From: Deepak Sikri<redacted> This patch handles the fix for unbalanced irq for the cases when enable_irq_wake fails, and a warning related to same is displayed on the console. The workaround is handled at the driver level.So why is the device marked as wakeup capable?The device is capable of wake up. There are cases in which the enable_irq_wake call may fail.
In this case I'd say the proper action would be to abort suspend instead of continuing.
This was specifically observed for ARM cortex architecture kernel implementation for GIC (PL390). The 2.6.37 kernel versions and before do not have the callbacks related to function that help to set up the wake up interrupts in GIC, and enable_irq_wake returns with an error code -ENXIO.
Right, but current mainline does have it set up properly, correct? IOW we do not really expect enable_irq_wake() to fail if device is wakeup capable, correct? Thanks. -- Dmitry
