During our power test , suspend frequently like this will consume more Power , because it will suspend/resume lots of Devices . Why don't we make a time window to make sure there is no more than 1 time suspend during the time window ? I remember Android use wakelock for suspend in older linux kernel , The wakelock will make some time window check to make sure Not suspend frequently , could autosleep also add this ?

Android phones pretty much want to sleep very very often. But if you think there's coding bug in there, let us know..

The amount of power a card (even if there are good behaving cards as well) may utilize, in powered but idle state could be significant. > I have seen cases of constant power consumption of several mA here. > > > > > or maybe even better > > > > 2) don't power _up_ SD card during system resume.

This is "almost" supported already by the mmc subsystem. > > If your mmc host has set the capability flag MMC_CAP_RUNTIME_RESUME, that means the card won't be powered up (and initialized) until the next request. > > However, for removable cards (!MMC_CAP_NONREMOVABLE), during system resume phase, the mmc core will trigger a "rescan" of the card, to verify it has not been removed.
