However this is necessary to suspend, because PWM drivers usually refuse to suspend if they are still enabled. Also adapt shutdown to disable the PWM for similar reasons.

Ah, I see, because of 00e7e698bff1 the pwm isn't modified any more if only pwm_backlight_power_off() (but not pwm_backlight_update_status()) is called. But that is what the suspend callback (and also shutdown) does. > > On Wed, Mar 22, 2023 at 05:13:24AM +0000, Aisheng Dong wrote: > > > It seems this patch changed the behavior of pwm_backlight_suspend a > > > little bit in > > > pwm_backlight_power_off() that pwm state keep unchanged during > > suspend. > > > Then pwm_imx_tpm_suspend() will return -Ebusy due to > > tpm->enable_count > 0. > > > Was this intended behavior?

So this is a configuration where the PWM isn't disabled any more when brightness=0 is set. Iff the driver emits its inactive state when disabled (for both polarities), it might disable if .duty_cycle = 0 is requested to safe some power. > > b) is the right one from the PWM framework's POV.

Sure. I expect this fixes your issue, but I didn't test it. So if you give it a shot that would be great.
