Hi Patrick,

welcome to RIOT!
I'm not the best specialist of the topic, maybe others will have
complementary advice (or may correct me).
Can you scan through the wikipage on this topic [1] ?

For the L4, pm is not there yet.
What you could do is look at [2] an consider extending for L4.
Then if you mimic what is done for the L0 [3] by activating the pm_layered
module,
you will have access to the api: if you activate pm_layered, you have
access to pm_set for manual setting (or you can let pm_layered autopilot
the pm).
There are some use cases with GPIO or UART which require special care /
manual settings.

And: contributions are welcome!

Cheers

Emmanuel
