You've frozen most of your userspace because you don't trust the applications. One of those applications has an open network socket, and policy indicates that receiving a network packet should generate a wakeup, allow the userspace application to handle the packet and then return to sleep. What mechanism do you use to do that? -- Matthew Garrett | mjg59@xxxxxxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ linux-pm mailing list linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-pm
