(Maybe it > can wake up, maybe its firmware is monitoring the WLAN, etc.) In addition to offering wakeup events for individual devices, the device suspend states should be something like retention and suspend, where: Retention is where clocks are off for a device, but power is on. In this case the device registers are maintained in hardware. Suspend is where clocks and power are off. In this state the device registers are maintained in software. Laptops mostly have suspend, while socs allow both retention and suspend in many cases.
