OK, I'm happy to hear that. It means the userspace model for wakeup events on PCs can become one that non-ACPI platforms can use too. In which case ...

What's different is that /proc/acpi/wakeup is being taken partially out of the decision loop ... in favor of (a) driver model flags, which work on platforms without ACPI, and also (b) device driver logic, which in any case really needs to be prepared to request and otherwise manage the wake events. If someone sets /proc/acpi/wakeup flags for a device, it could still be made to issue wake events for devices with drivers that don't expect (or handle) those events. - Dave _______________________________________________ linux-pm mailing list linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-pm
