Subject: [PATCH 0/3] Rework GPE handling
Date: Wed, 2 Sep 2009 19:10:14 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090902181014.GA10917@srcf.ucam.org> (raw)
The current GPE code attempts to define GPEs as either runtime (the
default), wake or run/wake. These states are orthogonal to whether or
not a GPE is actually enabled or not. Further, various additional flags
are defined and set, but never used.
This architecture is additionally complicated by changing the type of a
GPE causing it to be disabled, resulting in complex functions that then
have to conditionally re-enable a GPE. It also makes it impossible to
determine how many consumers a given GPE has, preventing us from
being able to implement runtime power management for devices requiring
GPEs for wakeup notification.
This patchset adds a new, simpler API and transitions the existing users
over to it. It then removes the old code.
