Hi Greg, hi people,

do you have anything in place that will work with swsuspend without any chance of deadlocking, so I can look at converting kaweth ?

Regards
Oliver

I haven't looked at swsuspend at all in the current tree, so no, I don't have anything in place :)

So at present it would have to be something called as a hotplug script in the usual way ?
The problem is that this cannot simply work, because a filesystem may be mounted by nfs.

Would you consider a firmware loading driver that takes firmware from disk ?

Regards
Oliver
