Well, in fact, since we already have .active_wakeup(), what about the following patch (on top of https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/7/8/223): --- drivers/base/power/domain.c | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) Index: linux-2.6/drivers/base/power/domain.c =================================================================== --- linux-2.6.orig/drivers/base/power/domain.c +++ linux-2.6/drivers/base/power/domain.c @@ -519,6 +519,10 @@ static int pm_genpd_prepare(struct devic return -EBUSY; } + if (device_may_wakeup(dev) + && !(genpd->active_wakeup && genpd->active_wakeup(dev))) + pm_runtime_resume(dev); + genpd_acquire_lock(genpd); if (genpd->prepared_count++ == 0)
