PM / Hibernate: Return error code when alloc_image_page() fails

2011-03-21T19:45:10+00:00

commit 2e725a065b0153f0c449318da1923a120477633d upstream.

Currently we return 0 in swsusp_alloc() when alloc_image_page() fails.
Fix that.  Also remove unneeded "error" variable since the only
useful value of error is -ENOMEM.

[rjw: Fixed up the changelog and changed subject.]

PM / Hibernate: Fix PM_POST_* notification with user-space suspend

2011-03-21T19:44:24+00:00

commit 1497dd1d29c6a53fcd3c80f7ac8d0e0239e7389e upstream.

The user-space hibernation sends a wrong notification after the image
restoration because of thinko for the file flag check.  RDONLY
corresponds to hibernation and WRONLY to restoration, confusingly.

Freezer: Fix buggy resume test for tasks frozen with cgroup freezer

2010-04-26T14:47:47+00:00

commit 5a7aadfe2fcb0f69e2acc1fbefe22a096e792fc9 upstream.

When the cgroup freezer is used to freeze tasks we do not want to thaw
those tasks during resume. Currently we test the cgroup freezer
state of the resuming tasks to see if the cgroup is FROZEN.  If so
then we don't thaw the task. However, the FREEZING state also indicates
that the task should remain frozen.

This also avoids a problem pointed out by Oren Ladaan: the freezer state
transition from FREEZING to FROZEN is updated lazily when userspace reads
or writes the freezer.state file in the cgroup filesystem. This means that
resume will thaw tasks in cgroups which should be in the FROZEN state if
there is no read/write of the freezer.state file to trigger this
transition before suspend.

NOTE: Another "simple" solution would be to always update the cgroup
freezer state during resume. However it's a bad choice for several reasons:
Updating the cgroup freezer state is somewhat expensive because it requires
walking all the tasks in the cgroup and checking if they are each frozen.
Worse, this could easily make resume run in N^2 time where N is the number
of tasks in the cgroup. Finally, updating the freezer state from this code
path requires trickier locking because of the way locks must be ordered.

Instead of updating the freezer state we rely on the fact that lazy
updates only manage the transition from FREEZING to FROZEN. We know that
a cgroup with the FREEZING state may actually be FROZEN so test for that
state too. This makes sense in the resume path even for partially-frozen
cgroups -- those that really are FREEZING but not FROZEN.

PM / Hibernate: Fix preallocating of memory

2010-03-15T16:06:10+00:00

commit a9c9b4429df437982d2fbfab1f4b46b01329e9ed upstream.

The hibernate memory preallocation code allocates memory to push some
user space data out of physical RAM, so that the hibernation image is
not too large.  It allocates more memory than necessary for creating
the image, so it has to release some pages to make room for
allocations made while suspending devices and disabling nonboot CPUs,
or the system will hang due to the lack of free pages to allocate
from.  Unfortunately, the function used for freeing these pages,
free_unnecessary_pages(), contains a bug that prevents it from doing
the job on all systems without highmem.

Fix this problem, which is a regression from the 2.6.30 kernel, by
using the right condition for the termination of the loop in
free_unnecessary_pages().

vt: introduce and use vt_kmsg_redirect() function

2009-12-15T16:53:28+00:00

The kernel offers with TIOCL_GETKMSGREDIRECT ioctl() the possibility to
redirect the kernel messages to a specific console.

However, since it's not possible to switch to the kernel message console
after a panic(), it would be nice if the kernel would print the panic
message on the current console.

This patch series adds a new interface to access the global kmsg_redirect
variable by a function to be able to use it in code where
CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE is not set (kernel/panic.c).

This patch:

Instead of using and exporting a global value kmsg_redirect, introduce a
function vt_kmsg_redirect() that both can set and return the console where
messages are printed.

Change all users of kmsg_redirect (the VT code itself and kernel/power.c)
to the new interface.

The main advantage is that vt_kmsg_redirect() can also be used when
CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE is not set.
