Let me start and you can fill in. In $subject patch, the PM core propagates the IN_BAND_WAKEUP flag of the device to its parent device, via the ->power.wakeup_path_in_band flag. That becomes additional new information, as we already has the PM core to propagate the value of device_may_wakeup() (if true) to the parent device, via the ->power.wakeup_path flag. I assume that isn't sufficient, because the wakeup path isn't reflected in the child/parent hierarchy? So, I guess this is about drivers who deals with wakeup enabled devices and which are consumers of other resources (irqchips for example). As part of the wakup path, these resources also needs to be kept running, right? In your case, what other resources besides the irqchip, can be considered as a part of the wakeup path, but also being outside the parent/child hierarchy of the wakeup enabled device? Note that, an important fact as of today, is that when GENPD_FLAG_ACTIVE_WAKEUP is set for the genpd, genpd also checks the ->power.wakeup_path flag for the device. Both conditions must be true, else genpd powers off the PM domain (and the device). In other words, all devices being part of the wakeup path must either have device_may_wakeup() to return true for it or the ->power.wakeup_path set, else genpd will power off the PM domain, regardless of whether the GENPD_FLAG_ACTIVE_WAKEUP flag is set or not. > Hence for this class of SoCs, this would duplicate the existing > dev->power.wakeup and dev->power.wakeup_path flags, so that's why I would > prefer using GENPD_FLAG_ACTIVE_WAKEUP instead (like we already do for the > older SH-Mobile SoCs, but not for newer R-Car and RZ series). > For other SoC families, the situation may be different. > > For us, the only exception are devices where the wakeup-source is not the > device itself, but a GPIO, e.g. SDHI card detect.

The main reason to why I chosen the IN_BAND_WAKEUP method, is because genpd's *default* method is to power off the PM domain (and the device) even if wakeup is enabled for the device. Hence, genpd treats all wakeups as default being out-of-band IRQs. Having an OUT_BAND_WAKEUP flag, would thus only make sense for those genpds that has GENPD_FLAG_ACTIVE_WAKEUP set, I guess that is what you are saying as well? > > To complicate matters, some drivers may be used on SoCs where the device > needs to be kept running (clock and/or power domain), and on SoCs where the > device is always running.
