Hibernation: Add PM_RESTORE_PREPARE and PM_POST_RESTORE notifiers (rev. 2)

2008-02-01T23:30:53+00:00

Add PM_RESTORE_PREPARE and PM_POST_RESTORE notifiers to the PM core, to be used
in analogy with the existing PM_HIBERNATION_PREPARE and PM_POST_HIBERNATION
notifiers.

Hibernation: Correct definitions of some ioctls (rev. 2)

2008-02-01T23:30:53+00:00

Three ioctl numbers belonging to the hibernation userland interface,
SNAPSHOT_ATOMIC_SNAPSHOT, SNAPSHOT_AVAIL_SWAP, SNAPSHOT_GET_SWAP_PAGE,
are defined in a wrong way (eg. not portable).  Provide new ioctl numbers for
these ioctls and mark the existing ones as deprecated.

Hibernation: Rework platform support ioctls (rev. 2)

2008-02-01T23:30:53+00:00

Modify the hibernation userland interface by adding two new ioctls to it,
SNAPSHOT_PLATFORM_SUPPORT and SNAPSHOT_POWER_OFF, that can be used,
respectively, to switch the hibernation platform support on/off and to make the
kernel transition the system to the hibernation state (eg. ACPI S4) using the
platform (eg. ACPI) driver.

These ioctls are intended to replace the misdesigned SNAPSHOT_PMOPS ioctl,
which from now is regarded as obsolete and will be removed in the future.

Hibernation: Introduce SNAPSHOT_GET_IMAGE_SIZE ioctl

2008-02-01T23:30:52+00:00

Add a new ioctl, SNAPSHOT_GET_IMAGE_SIZE, returning the size of the (just
created) hibernation image, to the hibernation userland interface.

This ioctl is necessary so that the userland utilities using the interface need
not access the hibernation image header, owned by the kernel, in order to obtain
the size of the image.

freezer: do not sync filesystems from freeze_processes

2007-10-18T21:37:18+00:00

The syncing of filesystems from within the freezer is generally not needed.
Also, if there's an ext3 filesystem loopback-mounted from a FUSE one, the
syncing results in writes to it and deadlocks.  Similarly, it will deadlock if
FUSE implements sync.

Change freeze_processes() so that it doesn't execute sys_sync() and make the
suspend and hibernation code path sync filesystems independently of the
freezer.

PM: Reduce code duplication between main.c and user.c

2007-07-19T17:04:42+00:00

The SNAPSHOT_S2RAM ioctl code is outdated and it should not duplicate the
suspend code in kernel/power/main.c.  Fix that.

PM: introduce hibernation and suspend notifiers

2007-07-19T17:04:42+00:00

Make it possible to register hibernation and suspend notifiers, so that
subsystems can perform hibernation-related or suspend-related operations that
should not be carried out by device drivers' .suspend() and .resume()
routines.

swsusp: introduce restore platform operations

2007-07-19T17:04:42+00:00

At least on some machines it is necessary to prepare the ACPI firmware for the
restoration of the system memory state from the hibernation image if the
"platform" mode of hibernation has been used.  Namely, in that cases we need
to disable the GPEs before replacing the "boot" kernel with the "frozen"
kernel (cf.  http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7887).  After the
restore they will be re-enabled by hibernation_ops->finish(), but if the
restore fails, they have to be re-enabled by the restore code explicitly.

For this purpose we can introduce two additional hibernation operations,
called pre_restore() and restore_cleanup() and call them from the restore code
path.  Still, they should be called if the "platform" mode of hibernation has
been used, so we need to pass the information about the hibernation mode from
the "frozen" kernel to the "boot" kernel in the image header.

Apparently, we can't drop the disabling of GPEs before the restore because of
Bug #7887 .   We also can't do it unconditionally, because the GPEs wouldn't
have been enabled after a successful restore if the suspend had been done in
the 'shutdown' or 'reboot' mode.

In principle we could (and probably should) unconditionally disable the GPEs
before each snapshot creation *and* before the restore, but then we'd have to
unconditionally enable them after the snapshot creation as well as after the
restore (or restore failure)   Still, for this purpose we'd need to modify
acpi_enter_sleep_state_prep() and acpi_leave_sleep_state() and we'd have to
introduce some mechanism synchronizing the disablind/enabling of the GPEs with
the device drivers' .suspend()/.resume() routines and with
disable_/enable_nonboot_cpus().   However, this would have affected the
suspend (ie.  s2ram) code as well as the hibernation, which I'd like to avoid
in this patch series.

swsusp: remove code duplication between disk.c and user.c

2007-07-19T17:04:42+00:00

Currently, much of the code in kernel/power/disk.c is duplicated in
kernel/power/user.c , mainly for historical reasons.  By eliminating this code
duplication we can reduce the size of user.c quite substantially and remove
the maintenance difficulty resulting from it.
