Do you see practical issues? If not, should we avoid over-engineering at this moment? After resume, SW_LID state could remain unreliable "close" for a while. But that's just a kind of delay happens in all computing programs. I suppose all power managing programs have already handled that. I confirmed no breakage for systemd 233. For systemd 229, it cannot handle it well due to bugs. But my latest patch series has worked the bug around. So I don't see any breakage related to post-resume incorrect state period. Do you see problems that my tests haven't covered? So I wonder if you mean: After boot, button driver should create input node right before sending first input report. Is this exactly what you want me to improve? If so, please also let me know if you have seen real issues related to this? Cheers, Lv
