I'm not convinced that helps with the fact that the suspend may take a long time - ideally we'd be able to start the suspend process off but let other things carry on while it completes without having to worry about something we're relying on getting suspended underneath us. > > Embedded audio does potentially - the resume needs all the individual > > overall resume time.

Similarly, the length of time the resume may take to complete means it'd be nice to start as soon as we've got the devices and complete it at our leisure. This is less pressing since we can tell the PM core we've resumed but still block userspace. _______________________________________________ linux-pm mailing list linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-pm
