2011-08-25PM / Runtime: Correct documentation of pm_runtime_irq_safe()Rafael J. Wysocki
The description of pm_runtime_irq_safe() has to be updated to follow the code after commit 02b2677 (PM / Runtime: Allow _put_sync() from interrupts-disabled context). Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl> Acked-by: Kevin Hilman <khilman@ti.com>
2011-08-05PM / Runtime: Allow _put_sync() from interrupts-disabled contextKevin Hilman
Currently the use of pm_runtime_put_sync() is not safe from interrupts-disabled context because rpm_idle() will release the spinlock and enable interrupts for the idle callbacks. This enables interrupts during a time where interrupts were expected to be disabled, and can have strange side effects on drivers that expected interrupts to be disabled. This is not a bug since the documentation clearly states that only _put_sync_suspend() is safe in IRQ-safe mode. However, pm_runtime_put_sync() could be made safe when in IRQ-safe mode by releasing the spinlock but not re-enabling interrupts, which is what this patch aims to do. Problem was found when using some buggy drivers that set pm_runtime_irq_safe() and used _put_sync() in interrupts-disabled context.

2011-07-06PM: Limit race conditions between runtime PM and system sleep (v2)Rafael J. Wysocki
One of the roles of the PM core is to prevent different PM callbacks executed for the same device object from racing with each other. Unfortunately, after commit e8665002477f0278f84f898145b1f141ba26ee26 (PM: Allow pm_runtime_suspend() to succeed during system suspend) runtime PM callbacks may be executed concurrently with system suspend/resume callbacks for the same device. The main reason for commit e8665002477f0278f84f898145b1f141ba26ee26 was that some subsystems and device drivers wanted to use runtime PM helpers, pm_runtime_suspend() and pm_runtime_put_sync() in particular, for carrying out the suspend of devices in their .suspend() callbacks. However, as it's been determined recently, there are multiple reasons not to do so, inlcuding: * The caller really doesn't control the runtime PM usage counters, because user space can access them through sysfs and effectively block runtime PM. That means using pm_runtime_suspend() or pm_runtime_get_sync() to suspend devices during system suspend may or may not work. * If a driver calls pm_runtime_suspend() from its .suspend() callback, it causes the subsystem's .runtime_suspend() callback to be executed, which leads to the call sequence: subsys->suspend(dev) driver->suspend(dev) pm_runtime_suspend(dev) subsys->runtime_suspend(dev) recursive from the subsystem's point of view. For some subsystems that may actually work (e.g. the platform bus type), but for some it will fail in a rather spectacular fashion (e.g. PCI). In each case it means a layering violation. * Both the subsystem and the driver can provide .suspend_noirq() callbacks for system suspend that can do whatever the .runtime_suspend() callbacks do just fine, so it really isn't necessary to call pm_runtime_suspend() during system suspend. * The runtime PM's handling of wakeup devices is usually different from the system suspend's one, so .runtime_suspend() may simply be inappropriate for system suspend. * System suspend is supposed to work even if CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME is unset. * The runtime PM workqueue is frozen before system suspend, so if whatever the driver is going to do during system suspend depends on it, that simply won't work. Still, there is a good reason to allow pm_runtime_resume() to succeed during system suspend and resume (for instance, some subsystems and device drivers may legitimately use it to ensure that their devices are in full-power states before suspending them). Moreover, there is no reason to prevent runtime PM callbacks from being executed in parallel with the system suspend/resume .prepare() and .complete() callbacks and the code removed by commit e8665002477f0278f84f898145b1f141ba26ee26 went too far in this respect. On the other hand, runtime PM callbacks, including .runtime_resume(), must not be executed during system suspend's "late" stage of suspending devices and during system resume's "early" device resume stage. Taking all of the above into consideration, make the PM core acquire a runtime PM reference to every device and resume it if there's a runtime PM resume request pending right before executing the subsystem-level .suspend() callback for it. Make the PM core drop references to all devices right after executing the subsystem-level .resume() callbacks for them. Additionally, make the PM core disable the runtime PM framework for all devices during system suspend, after executing the subsystem-level .suspend() callbacks for them, and enable the runtime PM framework for all devices during system resume, right before executing the subsystem-level .resume() callbacks for them.

2011-07-02PM / Runtime: Return special error code if runtime PM is disabledRafael J. Wysocki
Some callers of pm_runtime_get_sync() and other runtime PM helper functions, scsi_autopm_get_host() and scsi_autopm_get_device() in particular, need to distinguish error codes returned when runtime PM is disabled (i.e. power.disable_depth is nonzero for the given device) from error codes returned in other situations. For this reason, make the runtime PM helper functions return -EACCES when power.disable_depth is nonzero and ensure that this error code won't be returned by them in any other circumstances. Modify scsi_autopm_get_host() and scsi_autopm_get_device() to check the error code returned by pm_runtime_get_sync() and ignore -EACCES. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>

2011-07-02PM / Domains: Rename struct dev_power_domain to struct dev_pm_domainRafael J. Wysocki
The naming convention used by commit 7538e3db6e015e890825fbd9f86599b (PM: Add support for device power domains), which introduced the struct dev_power_domain type for representing device power domains, evidently confuses some developers who tend to think that objects of this type must correspond to "power domains" as defined by hardware, which is not the case. Namely, at the kernel level, a struct dev_power_domain object can represent arbitrary set of devices that are mutually dependent power management-wise and need not belong to one hardware power domain. To avoid that confusion, rename struct dev_power_domain to struct dev_pm_domain and rename the related pointers in struct device and struct pm_clk_notifier_block from pwr_domain to pm_domain.

2011-05-17PM: Allow drivers to allocate memory from .prepare() callbacks safelyRafael J. Wysocki
If device drivers allocate substantial amounts of memory (above 1 MB) in their hibernate .freeze() callbacks (or in their legacy suspend callbcks during hibernation), the subsequent creation of hibernate image may fail due to the lack of memory. This is the case, because the drivers' .freeze() callbacks are executed after the hibernate memory preallocation has been carried out and the preallocated amount of memory may be too small to cover the new driver allocations. Unfortunately, the drivers' .prepare() callbacks also are executed after the hibernate memory preallocation has completed, so they are not suitable for allocating additional memory either. Thus the only way a driver can safely allocate memory during hibernation is to use a hibernate/suspend notifier. However, the notifiers are called before the freezing of user space and the drivers wanting to use them for allocating additional memory may not know how much memory needs to be allocated at that point. To let device drivers overcome this difficulty rework the hibernation sequence so that the memory preallocation is carried out after the drivers' .prepare() callbacks have been executed, so that the .prepare() callbacks can be used for allocating additional memory to be used by the drivers' .freeze() callbacks. Update documentation to match the new behavior of the code. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>

2011-03-15PM: Make system-wide PM and runtime PM treat subsystems consistentlyRafael J. Wysocki
The code handling system-wide power transitions (eg. suspend-to-RAM) can in theory execute callbacks provided by the device's bus type, device type and class in each phase of the power transition. In turn, the runtime PM core code only calls one of those callbacks at a time, preferring bus type callbacks to device type or class callbacks and device type callbacks to class callbacks. It seems reasonable to make them both behave in the same way in that respect. Moreover, even though a device may belong to two subsystems (eg. bus type and device class) simultaneously, in practice power management callbacks for system-wide power transitions are always provided by only one of them (ie. if the bus type callbacks are defined, the device class ones are not and vice versa). Thus it is possible to modify the code handling system-wide power transitions so that it follows the core runtime PM code (ie. treats the subsystem callbacks as mutually exclusive). On the other hand, the core runtime PM code will choose to execute, for example, a runtime suspend callback provided by the device type even if the bus type's struct dev_pm_ops object exists, but the runtime_suspend pointer in it happens to be NULL. This is confusing, because it may lead to the execution of callbacks from different subsystems during different operations (eg. the bus type suspend callback may be executed during runtime suspend of the device, while the device type callback will be executed during system suspend). Make all of the power management code treat subsystem callbacks in a consistent way, such that: (1) If the device's type is defined (eg. dev->type is not NULL) and its pm pointer is not NULL, the callbacks from dev->type->pm will be used. (2) If dev->type is NULL or dev->type->pm is NULL, but the device's class is defined (eg. dev->class is not NULL) and its pm pointer is not NULL, the callbacks from dev->class->pm will be used. (3) If dev->type is NULL or dev->type->pm is NULL and dev->class is NULL or dev->class->pm is NULL, the callbacks from dev->bus->pm will be used provided that both dev->bus and dev->bus->pm are not NULL.

2011-03-15PM: Add support for device power domainsRafael J. Wysocki
The platform bus type is often used to handle Systems-on-a-Chip (SoC) where all devices are represented by objects of type struct platform_device. In those cases the same "platform" device driver may be used with multiple different system configurations, but the actions needed to put the devices it handles into a low-power state and back into the full-power state may depend on the design of the given SoC. The driver, however, cannot possibly include all the information necessary for the power management of its device on all the systems it is used with. Moreover, the device hierarchy in its current form also is not suitable for representing this kind of information. The patch below attempts to address this problem by introducing objects of type struct dev_power_domain that can be used for representing power domains within a SoC. Every struct dev_power_domain object provides a sets of device power management callbacks that can be used to perform what's needed for device power management in addition to the operations carried out by the device's driver and subsystem. Namely, if a struct dev_power_domain object is pointed to by the pwr_domain field in a struct device, the callbacks provided by its ops member will be executed in addition to the corresponding callbacks provided by the device's subsystem and driver during all power transitions.

2011-03-15PM: Do not create wakeup sysfs files for devices that cannot wake upRafael J. Wysocki
Currently, wakeup sysfs attributes are created for all devices, regardless of whether or not they are wakeup-capable. This is excessive and complicates wakeup device identification from user space (i.e. to identify wakeup-capable devices user space has to read /sys/devices/.../power/wakeup for all devices and see if they are not empty). Fix this issue by avoiding to create wakeup sysfs files for devices that cannot wake up the system from sleep states (i.e. whose power.can_wakeup flags are unset during registration) and modify device_set_wakeup_capable() so that it adds (or removes) the relevant sysfs attributes if a device's wakeup capability status is changed.

2010-12-24PM / Runtime: Add synchronous runtime interface for interrupt handlers (v3)Alan Stern
This patch (as1431c) makes the synchronous runtime-PM interface suitable for use in interrupt handlers. Subsystems can call the new pm_runtime_irq_safe() function to tell the PM core that a device's runtime_suspend and runtime_resume callbacks should be invoked with interrupts disabled and the spinlock held. This permits the pm_runtime_get_sync() and the new pm_runtime_put_sync_suspend() routines to be called from within interrupt handlers. When a device is declared irq-safe in this way, the PM core increments the parent's usage count, so the parent will never be runtime suspended. This prevents difficult situations in which an irq-safe device can't resume because it is forced to wait for its non-irq-safe parent.

2010-12-16PM / Runtime: Fix pm_runtime_suspended()Rafael J. Wysocki
There are some situations (e.g. in __pm_generic_call()), where pm_runtime_suspended() is used to decide whether or not to execute a device's (system) ->suspend() callback. The callback is not executed if pm_runtime_suspended() returns true, but it does so for devices that don't even support runtime PM, because the power.disable_depth device field is ignored by it. This leads to problems (i.e. devices are not suspened when they should), so rework pm_runtime_suspended() so that it returns false if the device's power.disable_depth field is different from zero.

2010-10-17PM: Introduce library for device-specific OPPs (v7)Nishanth Menon
SoCs have a standard set of tuples consisting of frequency and voltage pairs that the device will support per voltage domain. These are called Operating Performance Points or OPPs. The actual definitions of OPP varies over silicon versions. For a specific domain, we can have a set of {frequency, voltage} pairs. As the kernel boots and more information is available, a default set of these are activated based on the precise nature of device. Further on operation, based on conditions prevailing in the system (such as temperature), some OPP availability may be temporarily controlled by the SoC frameworks. To implement an OPP, some sort of power management support is necessary hence this library depends on CONFIG_PM. Contributions include: Sanjeev Premi for the initial concept: http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/50998/ Kevin Hilman for converting original design to device-based. Kevin Hilman and Paul Walmsey for cleaning up many of the function abstractions, improvements and data structure handling. Romit Dasgupta for using enums instead of opp pointers.

2010-10-17PM / Runtime: Add no_callbacks flagAlan Stern
Some devices, such as USB interfaces, cannot be power-managed independently of their parents, i.e., they cannot be put in low power while the parent remains at full power. This patch (as1425) creates a new "no_callbacks" flag, which tells the PM core not to invoke the runtime-PM callback routines for the such devices but instead to assume that the callbacks always succeed. In addition, the non-debugging runtime-PM sysfs attributes for the devices are removed, since they are pretty much meaningless. The advantage of this scheme comes not so much from avoiding the callbacks themselves, but rather from the fact that without the need for a process context in which to run the callbacks, more work can be done in interrupt context.

2010-05-18PM/PCI: Update PCI power management documentationRafael J. Wysocki
I power management document, Documentation/power/pci.txt, is outdated and partially inaccurate. It also is missing some important information about the power management of PCI device. Rewrite it to make it more up to date and more complete. Reviewed-by: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
2010-05-10PM QOS updateMark Gross
This patch changes the string based list management to a handle base implementation to help with the hot path use of pm-qos, it also renames much of the API to use "request" as opposed to "requirement" that was used in the initial implementation. I did this because request more accurately represents what it actually does. Also, I added a string based ABI for users wanting to use a string interface. So if the user writes 0xDDDDDDDD formatted hex it will be accepted by the interface. (someone asked me for it and I don't think it hurts anything.) This patch updates some documentation input I got from Randy. Signed-off-by: markgross <mgross@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>

2010-03-06PM: Provide generic subsystem-level callbacksRafael J. Wysocki
There are subsystems whose power management callbacks only need to invoke the callbacks provided by device drivers. Still, their system sleep PM callbacks should play well with the runtime PM callbacks, so that devices suspended at run time can be left in that state for a system sleep transition. Provide a set of generic PM callbacks for such subsystems and define convenience macros for populating dev_pm_ops structures. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
