What tells Linux that _REG needs to be used here? If there's nothing that tells Linux to use _REG here, I claim it's a BIOS defect. I'm happy to be convinced otherwise; the way to convince me is to point to the spec. If it's a BIOS defect, it's fine to work around it, but we need to understand that, own up to it, and make the exact requirements very clear. Otherwise we're likely to break this in the future because future developers and maintainers will rely on the specs. > > Doing this in pci_save_state() still seems wrong to me.

I can't suggest a call site because (1) I'm not a power management person, and (2) I don't think we have a clear statement of when it is required. This must be expressed in terms of PCI power state transitions, or at least something discoverable from a pci_dev, not "s2idle" or even "S3" because those are meaningless in the PCI context. Bjorn
