 Replying to [comment:20 gnu]:
 > Chris, can you confirm whether Ohm is setting the proper "wake-on"
 parameters on eth0 and msh0 when it suspends?
 >
 > When suspending for lid-close, it should "wake-on: d" (disabled, i.e.
 wake on nothing).
 > When suspending automatically, it should "wake-on: uma" (unicast,
 multicast that we care about, and arps that we care about).
 >
 > This should fix up a bunch of Presence bugs that occur in the "presence"
 of suspend.  Ethtool sources can tell you how to set these driver
 settings.

 > Currently, in joyride-2263, I have auto-suspend on, and it's suspending
 regularly, but the network drivers are set to "Wake-on: u".

 > There's a separate issue, which is that the latest Marvell firmware
 should support wake-on-arp,
 > but the driver doesn't report that it supports wake-on-arp ("a").  See
 #3732.  In the absence of wake-on-arp, we should STILL fix wake-on-
 multicast (and ideally code it so it'll automatically turn on wake-on-arp
 once the driver supports it).

 wake on ARP is supported in the firmware by setting a signature based
 filter in the driver. Please refer to: http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/6993,
