Public bug reported: ===SRU Justification=== [Impact] New TBT controllers may use Native PCIe Enumeration (i.e. just like other normal PCIe device listed under lspci) instead of ACPI hotplug.
Since TBT controller stops getting unplugged from PCIe bus, it draws additional power. [Fix] Support runtime power management for TBT controllers, so it can be put to D3 to save powers. [Test] I tested and verified this patch series can make Lenovo T480's TBT controller enters PCI D3 at runtime. [Regression Potential] Low. Almost all TBT controllers in the wild still uses ACPI hotplug, this series won't affect those users. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1789358 Title: Support Power Management for Thunderbolt Controller Status in linux package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: ===SRU Justification=== [Impact] New TBT controllers may use Native PCIe Enumeration (i.e. just like other normal PCIe device listed under lspci) instead of ACPI hotplug.
