[linux-pm] [RFC][PATCH -mm 4/5] swsusp: Add PLATFORM_SNAPSHOT and PLATFORM_RESTORE ioctls

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi!

> Since pm_ops->finish() has to be called after enable_nonboot_cpus() and before

Maybe we should add SNAPSHOT_WITH_FLAGS (uint)
                    RESTORE_WITH_FLAGS (uint)

with one of those flags being USE_PLATFORM_MODE? We may need more
flags in future...

...or maybe have ioctl(fd, USE_PLATFORM_MODE)?
