The driver needs some way to figure out what it's supposed to do - it's not immediately obvious without some policy information if suspend means to suspend everything or if things that can keep working should do so. The natural assumption for most systems would be that suspend means suspend everything so that's what ASoC (the embedded audio subsystem within ALSA) is doing. Note also that there are multiple drivers involved in this decision. The audio subsystem is separate from the bluetooth subsystem (which is mostly managed from user space rather than by a driver) and the audio subsystem is itself decomposed with three separate drivers in play, though there is also an entry point for the subsystem which orchestrates the audio side. Keeping the audio live if the bluetooth suspends isn't too useful. > Perhaps we need new state 'sleep but keep working' for cases like > that; echo mem > state should force machine to drop calls etc. There > should be another value where stuff that is in use keeps being powered > up; I also suspect that that's what android wants to use. That kind of devolves towards always driving to the lowest power consumption (which we want to do anyway). I suspect setting it system wide would end up being too coarse grained. _______________________________________________ linux-pm mailing list linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-pm
