We never had PM working in a generic way for the legacy booting but relied on board specific configuration instead for the ones that did work. Probably not worth changing the board-*.c file configuration unless you want to test that the new generic settings work. > > Or did I miss something?

Yeah no reason beyond somebody taking the time to verify that the generic settings work on n900 in legacy booting mode :) > > We can certainly add it to twl4030-power if it provides something > > that the "ti,twl4030-power-idle-osc-off" does not. > > But do we need 'compatible = "ti,twl4030-power-n900"' specification in > omap3-n900.dts file at all? Well that generally done to allow adding support for the board specific configuration if needed with a fallback to the generic configuration. That's used quite a bit, for example boards typically set the compatible to the specific board but still end up booting with a generic one sucha as "ti,omap3".

Tony, can you look at this at all? AFAIK it should work fine with the generic "ti,twl4030-power-idle-osc-off". This means reboot works and regulators are cut off during off mode. The n900 specific code was based on something before the TI generic values were available I think. And the last time I looked at it I came to the conclusion the n900 specific code is no better. Or did I miss something? Are you seeing some issues with PM with dts based code? We can certainly add it to twl4030-power if it provides something that the "ti,twl4030-power-idle-osc-off" does not.

Nokia N900: twl4030-power different data in DTS and board code
Hello, now I'm looking at differences between legacy board code and DTS file for Nokia N900 and I see some inconsistency for twl4030-power driver. In board code are defined more twl4030 power scripts which override defaults defined in twl4030-power code. See: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-rx51-peripherals.c#n790 Next in DTS file is defined just "compatible" keyword, but no custom scripts, see: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/arch/arm/boot/dts/omap3-n900.dts#n416 And the last in DTS file is defined line: compatible = "ti,twl4030-power-n900" which is not in twl4030-power driver itself, see: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/mfd/twl4030-power.c#n851 So all this stuff looks like some errors when board code was ported to DTS. Tony, can you look at this at all? -- Pali Rohár pali.ro...@gmail.com signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
