I'm not sure if this is good idea. Either pci config space needs to be restored early, or it can wait. Sometimes restoring it early and sometimes restoring it late seems harmful: it will make code harder to understand and harder to test. > In such cases the restoration of the device's config space will be > retried during the "normal" phase of resume (ie. with interrupts > enabled), so that the bridge can be put into D0 before that happens. If drivers have to assume it is restored late, anyway... why not do it late, always? -- (english) http://www.livejournal.com/~pavelmachek (cesky, pictures) http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~pavel/picture/horses/blog.html _______________________________________________ linux-pm mailing list linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-pm
