Hi Roland,
I have a last minute item for gnumach, if it still can be done.
bogus/power_save.h should set POWER_SAVE to 1
and somewhere we need to add machine_idle, like this for i386:
assert (cpu == mycpu);
asm volatile ("hlt" : : : "memory");
(see kern/sched_prim.c:idle_thread_continue)
If it is too late, no problem. but it helps laptop users to not heat up the
cpu and waste the battery power.
