Re: S0ix failure due to "clk: x86: Do not gate clocks enabled by the firmware"

Hi,

TL;DR: ACPI 6.1 spec interpretation question:

  7.2 Declaring a Power Resource Object
  ...
  Power resource objects can appear wherever is convenient in the namespace.
  ...
  Systemlevel is the deepest system sleep level OSPM must maintain to keep this
  power resource on (0 equates to S0, 1 equates to S1, and so on).

Does it imply the OS should turn Power Resources off when changing
the system level below the systemlevel of the PowerResource?

Otherwise, what purpose do PowerResource objects have that are not
mentioned in any device _PR[0-3W]?  Or is it BIOS bug?


Thanks,
Johannes
