PM: Do not hold dpm_list_mtx while disabling/enabling nonboot CPUs

2009-05-24T19:15:07Z

We shouldn't hold dpm_list_mtx while executing [disable|enable]_nonboot_cpus(), because theoretically this may lead to a deadlock as shown by the following example (provided by Johannes Berg): CPU 3 CPU 2 CPU 1 suspend/hibernate something: rtnl_lock() device_pm_lock() -> mutex_lock(&dpm_list_mtx) mutex_lock(&dpm_list_mtx) linkwatch_work -> rtnl_lock() disable_nonboot_cpus() -> flush CPU 3 workqueue Fortunately, device drivers are supposed to stop any activities that might lead to the registration of new device objects way before disable_nonboot_cpus() is called, so it shouldn't be necessary to hold dpm_list_mtx over the entire late part of device suspend and early part of device resume. Thus, during the late suspend and the early resume of devices acquire dpm_list_mtx only when dpm_list is going to be traversed and release it right after that.

PM: check sysdev_suspend(PMSG_FREEZE) return value

2009-05-15T21:30:50Z

Check the return value of sysdev_suspend(). I think this was a typo. Without this change, the following "if" check is always false. I also changed the error message so it's distinguishable from the similar message a few lines above. Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas Acked-by: Pavel Machek Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

PM/Hibernate: Fix waiting for image device to appear on resume

2009-04-24T22:31:30Z

Commit c751085943362143f84346d274e0011419c84202 ("PM/Hibernate: Wait for SCSI devices scan to complete during resume") added a call to scsi_complete_async_scans() to software_resume(), so that it waited for the SCSI scanning to complete, but the call was added at a wrong place. Namely, it should have been added after wait_for_device_probe(), which is called only if the image partition hasn't been specified yet. Also, it's reasonable to check if the image partition is present and only wait for the device probing and SCSI scanning to complete if it is not the case. Additionally, since noresume is checked right at the beginning of software_resume() and the function returns immediately if it's set, it doesn't make sense to check it once again later.

PM/Suspend: Introduce two new platform callbacks to avoid breakage

2009-04-19T18:08:42Z

Commit 900af0d973856d6feb6fc088c2d0d3fde57707d3 (PM: Change suspend code ordering) changed the ordering of suspend code in such a way that the platform .prepare() callback is now executed after the device drivers' late suspend callbacks have run. Unfortunately, this turns out to break ARM platforms that need to talk via I2C to power control devices during the .prepare() callback. For this reason introduce two new platform suspend callbacks, .prepare_late() and .wake(), that will be called just prior to disabling non-boot CPUs and right after bringing them back on line, respectively, and use them instead of .prepare() and .finish() for ACPI suspend. Make the PM core execute the .prepare() and .finish() platform suspend callbacks where they were executed previously (that is, right after calling the regular suspend methods provided by device drivers and right before executing their regular resume methods, respectively). It is not necessary to make analogous changes to the hibernation code and data structures at the moment, because they are only used by ACPI platforms. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

PM/Hibernate: Wait for SCSI devices scan to complete during resume

2009-04-13T18:37:07Z

There is a race between resume from hibernation and the asynchronous scanning of SCSI devices and to prevent it from happening we need to call scsi_complete_async_scans() during resume from hibernation. In addition, if the resume from hibernation is userland-driven, it's better to wait for all device probes in the kernel to complete before attempting to open the resume device.

mm: introduce for_each_populated_zone() macro

2009-04-01T15:59:11Z

Impact: cleanup In almost cases, for_each_zone() is used with populated_zone(). It's because almost function doesn't need memoryless node information. Therefore, for_each_populated_zone() can help to make code simplify. This patch has no functional change.

PM: Change hibernation code ordering

2009-03-30T19:46:54Z

Change the ordering of the hibernation core code so that the platform "prepare" callbacks are executed and the nonboot CPUs are disabled after calling device drivers' "late suspend" methods. This change (along with the previous analogous change of the suspend core code) will allow us to rework the PCI PM core so that the power state of devices is changed in the "late" phase of suspend (and analogously in the "early" phase of resume), which in turn will allow us to avoid the race condition where a device using shared interrupts is put into a low power state with interrupts enabled and then an interrupt (for another device) comes in and confuses its driver.
