That's a bit of a sticky situation. I went back and forth on it a bit ... and eventually decided the simplest, and clearest, approach was not to change how /proc/acpi/wakeup handles those flags. > But now I think it's wrong.

Given these and the PNP patches, most /proc/acpi/wakeup devices will now get the right annotations. There will still be some puzzles to work out over time though ... the PS2 devices, some ACPI buttons, and PCI bridges. Plus of course the PCI issues addressed in the third patch. I switched things around a bit; maybe it's now easier to have something that won't break powerpc. - Dave > Thanks, > Rui > _______________________________________________ linux-pm mailing list linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-pm
