PM / Hibernate: Fix s2disk regression related to freezing workqueues

2012-01-29T19:35:52+00:00

Commit 2aede851ddf08666f68ffc17be446420e9d2a056

  PM / Hibernate: Freeze kernel threads after preallocating memory

introduced a mechanism by which kernel threads were frozen after
the preallocation of hibernate image memory to avoid problems with
frozen kernel threads not responding to memory freeing requests.
However, it overlooked the s2disk code path in which the
SNAPSHOT_CREATE_IMAGE ioctl was run directly after SNAPSHOT_FREE,
which caused freeze_workqueues_begin() to BUG(), because it saw
that worqueues had been already frozen.

Although in principle this issue might be addressed by removing
the relevant BUG_ON() from freeze_workqueues_begin(), that would
reintroduce the very problem that commit 2aede851ddf08666f68ffc17be4
attempted to avoid into that particular code path.  For this reason,
to fix the issue at hand, introduce thaw_kernel_threads() and make
the SNAPSHOT_FREE ioctl execute it.

Special thanks to Srivatsa S. Bhat for detailed analysis of the
problem.

PM / Hibernate: Correct additional pages number calculation

2012-01-19T22:23:10+00:00

The struct bm_block is allocated by chain_alloc(),
so it'd better counting it in LINKED_PAGE_DATA_SIZE.

PM / Hibernate: Drop the check of swap space size for compressed image

2012-01-13T23:41:37+00:00

For compressed image, the space required is not known until
we finish compressing and writing all pages.
This patch drops the check, and if swap space is not enough
finally, system can still restore to normal after writing
swap fails for compressed images.

PM/Hibernate: do not count debug pages as savable

2012-01-11T00:30:42+00:00

When debugging with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC and debug_guardpage_minorder >
0, we have lot of free pages that are not marked so.  Snapshot code
account them as savable, what cause hibernate memory preallocation
failure.

It is pretty hard to make hibernate allocation succeed with
debug_guardpage_minorder=1.  This change at least make it possible when
system has relatively big amount of RAM.

fs: move code out of buffer.c

2012-01-04T03:54:07+00:00

Move invalidate_bdev, block_sync_page into fs/block_dev.c.  Export
kill_bdev as well, so brd doesn't have to open code it.  Reduce
buffer_head.h requirement accordingly.

Removed a rather large comment from invalidate_bdev, as it looked a bit
obsolete to bother moving.  The small comment replacing it says enough.

PM / Hibernate: Remove deprecated hibernation snapshot ioctls

2011-12-09T22:37:07+00:00

Several snapshot ioctls were marked for removal quite some time ago,
since they were deprecated. Remove them.

PM / Sleep: Replace mutex_[un]lock(&pm_mutex) with [un]lock_system_sleep()

2011-12-08T22:22:29+00:00

Using [un]lock_system_sleep() is safer than directly using mutex_[un]lock()
on 'pm_mutex', since the latter could lead to freezing failures. Hence convert
all the present users of mutex_[un]lock(&pm_mutex) to use these safe APIs
instead.

PM / Hibernate: Replace unintuitive 'if' condition in kernel/power/user.c with 'else'

2011-12-06T21:13:44+00:00

In the snapshot_ioctl() function, under SNAPSHOT_FREEZE, the code below
freeze_processes() is a bit unintuitive. Improve it by replacing the
second 'if' condition with an 'else' clause.
