Or Just PHY (HW manual mentions for AWO, the USB PWRRDY signal->USB PHY PWRRDY signal control)? As per the update from HW team, "SYS_USB_PWRRDY and SYS_PCIE_RST_RSM_B are used when transition from ALL_ON to AWO (or from AWO to ALL_ON). Refer to step 8,9 in Table 41.10 Example Transition Flow Outline from ALL_ON Mode to AWO Mode. Refer to step 9,10 in Table 41.11 Example Transition Flow Outline from AWO Mode to ALL_ON Mode. When turning off USB PHY and PCIe PHY, if they are not controlled, PHY may break." Do you have any plan to control this power transitions(ALL_ON to AWO and vice versa) in linux? Cheers, Biju
