It wouldn't need to convert the whole Frameworks layer into C, just enough to manage the suspend state. Anyway, I think there's been enough arguments against even the concept of opportunistic/auto-suspend, and I for one will object with a NAK if Rafael send this to Linus. The whole idea of segregating userspace like that, and not letting runnable thing run is very ill considered indeed. _______________________________________________ linux-pm mailing list linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-pm
