I can't see it in linux-next. It has not landed yet, and will not land in the form that I proposed initially. There were some obvious issues with describing the sequences in the device tree, and I decided to rethink the whole thing, study the state of the art some more (especially ACPI) and start again from a blank page. The v2 idea is almost ready to be shared, but it needs a cleaner way to manage GPIOs, which itself requires gpiolib to be refactored and the GENERIC_GPIO option to be removed. These last two items will land in 3.10, so I hope to have both the gpiod interface *and* the new power seqs ready and approved for 3.11. Then my $@?*^! panel backlight will maybe finally switch on (no kidding - that's really what this whole thing is about). The new power seqs will fundamentally work in a similar fashion to v1 (a simple bytecode that controls power-related items), but will not be encoded through the DT. Instead, I'd like to have small power control objects that can be referenced by the platform data of pseq-enabled drivers, or fetched and associated to the driver through the compatible property of the DT. These objects will have, as before, power resources they need to request, and power methods that the driver can call as needed. I hate to give dates, but my wish is to come with a first version of the code by the time the merge window closes. And yes, I still plan to use Anton as a trojan horse to get this in. ;) Thanks, Alex. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
