And you can't depend on this message getting out either if you are using a "real time system", so that's not an argument to add this at all, sorry. And yes, dbus is on _all_ distros these days, you will not have a working system without much functionality if you do not have it (heck, even the nokia devices use it.) > Also, they have their own bindings for the notification support > (dbus-glib and dbus-qt). I don't see this being a problem, why do you? No one forces you to use those bindings, you can listen to "raw" dbus messages quite easy from a simple C program if you want to. > One more drawback with dbus (apart from the above one), it will be > another redirection before our application receives the notification). You already have that if you are using udev, as udev will be the one that grabs this uevent and passes it to dbus anyway. Unless you are going to say you aren't using udev either? > Also, if you say S3/S4 are PC oriented (or intel specific; It is > mentioned in ACPI spec.) terms, the suspend-to-ram and to disk is not > necessarily PC (or intel) oriented. Yeah, "suspend-to-ram" and disk are not pc oriented, but that is not what you called your kevents, so why mention that? thanks, greg k-h _______________________________________________ linux-pm mailing list linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-pm
