CV-Bowen opened a new pull request, #17808:
URL: https://github.com/apache/nuttx/pull/17808
## Summary
This PR enhances the RPMSG UART port driver with power management and
reliability improvements for inter-processor communication over UART. The
changes introduce comprehensive power state management, connection handling,
and packet management capabilities.
### 1 Wakeup Support
Added wakeup mechanism to wake peer processors from low power mode, enabling
efficient power-managed communication
### 2 Poweroff Handling
Implemented graceful poweroff command support allowing peers to shutdown
UART devices and wait for reconnection
### 3 Signal State Management
Enhanced signal handling to reflect suspend/resume states, accessible via
rpmsg_get_signals() API
### 4 Packet Drop on Reconnect
Refactored packet dropping logic from port SPI to common port layer,
ensuring clean state during peer reconnection.
## Impact
Rpmsg Port Uart/SPI Transport
## Testing
qemu-armv8a:rpserver and rpproxy
