Wake Up A9 core from the Sleep in imx6sx

[nilesh_patel]

Hi,

We are using imx6sx custom board and we need sleep and wakeup functionality based on  GPIO interrupt.

Our requirement:

1) put linux into sleep mode using echo mem > /sys/power/state command,

2) Wakeup A9 core linux when GPIO interrupt occurs.

we have use GPIO7_IO8.

for that I have created node in imx6sx-sdb.dtsi file as below:

gpio-keys {
    compatible = "gpio-keys";
     power {
             label = "wake-up";
             gpios = <&gpio7 8 1>;
             linux,code = <116>;
             gpio-key,wakeup;
     };
};

using above changes in .dtsi file i get below node:

/sys/devices/soc0/gpio-keys/power/wakeup

then, I use below command to enable it

echo enabled > /sys/devices/soc0/gpio-keys/power/wakeup

using below command I put linux into sleep mode

echo mem > /sys/power/state

then, we give interrupt on GPIO7_IO8, using button switch but I am not able wake-up linux.

So, Please provide your expert advice to fix this issue.

Thanks,

Hi Nilesh Patel,

Will you please give your configuration. I am also struggling in wake up.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi Nilesh

for configuring gpio interrupt one can look at
