You're right. I didn't see that cedrus_dst_format_set() was called outside cedrus_engine_enable/disable(). > Anyway, I made a runtime PM support long time ago, but never do anything > besides running few tests: > https://github.com/jernejsk/linux-1/commit/ > d245b7fa2a26e519ff675a255c45230575a4a848 > > It takes a bit different approach.

Assuming cedrus_device_run() only gets called between streamon and streamoff (which appears to be the case), this looks like a better design. > Note that some registers are only set in start streaming handler.

I only see registers being set in cedrus_start_streaming() after your patch, where you add a call to cedrus_dst_format_set(). I can't find any registers being written in any of the ->start() callbacks. I'll send a v2 which combines the two patches: yours which handles the runtime part better, and mine which handles the probe/remove part better with !CONFIG_PM. > Best regards, > Jernej Thanks for the review!
