I do read kerneldoc, but I *rely* on the code, and it's nice when I can match up the kerneldoc with what the code is doing :) Part of my confusion is that "passing control to platform firmware" isn't particularly useful in itself because it doesn't give a clue about what firmware is *doing*. Without knowing what it does, we can't reason about how kernel's actions interact with firmware's actions. > BTW, the problem at hand is not that s2idle in particular needs to be > treated in a special way (this appears to be the source of all > confusion here).

I assume this is really a case of "the kernel doesn't know *what* to do, but platform firmware does," so in principle the kernel *could* undo the SXIO/SXFP/SXLF magic if it knew what to do. > And "passing control to the platform firmware" doesn't mean "executing > some AML" here, because control remains in the kernel when AML is > executed.

So IIUC the comment should say something like: SXIO/SXFP/SXLF turns off power to the Thunderbolt controller. We don't know how to turn it back on again, but firmware does, so we can only use SXIO/SXFP/SXLF if we're suspending via firmware. Actually, it sounds like the important thing is that we rely on the firmware *resume* path to turn on the power again. pm_resume_via_firmware() *sounds* like it would be appropriate, but the kerneldoc says that's for use after resume, and it tells us whether firmware has *already* handled the wakeup event. And PM_SUSPEND_FLAG_FW_RESUME isn't set until after we've run these suspend_late fixups, so it wouldn't work here. Bjorn
