Subject: Re: [PATCH v3] ARM: imx6q: cpuidle: fix bug that CPU might not wake up at expected time

Message-ID: <20190305.193805.2098843820562835621.okuno.kohji@jp.panasonic.com> (raw)

Hi Shawn,

I found the fix of the same issue on linux-imx repository. Could you
refer to the following?

https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/linux-imx/commit/?h=imx_4.1.y_brillo&id=f739483488ef76979c06efea397237756bec45b9

Regarding the fix of cpuidle-imx6q.c, my fix is better, I think.
But, we may also need to modify pm-imx6.c.

# I cannot understand why they doesn't release their modifications.

Best regards,
 Kohji Okuno
