When configuring the broadcast timer on entry to and exit from deep idle states, prefer a per-CPU wakeup timer if one exists. On entry to idle, stop the tick device and transfer the next event into the oneshot wakeup device, which will serve as the wakeup from idle. To avoid the overhead of additional hardware accesses on exit from idle, leave the timer armed and treat the inevitable interrupt as a (possibly spurious) tick event.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
