The one thing I don't understand is why a driver would select the active state in probe(), unless it's a driver that does not support runtime PM. (But maybe that's what you mean.) Compare this to <linus/pinctrl/pinctrl-state.h>: /** * @PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT: the state the pinctrl handle shall be put * into as default, usually this means the pins are up and ready to * be used by the device driver. This state is commonly used by * hogs to configure muxing and pins at boot, and also as a state * to go into when returning from sleep and idle in * .pm_runtime_resume() or ordinary .resume() for example. * @PINCTRL_STATE_IDLE: the state the pinctrl handle shall be put into * when the pins are idle. This is a state where the system is relaxed * but not fully sleeping - some power may be on but clocks gated for * example. Could typically be set from a pm_runtime_suspend() or * pm_runtime_idle() operation. * @PINCTRL_STATE_SLEEP: the state the pinctrl handle shall be put into * when the pins are sleeping. This is a state where the system is in * its lowest sleep state. Could typically be set from an * ordinary .suspend() function. */ #define PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT "default" #define PINCTRL_STATE_IDLE "idle" #define PINCTRL_STATE_SLEEP "sleep" The way I currently use these in e.g. drivers/spi/spi-pl022 is: probe: -> default runtime_suspend: -> idle runtime_resume: -> default suspend: -> sleep resume: -> default -> idle Notice that we go to default then idle on probe and runtime resume. This is because the idle state is optional (as is the sleep state). So I guess if we should extend this terminology to match what you are using for the OMAP it would rather be like this: probe: -> default runtime_suspend: -> idle runtime_resume: -> default -> active suspend: -> sleep resume: -> default -> idle Just one more optional "active" state in runtime resume. Correct? If we can agree on this I will add the active state to the state table and add a container in the core for this as well as pinctrl_pm_select_active_state() so we can skip all the pointless boilerplate also in the OMAP drivers, plus increase the readability and portability quite a bit. >> However in this case I *suspect* that what you really want >> to do it to rename the state called "default" to "sleep" >> (it appears the default state is sleepy) and then rename >> the "active" state to "default" (as this is the defined semantic >> meaning of "default" from <linux/pinctrl/pinctrl-state.h>. > > The idle state above could also be called sleep instead of idle > if you prefer that. No I think we should reserve that name for the pin state associated with suspend().

Actually we have the same thing, it's just that our "default" and "active" are the same thing. But it seems we need to add your granularity to this.
