I'm not sure what you mean, really. I guess we are talking about information in DT and some of it is consumed by the driver while some of it is consumed by some other pieces of code. > So while the driver need not be aware (and I agree! it only needs to > care about enabling/disabling wake), Not even that.

In there, the device sends an in-band message over the PCIe hierarchy to a root port and the interrupt is signaled from there. There is a PME driver in the kernel that requests that IRQ and handles it (for all ports that can trigger it), but for each port it binds to a separate device (or "service" if you will) that takes care of all PME messages coming from all devices under that port. At an abstract level, WAKE# is expected to be similar AFAICS except that there is a physical signal going from the device(s) (in low-power states) that have detected external activity (wakeup) to an entity that can trigger an interrupt. The original idea in the PCI PM spec regarding WAKE# seems to be to wire up WAKE# from all devices on the bus to one input that will cause an interrupt to trigger when one of them drives WAKE# and whatever handled that interrupt was expected to walk the bus, find the device(s) with PME Status set and put it (or them) into D0 (clearing PME Status in the process). That still is a valid case to consider IMO. However, designers of some boards decided to provide dedicated per-device interrupts for WAKE# and you may regard them as "wakeup IRQs" except that the handling of each of them is the same as for the "global WAKE#" above: if the PME Status of the device is set, put it into D0 etc. That part belongs to the PCI bus type layer IMO. Of course, because nothing is easy and simple, there is a third case in which one WAKE# line (and interrupt) can be shared by a subset of devices on the bus and there are multiple (say two or three) subsets. > Maybe this goes back to some confusion we had elsewhere: what is the > meaning of "interrupt" in device tree?

I would introduce a "wakeup service" concept (along the lines of the native PME) and make it request all interrupts associated with WAKE#. In the case when the WAKE# interrupts are dedicated per-device, it would be good to avoid walking the bus and use some "wakeup-IRQ-to-device" mapping if available. But as I said above, IMO the *handling* of all WAKE# interrupts belongs to the PCI bus type as it is the same for all PCI devices.
