Re: [PATCH] dt-bindings: virtio: mmio: add optional virtio,wakeup property

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Jean and folks,
This is just an optional flag which could be used on an embedded system.
For example, if we want to use an virtio-input device as a virtual power
key to wake up the virtual machine, we can set this flag in the device
tree.
Currently, virio-mmio driver does not implement suspend/resume
callback(maybe no need). So we want to check this flag and call
enable_irq_wake()  accordingly in vm_find_vqs().

Regards,
Minghao
