[Why]
DCN IPS interoperates with other system idle power features, such as
Zstates.
On DCN35, there is a known issue where system Z8 + DCN IPS2 causes a
hard hang. We observe this on systems where the SBIOS allows Z8.
Though there is a SBIOS fix, there's no guarantee that users will get it
any time soon, or even install it. A workaround is needed to prevent
this from rearing its head in the wild.
[How]
For DCN35, check the pmfw version to determine whether the SBIOS has the
fix. If not, set IPS1+RCG as the deepest possible state in all cases
except for s0ix and display off (DPMS). Otherwise, enable all IPS

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 reStructuredText 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.
