So it would be good to test if this would work or not ... Right. Bartlomiej had pointed this out earlier, but I just wasn't very sure about it. Is it sufficient to just call phy_power_off() in suspend and phy_power_on() in resume? Or do we call phy_exit() and phy_init() respectively as well. Kishon, any suggestions? cheers, -roger -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
