That section is specifically about i2c-over-aux. Generally we have retries and appropriate timeouts to deal with AUX having to wake up from low power state. Although, I suppose we might consider switching to D0 for eg. duration of the detection to make sure none of the AUX transactions there take too long. That *might* make things a bit faster (but we'd need actual numbers to show that). And once we're done we should switch back to D3 to save power. Perhaps we could then also use a larger timeout just for the DP_SET_POWER AUX accesses, and all other AUX accesses could assume that the thing is awake and use a smaller timeout. Although the LTTPR mess probably means we can't actually reduce the timeouts :/ Another slight snag in the current way of doing things is that IIRC we never put a device into D3 after the initial detection, unless we actually turned the main link on and off again. That's also something that could get fixed by always putting the device into D3 after detection. But to do that stuff safely we'd need some way to make sure nothing else (eg. the main link) requires the D0 at that time. So some kind of D0 vs. D3 reference counting scheme might be needed. I did consider implementing something like that years ago, but dealing with the reference counting seemed too messy at the time. And since I never implemented it I never measured it either. Perhaps things are a bit cleaner these days to make that easier. Dunno. > > So in this patch we are trying to wake the sink device. Still the same question remains: Why?
