Hi Grygorii, Doug and Heiko, Thanks for your replies. I will do 2 steps: 1. Add "suspended" flag in suspend_noirq()/resume_noirq() callback to prevent new i2c started, and use i2c_lock_adapter() to wait for current i2c transfer finished. 2. IRQF_NO_SUSPEND added could make i2c work well during the time between suspend_device_irqs() and i2c_suspend_noirq() callback. In the other side, it is the the time between resume_device_irqs() and i2c_resume_noirq() callback. If any i2c client try to access I2C after suspend_noirq() or before resume_noirq() callback, print the warning, and they should fix it, not to start i2c access and the moment. ? 2016/12/8 0:27, Grygorii Strashko ??: > > > On 12/06/2016 09:37 PM, David.Wu wrote: >> Hi Doug, >> >> ? 2016/12/7 0:31, Doug Anderson ??: >>> Hi, >>> >>> On Tue, Dec 6, 2016 at 12:12 AM, David.Wu <david.wu at rock-chips.com> >>> wrote: >>>> Hi Heiko, >>>> >>>> ? 2016/12/5 18:54, Heiko Stuebner ??: >>>>> >>>>> Hi David, >>>>> >>>>> Am Montag, 5.
