Even worse the kernel might abort the suspend due to some issue and we'll immediately resume. Also, and immediate thaw operation after freezing is how hibernate works. Iirc the hw always enforces the full power off delay after a power reset for exactly this reason (at least on current platforms afaik). But with the minimal delays in patch 6 that won't help any more, either. I fear we need a bit more smarts here using a realtime clock source to figure out whether actually sufficient time elapsed :( -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation +41 (0) 79 365 57 48 - http://blog.ffwll.ch _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
