Also, if the interrupt in question is not a wakeup interrupt you leave it in a state where it does not detect an edge. A driver that enables its hardware in resume, then unmasks the interrupt would loose an interrupt that triggered between enabling the hardware and unmasking the interrupt. >>> This patch ensures that the lazy disable is done, and masked by >>> the irq_chip before the system goes into suspend. >> >> This will create a window where wakeup interrupts can be lost if the >> driver has masked the interrupt (by calling disable_irq).

A driver may not be able take interrupts after its suspend hook has been called. If it calls disable_irq on a wakeup interrupt then this interrupt should abort suspend or wake up from suspend. The driver will then see the interrupt when it call enable_irq in its resume handler. -- Arve Hjønnevåg _______________________________________________ linux-pm mailing list linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-pm
