Hi Alexander, Thanks for your comments.
I've posted a different solution for arm only here, that just causes a while loop in machine_power_off in the event it's called but does not halt. https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/3/24/299 On 25 March 2014 11:38, Alexander Holler <hol...@ahsoftware.de> wrote: > Both states, power off and sys halt, do sound pretty final and I would > assume something is broken, if power off is called before sys halt or vice > versa.

I hope this will all be handled by the loop in machine_power_off, so maybe this will not be needed. Thanks!
