power-aware" version of the original idle-thread in OpenSolaris. My understanding is that this version should execute the halt-instruction, which in turn disables the clock-tree of the processor. In the original version, the idle-thread continues checking different queues etc.
As the power-aware idle-thread is not used by default, I'm wondering how I can go about replacing the original idle-thread? Is there a smooth approach? Would be happy for any pointers...At this point I'm not exactly aware of where the code for the power-aware idle thread is located in the source-tree.
