![]() The platform bus type is often used to handle Systems-on-a-Chip (SoC) where all devices are represented by objects of type struct platform_device. In those cases the same "platform" device driver may be used with multiple different system configurations, but the actions needed to put the devices it handles into a low-power state and back into the full-power state may depend on the design of the given SoC. The driver, however, cannot possibly include all the information necessary for the power management of its device on all the systems it is used with. Moreover, the device hierarchy in its current form also is not suitable for representing this kind of information. The patch below attempts to address this problem by introducing objects of type struct dev_power_domain that can be used for representing power domains within a SoC. Every struct dev_power_domain object provides a sets of device power management callbacks that can be used to perform what's needed for device power management in addition to the operations carried out by the device's driver and subsystem. Namely, if a struct dev_power_domain object is pointed to by the pwr_domain field in a struct device, the callbacks provided by its ops member will be executed in addition to the corresponding callbacks provided by the device's subsystem and driver during all power transitions.
