Whether or not a device is a wakeup source not only depends on the SoC specification but also the configuration and current state for the device. I only expect the device driver to have this knowledge and call this function rather than some standalone platform code. Therefore I don't think your concern matters. > > >>>> Who is setting can_wakeup for these devices? > >>> > >>> The device driver is responsible to set can_wakeup. > >> > >> How would the device driver know how to set it?

It is equivalent to checking the > compatible for etsec. It does not convey any information about whether It can be described either by explicit feature property or by the compatible. I don't think it is a problem that we choose one against another. > the eTSEC is still active in a given low power mode. Whether or not the eTSEC is still active in both sleep and deep sleep is only depending on if we set it to be a wakeup source. If it behaves differently for low power modes in the future, we could address that by adding additional property. > > How is fsl,wake-os-filer relevant to this decision? When will it be set > but not fsl,magic-packet? I mean either fsl,magic-packet or fsl,wake-on-filer shows it can be a wakeup source. Currently we don't have an SoC to have wake-on-filer while not wake-on-magic. But I think it's better to consider both as they are independent features. > > What about devices other than ethernet? What about differences between > ordinary sleep and deep sleep? There is no difference for sleep and deep sleep for all wakeup sources currently. We can address the problem if it is not the case in the future.
