The hibernate resume code checks if there is an image to resume from on every boot and, if the kernel is built with CONFIG_PM_DEBUG set and the image is not present, it prints some scary messages suggesting there was a boot error of some sort. Apparently, some users are confused by them, so make them look less scary and adjust the other hibernate resume debug messages to match them. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>

This patch (as1427) implements the "autosuspend" facility for runtime PM. A few new fields are added to the dev_pm_info structure and several new PM helper functions are defined, for telling the PM core whether or not a device uses autosuspend, for setting the autosuspend delay, and for marking periods of device activity. Drivers that do not want to use autosuspend can continue using the same helper functions as before; their behavior will not change. In addition, drivers supporting autosuspend can also call the old helper functions to get the old behavior. The details are all explained in Documentation/power/runtime_pm.txt and Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-power. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

Some devices, such as USB interfaces, cannot be power-managed independently of their parents, i.e., they cannot be put in low power while the parent remains at full power. This patch (as1425) creates a new "no_callbacks" flag, which tells the PM core not to invoke the runtime-PM callback routines for the such devices but instead to assume that the callbacks always succeed. In addition, the non-debugging runtime-PM sysfs attributes for the devices are removed, since they are pretty much meaningless. The advantage of this scheme comes not so much from avoiding the callbacks themselves, but rather from the fact that without the need for a process context in which to run the callbacks, more work can be done in interrupt context.

This patch (as1424) combines the various public entry points for the runtime PM routines into three simple functions: one for idle, one for suspend, and one for resume. A new bitflag specifies whether or not to increment or decrement the usage_count field. The new entry points are named __pm_runtime_idle, __pm_runtime_suspend, and __pm_runtime_resume, to reflect that they are trampolines. Simultaneously, the corresponding internal routines are renamed to rpm_idle, rpm_suspend, and rpm_resume. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

This patch (as1423) merges the asynchronous routines __pm_request_idle(), __pm_request_suspend(), and __pm_request_resume() with their synchronous counterparts. The RPM_ASYNC bitflag argument serves to indicate what sort of operation to perform. In the course of performing this merger, it became apparent that the various functions don't all behave consistenly with regard to error reporting and cancellation of outstanding requests. A new routine, rpm_check_suspend_allowed(), was written to centralize much of the testing, and the other functions were revised to follow a simple algorithm: If the operation is disallowed because of the device's settings or current state, return an error. Cancel pending or scheduled requests of lower priority. Schedule, queue, or perform the desired operation. A few special cases and exceptions are noted in comments.

The "from_wq" argument in __pm_runtime_suspend() and __pm_runtime_resume() supposedly indicates whether or not the function was called by the PM workqueue thread, but in fact it isn't always used this way. It really indicates whether or not the function should return early if the requested operation is already in progress. Along with this badly-named boolean argument, later patches in this series will add several other boolean arguments to these functions and others. Therefore this patch (as1422) begins the conversion process by replacing from_wq with a bitflag argument. The same bitflags are also used in __pm_runtime_get() and __pm_runtime_put(), where they indicate whether or not the operation should be asynchronous.

There is a potential issue with the asynchronous suspend code that a device driver suspending asynchronously may not notice that it should back off. There are two failing scenarions, (1) when the driver is waiting for a driver suspending synchronously to complete and that second driver returns error code, in which case async_error won't be set and the waiting driver will continue suspending and (2) after the driver has called device_pm_wait_for_dev() and the waited for driver returns error code, in which case the caller of device_pm_wait_for_dev() will not know that there was an error and will continue suspending. To fix this issue make __device_suspend() set async_error, so async_suspend() doesn't need to set it any more, and make device_pm_wait_for_dev() return async_error, so that its callers can check whether or not they should continue suspending. No more changes are necessary, since device_pm_wait_for_dev() is not used by any drivers' suspend routines. Reported-by: Colin Cross <ccross@android.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

Introduce struct wakeup_source for representing system wakeup sources within the kernel and for collecting statistics related to them. Make the recently introduced helper functions pm_wakeup_event(), pm_stay_awake() and pm_relax() use struct wakeup_source objects internally, so that wakeup statistics associated with wakeup devices can be collected and reported in a consistent way (the definition of pm_relax() is changed, which is harmless, because this function is not called directly by anyone yet). Introduce new wakeup-related sysfs device attributes in /sys/devices/.../power for reporting the device wakeup statistics. Change the global wakeup events counters event_count and events_in_progress into atomic variables, so that it is not necessary to acquire a global spinlock in pm_wakeup_event(), pm_stay_awake() and pm_relax(), which should allow us to avoid lock contention in these functions on SMP systems with many wakeup devices.

Although we need the PM workqueue to be freezable, we don't need it to be singlethread. Also, the number of concurrent work items running on a single CPU need not be constrained. For these reasons use alloc_workqueue() directly, with suitable arguments, instead of create_freezeable_workqueue(), to create the runtime PM workqueue. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

Allow drivers, that belong to subsystems which use the generic runtime pm callbacks, not to define runtime pm suspend/resume handlers, by implicitly assuming success in such cases. This is needed to eliminate nop handlers that would otherwise be necessary by drivers which enable runtime pm, but don't need to do anything when their devices are runtime-suspended/resumed.

This patch fixes this regression by trivially bringing back that part of mmc_suspend_host(), which was removed by 4c2ef25f.

-
Tejun Heo authored
Commit f81f2f7c (ubd: drop unnecessary rq->sector manipulation) dropped request->sector manipulation in preparation for global request handling cleanup; unfortunately, it incorrectly assumed that the updated sector wasn't being used. ubd tries to issue as many requests as possible to io_thread. When issuing fails due to memory pressure or other reasons, the device is put on the restart list and issuing stops. On IO completion, devices on the restart list are scanned and IO issuing is restarted. ubd issues IOs sg-by-sg and issuing can be stopped in the middle of a request, so each device on the restart queue needs to remember where to restart in its current request. ubd needs to keep track of the issue position itself because, * blk_rq_pos(req) is now updated by the block layer to keep track of _completion_ position. * Multiple io_req's for the current request may be in flight, so it's difficult to tell where blk_rq_pos(req) currently is. Add ubd->rq_pos to keep track of the issue position and use it to correctly restart io_req issue.

Tony Luck reports that the addition of the access_ok() check in commit 0eead9ab ("Don't dump task struct in a.out core-dumps") broke the ia64 compile due to missing the necessary header file includes. Rather than add yet another include (<asm/unistd.h>) to make everything happy, just uninline the silly core dump helper functions and move the bodies to fs/exec.c where they make a lot more sense. dump_seek() in particular was too big to be an inline function anyway, and none of them are in any way performance-critical. And we really don't need to mess up our include file headers more than they already are.

akiphie points out that a.out core-dumps have that odd task struct dumping that was never used and was never really a good idea (it goes back into the mists of history, probably the original core-dumping code). Just remove it. Also do the access_ok() check on dump_write(). It probably doesn't matter (since normal filesystems all seem to do it anyway), but he points out that it's normally done by the VFS layer, so ... [ I suspect that we should possibly do "vfs_write()" instead of calling ->write directly. That also does the whole fsnotify and write statistics thing, which may or may not be a good idea. ] And just to be anal, do this all for the x86-64 32-bit a.out emulation code too, even though it's not enabled (and won't currently even compile) Reported-by: akiphie <akiphie@lavabit.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
