But I'm probably missing some nasty details in this issue :-) Although it is perfectly feasible to have a seamless transition of the EMU power domain, I think the PMU counters will not be accurate anymore since they stop counting events when going to OFF and re-start after the state restore. > > Regards, > Benoit Regards, Jean > > > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in > the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
