swsusp: fix sysfs interface

2007-05-17T12:23:05+00:00

The sysfs files /sys/power/disk and /sys/power/state do not work as
documented, since they allow the user to write only a few initial
characters of the input string to trigger the option (eg.  'echo pl >
/sys/power/disk' activates the platform mode of hibernation).  Fix it.

Special thanks to Peter Moulder  for
pointing out the problem.

PM: Separate hibernation code from suspend code

2007-05-09T19:30:48+00:00

[ With Johannes Berg  ]

Separate the hibernation (aka suspend to disk code) from the other suspend
code.  In particular:

 * Remove the definitions related to hibernation from include/linux/pm.h
 * Introduce struct hibernation_ops and a new hibernate() function to hibernate
   the system, defined in include/linux/suspend.h
 * Separate suspend code in kernel/power/main.c from hibernation-related code
   in kernel/power/disk.c and kernel/power/user.c (with the help of
   hibernation_ops)
 * Switch ACPI (the only user of pm_ops.pm_disk_mode) to hibernation_ops

power management: change /sys/power/disk display

2007-05-07T19:12:59+00:00

Change /sys/power/disk to display all valid modes as well as the currently
selected one in a fashion known from the LED subsystem.

This changes userspace API, but it is apparently not used much (we asked
some userspace developers)

swsusp: use GFP_KERNEL for creating basic data structures

2007-05-07T19:12:59+00:00

Make swsusp call create_basic_memory_bitmaps() before processes are frozen, so
that GFP_KERNEL allocations can be made in it.  Additionally, ensure that the
swsusp's userland interface won't be used while either pm_suspend_disk() or
software_resume() is being executed.

swsusp: do not use page flags

2007-05-07T19:12:59+00:00

Make swsusp use memory bitmaps instead of page flags for marking 'nosave' and
free pages.  This allows us to 'recycle' two page flags that can be used for
other purposes.  Also, the memory needed to store the bitmaps is allocated
when necessary (ie.  before the suspend) and freed after the resume which is
more reasonable.

The patch is designed to minimize the amount of changes and there are some
nice simplifications and optimizations possible on top of it.  I am going to
implement them separately in the future.

remove "struct subsystem" as it is no longer needed

2007-05-03T01:57:59+00:00

We need to work on cleaning up the relationship between kobjects, ksets and
ktypes.  The removal of 'struct subsystem' is the first step of this,
especially as it is not really needed at all.

Thanks to Kay for fixing the bugs in this patch.

power management: remove firmware disk mode

2007-04-30T23:40:40+00:00

This patch removes the firmware disk suspend mode which is the wrong approach,
it is supposed to be used for implementing firmware-based disk suspend but
cannot actually be used for that.

rework pm_ops pm_disk_mode, kill misuse

2007-04-30T23:40:40+00:00

This patch series cleans up some misconceptions about pm_ops.  Some users of
the pm_ops structure attempt to use it to stop the user from entering suspend
to disk, this, however, is not possible since the user can always use
"shutdown" in /sys/power/disk and then the pm_ops are never invoked.  Also,
platforms that don't support suspend to disk simply should not allow
configuring SOFTWARE_SUSPEND (read the help text on it, it only selects
suspend to disk and nothing else, all the other stuff depends on PM).

The pm_ops structure is actually intended to provide a way to enter
platform-defined sleep states (currently supported states are "standby" and
"mem" (suspend to ram)) and additionally (if SOFTWARE_SUSPEND is configured)
allows a platform to support a platform specific way to enter low-power mode
once everything has been saved to disk.  This is currently only used by ACPI
(S4).

This patch:

The pm_ops.pm_disk_mode is used in totally bogus ways since nobody really
seems to understand what it actually does.

This patch clarifies the pm_disk_mode description.

It also removes all the arm and sh users that think they can veto suspend to
disk via pm_ops; not so since the user can always do echo shutdown >
/sys/power/disk, they need to find a better way involving Kconfig or such.

ACPI is the only user left with a non-zero pm_disk_mode.

The patch also sets the default mode to shutdown again, but when a new pm_ops
is registered its pm_disk_mode is selected as default, that way the default
stays for ACPI where it is apparently required.

[PATCH] Revert "swsusp: disable nonboot CPUs before entering platform suspend"

2007-03-27T16:20:03+00:00

This reverts commit 94985134b7b46848267ed6b734320db01c974e72 and
insteads removes the WARN_ON() that caused that commit in the first
place.

The problem is that we call disable_nonboot_cpus() in swsusp before
powering down the system in order to avoid triggering the WARN_ON()
in arch/x86_64/kernel/acpi/sleep.c:init_low_mapping() and this doesn't
work well on Thomas' system.

So instead, remove the WARN_ON() in arch/x86_64/kernel/acpi/sleep.c:
init_low_mapping(), which triggers every time during the suspend to disk
in the platform mode, as the potential problem it is related to doesn't
seem to occur in practice.

[ I think we might want to disallow the case of multiple users of that
  mm, or something.  Normally, playing with the current process page
  tables on the current CPU should be fine as long as we don't have
  other threads using those tables at the same time..

  Anyway, not pretty, but better than the warning or the lockup - Linus ]

[PATCH] fix extra BIOS invocation during resume

2007-03-23T02:39:06+00:00

It causes extra moon icons blinking on x60, and breaks at least two other
systems.

During resume, we do not know that "reboot"/"shutdown" method was used, so
we assume "plaform" and call BIOS, anyway...

This is 2.6.21 material, and should fix 2 or 3 regressions from 2.6.20.
