S2 preserves the ON/OFF island power and allows wake logic to wake the system (infrared, GPIOs, Wake-on-LAN/WLAN, etc.) whereas S3 allows powering off the ON/OFF island entirely, and allows for a lower power consumption, with a subset of the wake peripherals to actually wake the system. S5 is also implemented although its use case is narrower (soft-off). The higher latency involved in S3 entry/exit is totally accepted due to the higher power savings that it yields. > > You can always report any issue with PSCI specification at > errata@xxxxxxx as mentioned in the document.
