suspend: use WARN not WARN_ON to print the message

2008-11-18T16:07:36+00:00

By using WARN(), kerneloops.org can collect which component is causing
the delay and make statistics about that. suspend_test_finish() is
currently the number 2 item but unless we can collect who's causing
it we're not going to be able to fix the hot topic ones..

pm: rework disabling of user mode helpers during suspend/hibernation

2008-10-16T18:21:29+00:00

We currently use a PM notifier to disable user mode helpers before suspend
and hibernation and to re-enable them during resume.  However, this is not
an ideal solution, because if any drivers want to upload firmware into
memory before suspend, they have to use a PM notifier for this purpose and
there is no guarantee that the ordering of PM notifiers will be as
expected (ie.  the notifier that disables user mode helpers has to be run
after the driver's notifier used for uploading the firmware).

For this reason, it seems better to move the disabling and enabling of
user mode helpers to separate functions that will be called by the PM core
as necessary.

ftrace: disable tracing for suspend to ram

2008-08-27T20:54:20+00:00

I've been painstakingly debugging the issue with suspend to ram and
ftraced. The 2.6.28 code does not have this issue, but since the mcount
recording is not going to be in 27, this must be solved for the ftrace
daemon version.

The resume from suspend to ram would reboot because it was triple
faulting. Debugging further, I found that calling the mcount function
itself was not an issue, but it would fault when it incremented
preempt_count. preempt_count is on the tasks info structure that is on the
low memory address of the task's stack.  For some reason, it could not
write to it. Resuming out of suspend to ram does quite a lot of funny
tricks to get to work, so it is not surprising at all that simply doing a
preempt_disable() would cause a fault.

Thanks to Rafael for suggesting to add a "while (1);" to find the place in
resuming that is causing the fault. I would place the loop somewhere in
the code, compile and reboot and see if it would either reboot (hit the
fault) or simply hang (hit the loop).  Doing this over and over again, I
narrowed it down that it was happening in enable_nonboot_cpus.

At this point, I found that it is easier to simply disable tracing around
the suspend code, instead of searching for the particular function that
can not handle doing a preempt_disable.

This patch disables the tracer as it suspends and reenables it on resume.

I tested this patch on my Laptop, and it can resume fine with the patch.

pm selftest: rtc paranoia

pm: boot time suspend selftest

2008-07-24T17:47:22+00:00

Boot-time test for system suspend states (STR or standby).  The generic
RTC framework triggers wakeup alarms, which are used to exit those states.

  - Measures some aspects of suspend time ... this uses "jiffies" until
    someone converts it to use a timebase that works properly even while
    timer IRQs are disabled.

  - Triggered by a command line parameter.  By default nothing even
    vaguely troublesome will happen, but "test_suspend=mem" will give
    you a brief STR test during system boot.  (Or you may need to use
    "test_suspend=standby" instead, if your hardware needs that.)

This isn't without problems.  It fires early enough during boot that for
example both PCMCIA and MMC stacks have misbehaved.  The workaround in
those cases was to boot without such media cards inserted.

Suspend-related patches for 2.6.27

2008-06-12T21:25:09+00:00

ACPI PM: Add possibility to change suspend sequence

There are some systems out there that don't work correctly with
our current suspend/hibernation code ordering.  Provide a workaround
for these systems allowing them to pass 'acpi_sleep=old_ordering' in
the kernel command line so that it will use the pre-ACPI 2.0 ("old")
suspend code ordering.

Unfortunately, this requires us to add a platform hook to the
resuming of devices for recovering the platform in case one of the
device drivers' .suspend() routines returns error code.  Namely,
ACPI 1.0 specifies that _PTS should be called before suspending
devices, but _WAK still should be called before resuming them in
order to undo the changes made by _PTS.  However, if there is an
error during suspending devices, they are automatically resumed
without returning control to the PM core, so the _WAK has to be
called from within device_resume() in that cases.

The patch also reorders and refactors the ACPI suspend/hibernation
code to avoid duplication as far as reasonably possible.

Introduce new top level suspend and hibernation callbacks

2008-06-10T17:59:50+00:00

Introduce 'struct pm_ops' and 'struct pm_ext_ops' ('ext' meaning
'extended') representing suspend and hibernation operations for bus
types, device classes, device types and device drivers.

Modify the PM core to use 'struct pm_ops' and 'struct pm_ext_ops'
objects, if defined, instead of the ->suspend(), ->resume(),
->suspend_late(), and ->resume_early() callbacks (the old callbacks
will be considered as legacy and gradually phased out).

The main purpose of doing this is to separate suspend (aka S2RAM and
standby) callbacks from hibernation callbacks in such a way that the
new callbacks won't take arguments and the semantics of each of them
will be clearly specified.  This has been requested for multiple
times by many people, including Linus himself, and the reason is that
within the current scheme if ->resume() is called, for example, it's
difficult to say why it's been called (ie. is it a resume from RAM or
from hibernation or a suspend/hibernation failure etc.?).

The second purpose is to make the suspend/hibernation callbacks more
flexible so that device drivers can handle more than they can within
the current scheme.  For example, some drivers may need to prevent
new children of the device from being registered before their
->suspend() callbacks are executed or they may want to carry out some
operations requiring the availability of some other devices, not
directly bound via the parent-child relationship, in order to prepare
for the execution of ->suspend(), etc.

Ultimately, we'd like to stop using the freezing of tasks for suspend
and therefore the drivers' suspend/hibernation code will have to take
care of the handling of the user space during suspend/hibernation.
That, in turn, would be difficult within the current scheme, without
the new ->prepare() and ->complete() callbacks.

Suspend: Invoke suspend notifications after console switch

2008-02-01T23:30:58+00:00

In order to fix APM emulation it is necessary to enable apm-emulation
notifications for suspends triggered in various ways via the suspend
notifiers.  However, this will cause the systems using APM emulation
to lock up between X being needed to switch away from the VT and X
already waiting for resume in the APM ioctl.

This patch moves the console switch (if enabled) before the suspend
notification (and after the resume notification) to avoid this issue.

Suspend: Introduce begin() and end() callbacks

2008-02-01T23:30:56+00:00

On ACPI systems the target state set by acpi_pm_set_target() is
reset by acpi_pm_finish(), but that need not be called if the
suspend fails.  All platforms that use the .set_target() global
suspend callback are affected by analogous issues.

For this reason, we need an additional global suspend callback that
will reset the target state regardless of whether or not the suspend
is successful.  Also, it is reasonable to rename the .set_target()
callback, since it will be used for a different purpose on ACPI
systems (due to ACPI 1.0x code ordering requirements).

Introduce the global suspend callback .end() to be executed at the
end of the suspend sequence and rename the .set_target() global
suspend callback to .begin().
