It actually depends on the architecture (at91rm9200, at91sam9 or sama5) but basically, the clocks are switched off in almost all the peripheral drivers then the ram self refresh activated, the master clock is switched off using code running from SRAM and the core is then waiting for interrupt. -- Alexandre Belloni, Free Electrons Embedded Linux, Kernel and Android engineering http://free-electrons.com -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
