Yes, a register name defined at the head of file.

You will have to explain why you need this, really.

This is a dsb not an isb.

You have to explain why you need every single one of these barriers,
otherwise I am NAKing this patch.

This one looks ok :)

So what ? I suspect your issue is related to wfi completion on pending
IRQ. I would like to know the details that describe the issue you are
trying to solve here please.

Tell us what's the problem you have to solve, first, then we will see how
to fix it.

Honestly, I referred to others, I will dig more, and test it.

I want to understand why this assembly snippet (that can be rewritten
in C BTW):

/* Disable the processor's clock */
mov	tmp1, #AT91_PMC_PCK
str	tmp1, [pmc, #AT91_PMC_SCDR]

+

cpu_do_idle()

is not sufficient for you, or put it differently, why do you need
this macro.

This isb should not be there, unless you know a reason why it should
and you explain it to me.

Yes, but I still do not understand why you want to execute it before
disabling the clocks (I really hope that by "disabling the clocks" you
mean "set the power controller to a state when, on wfi execution, the
clocks are gated").

You should not copy and paste code, because:

1) it might be broken
2) and/or unoptimized
3) and/or does not apply to your platform

See my suggestion above, if it does not work for you, you will report the
issue and we will take it from there.

Lorenzo

This assembly snippet will be copied and run in the SRAM, in the period the DDR is in the self-refresh state.
So, it can't invoke other functions generally.

I encountered system lock during verifying the pm function. 
Anyway, I will tested again whether it works after removing it.

Are you meaning to execute dsb and wfi after disabling the clocks?

Ok, thanks for explaining, I will have a look again to check where you
use the macro to verify the code flow.

See above, I have to check when you switch to SRAM execution to see
if an isb is appropriate there, it is not self-explanatory.

Thank you,

Re-checked the code flow, I see no reason why this isb should be there.
Adding barriers changes code execution, this might paper over some
issues instead of solving them, so every single barrier should be
commented and added with a specific purpose that I do not see here.
