(Not sure which powerdomains it was implemented for.) Do you know what the status of those patchsets are?
OMAP3 supports OSWR for MPU/IVA/CORE and PER powerdomains. Though we did have some OSWR implementations in our internal trees, we never ended up using them effectively, mainly because the latencies for OSWR as compared to OFF were very close on OMAP3 and the power savings from OFF (given we could hit 0v) significantly higher. OSWR on OMAP4 was hence reworked to keep much more retained in OSWR and make it, in latency terms, something _in_between_ a CSWR and OFF. Someone at some point (I don't recall and it could have even been me) would have tried to upstream the OSWR support from our internal trees, but as of now I don't know if anyone is trying to push or interested in OSWR support for OMAP3 anymore. regards, Rajendra
