That would depend on the device. But for instance on am437x, in order for GPIO IRQ to be detected as a wake up event they need to be edge triggered. > > Regarding your patch I am uncomfortable with disabling interrupts if > interrupt is edge-triggered, as replaying edge interrupts after enabling > is not very reliable.

I am still not sure who would consume these events. Upon waking up from suspend it would take a while for user-space to be ready to consume these events, and by that time there may have been quite a few of them. We are currently missing those events anyways, no? I mean the i2c read operation during suspend is failing anyways, which means that particular event is already missed.
