But that's not the case for some real devices so we have a 5 second timeout in Linux. For other requests, it's up to the class drivers. For most drivers on Linux, it's typically 5 seconds also. IMO, the system suspend on the gadget side should take precedence. That is, it shouldn't depend on whether the usb gadget is in suspend or not to go through system suspend. For that to happen, the gadget must initiate soft-disconnect. Otherwise I can see we may run into complications from the delay from the system suspend. For example, what if the host initiates resume right after suspend while the gadget side is still suspending? What if there are other gadgets on the setup that want or not want to go to suspend also? How can the system decide when it can go into suspend then? Thanks, Thinh
