Not sure why the customer didn't follow reference design, since PMIC_ON_REQ can provide power off/on feature by pressing ONOFF key which connected ONOFF pin of i.mx6(ONOFF will toggle PMIC_ON_REQ to power off/on PMIC). The official power off/on way (PMIC_ON_REQ) can also power off all power rails of PFUZE except snvs as your patch did on PMIC_STBY_REQ. PMIC_STBY_REQ is used to notify pmic switch power mode (PFM/APS) or decrease voltage to save power in kernel suspend, not power off....I am not sure if we need this patchset to 'workaround' the board issue. > > > Don't understand > > why not follow normal board design guide to power off pmic by > PMIC_ON_REQ. > > How to power on board again then? > > Power cycle.

Your board can't support wakeup by RTC alarm if not use PMIC_ON_REQ to power off. Again, why your board not follow the design guide?
