I think one of the most important thing in mobile device is power
management design, but up to this point, we still don't have clear
picture of power management design abstract layer for application and
lower level hardware.
I saw Intel moblin (http://www.moblin.org/projects/projects_ppm.php) has
some power management profile as interface for applications. Do we need
have smiliar design in hardware power bus and software profile parser
middleware?
Question including:
*What PMU should we use for 6400/6410 (if we use)
*What the bus will be used for devices, we have following device for GTA
series for sure
**WLAN (SDIO/SPI?)
**Bluetooth (USB/others?)
**Accelerometer (SPI)
**GPS (UART)
**GSM/EDGE (UART)
**Debug (UART/Others?)
**lots LED
**Some mechanical button, some other types
**Wolfson I2S
**PMU I2C
*Any bus design in hardware we could do for better power management design
*Any power management project existing in open source project that could
suit for device power management?
