From 4d7e30d98939a0340022ccd49325a3d70f7e0238 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arve Hjønnevåg Date: Tue, 1 May 2012 21:33:34 +0200 Subject: epoll: Add a flag, EPOLLWAKEUP, to prevent suspend while epoll events are ready MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit When an epoll_event, that has the EPOLLWAKEUP flag set, is ready, a wakeup_source will be active to prevent suspend. This can be used to handle wakeup events from a driver that support poll, e.g. input, if that driver wakes up the waitqueue passed to epoll before allowing suspend.
