Correct. Sourav, as I mentioned when I suggested this approach, it should be done *only* during suspend. > But this will be not easy, again, - > because System suspend isn't synchronized with Runtime PM (I mean, > serial_omap_suspend/resume() may be called from one thread and > serial_omap_runtime_suspend/resume() from another at same time). > And now, serial_omap_suspend() callback is the only one place where you > can detect that system is going to sleep. So set an 'is_suspending' flag in ->suspend (it may need to be in ->prepare) and clear it in ->resume (->complete), and check the flag in the ->runtime_supend() callback. It's not uncommon for drivers to have such a flag for various reasons. > Personally, i don't believe in such approach (my experiences from K3.4 > said me that there will be more problems than benefits). > > And, I like combination of "no_console_suspend" in bootargs + > "ti,no_idle_on_suspend" for console UART in DT, because 1) it's debug > option and 2) until > smth. will be decided about OMAP OCP Bus it can be used. > > It's just my opinion. No, we need to get rid of ti,no_idle_on_suspend. It's an ugly, OMAP-specific hack (and I'm free to insult it because I introduced it.)
