Bug description:
  In order to let CPU Package gets deeper C-state, we need to use power-

  ahci: Allow setting a default LPM policy for mobile chipsets

  On many laptops setting a different LPM policy then unknown /
  max_performance can lead to power-savings of 1.0 - 1.5 Watts (when idle).

  Modern ultrabooks idle around 6W (at 50% screen brightness), 1.0 - 1.5W
  is a significant chunk of this.

  There are some performance / latency costs to enabling LPM by default,
  so it is desirable to make it possible to set a different LPM policy
  for mobile / laptop variants of chipsets / "South Bridges" vs their
  desktop / server counterparts. Also enabling LPM by default is not
  entirely without risk of regressions. At least min_power is known to
  cause issues with some disks, including some reports of data corruption.

  This commits adds a new ahci.mobile_lpm_policy kernel cmdline option,
  which defaults to a new SATA_MOBILE_LPM_POLICY Kconfig option so that
  Linux distributions can choose to set a LPM policy for mobile chipsets
  by default.

  The reason to have both a kernel cmdline option and a Kconfig default
  value for it, is to allow easy overriding of the default to allow
  trouble-shooting without needing to rebuild the kernel.

  "3 => Medium power with Device Initiated PM enable" is a well-balanced
  that can let Package enters deeper C-state.

  Also, Fedora already set SATA_MOBILE_LPM_POLICY=3 for their latest
  kernel.

2019-02-14 Thread Brad Figg
This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves
the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the
results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-
bionic' to 'verification-done-bionic'. If the problem still exists,
change the tag 'verification-needed-bionic' to 'verification-failed-
bionic'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!
