If you're asking about the new framework, it's been there since 2.6.29 and is a recommended way of implementing PM hooks now. Please have a look at Documentation/power/pci.txt. :-) > If it fixes an issue should this go for stable? I'm not 100% sure it fixes everything yet, although I hasn't been able to reproduce the problem with it applied, so far. So, I don't think it's -stable material at this point. However, it should be done anyway at one point, so it very well can be done right now, given that I have the hardware to test it. :-) Thanks, Rafael -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
