I'm going to do that, eventually, but rather in a separate patch, when everything is ready for the new framework, while at the moment we still have some design work to do. For example, some drivers may want to call pci_enable_wake() for the target state and that must be done before pci_set_power_state() in case the target state is D3cold. To allow them to do that, we'll need a variant of pci_choose_and_set_state() with a 'wake_enabled' argument. > I wonder if we should do a pass through the drivers converting them to this > interface as well... Well, that would be lots of work and since we'd like the drivers to switch to the new framework entirely, we'll need to pass through them anyway for this purpose. I'd prefer that to be one pass. ;-) Thanks, Rafael -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
