[PATCH] swsusp: debugging

2006-11-03T20:27:58+00:00

Add a swsusp debugging mode.  This does everything that's needed for a suspend
except for actually suspending.  So we can look in the log messages and work
out a) what code is being slow and b) which drivers are misbehaving.

(1)
# echo testproc > /sys/power/disk
# echo disk > /sys/power/state

This should turn off the non-boot CPU, freeze all processes, wait for 5
seconds and then thaw the processes and the CPU.

(2)
# echo test > /sys/power/disk
# echo disk > /sys/power/state

This should turn off the non-boot CPU, freeze all processes, shrink
memory, suspend all devices, wait for 5 seconds, resume the devices etc.

Documentation: remove duplicated words

2006-10-03T20:57:56+00:00

Remove many duplicated words under Documentation/ and do other small
cleanups.

Examples:
        "and and" --> "and"
        "in in" --> "in"
        "the the" --> "the"
        "the the" --> "to the"
        ...

[PATCH] PM: Add pm_trace switch

2006-09-26T15:49:04+00:00

Add the pm_trace attribute in /sys/power which has to be explicitly set to
one to really enable the "PM tracing" code compiled in when CONFIG_PM_TRACE
is set (which modifies the machine's CMOS clock in unpredictable ways).

updated Documentation/power/devices.txt

2006-09-26T04:08:37+00:00

This turned into a rewrite of Documentation/power/devices.txt:

 - Provide more of the "big picture"

 - Fixup some of the horribly ancient/obsolete description of device suspend()
   semantics; lots of text just got deleted.

 - Add a decent description of PM_EVENT_* codes, including the new PRETHAW code
   needed in some swsusp scenarios.

 - Describe the new PM factorization from Linus:
     * class suspend, current suspend, then suspend_late
     * NOT suspend_prepare, it wasn't really usable
     * resume_early, current resume, class resume.

 - Updates power/state docs to be correct, and deprecate its usage except for
   driver testing.
