I'm suspecting this is an area where Linux doesn't yet do what you need to be done. Right? Of course, one model here is that this "suspend" is not the same as an "echo something > /sys/power/state" ... that you'd be using runtime power management, and just opportunistically notice that the system is going to be idle for a while so that with CONFIG_NO_HZ your system idle loop could shut down various things (CPU, maybe more). - Dave _______________________________________________ linux-pm mailing list linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-pm
