2013-10-16PM / Runtime: Respect autosuspend when idle triggers suspendUlf Hansson
For devices which don't have a .runtime_idle() callback or if it returns 0, rpm_idle() will end up in triggering a call to rpm_suspend(), thus trying to carry out a runtime suspend directly from runtime_idle(). In the above situation we want to respect devices which has enabled autosuspend, we therfore append the flag sent to rpm_suspend with RPM_AUTO. Do note that drivers still needs to update the device last busy mark, to control the delay for this circumstance. Updated runtime PM documentation accordingly.

2013-06-03PM / Runtime: Rework the "runtime idle" helper routineRafael J. Wysocki
The "runtime idle" helper routine, rpm_idle(), currently ignores return values from .runtime_idle() callbacks executed by it. However, it turns out that many subsystems use pm_generic_runtime_idle() which checks the return value of the driver's callback and executes pm_runtime_suspend() for the device unless that value is not 0. If that logic is moved to rpm_idle() instead, pm_generic_runtime_idle() can be dropped and its users will not need any .runtime_idle() callbacks any more. Moreover, the PCI, SCSI, and SATA subsystems' .runtime_idle() routines, pci_pm_runtime_idle(), scsi_runtime_idle(), and ata_port_runtime_idle(), respectively, as well as a few drivers' ones may be simplified if rpm_idle() calls rpm_suspend() after 0 has been returned by the .runtime_idle() callback executed by it. To reduce overall code bloat, make the changes described above. Tested-by: Mika Westerberg <mika.westerberg@linux.intel.com> Tested-by: Kevin Hilman <khilman@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2013-01-06PM: Move disabling/enabling runtime PM to late suspend/early resumeRafael J. Wysocki
Currently, the PM core disables runtime PM for all devices right after executing subsystem/driver .suspend() callbacks for them and re-enables it right before executing subsystem/driver .resume() callbacks for them. This may lead to problems when there are two devices such that the .suspend() callback executed for one of them depends on runtime PM working for the other. In that case, if runtime PM has already been disabled for the second device, the first one's .suspend() won't work correctly (and analogously for resume). To make those issues go away, make the PM core disable runtime PM for devices right before executing subsystem/driver .suspend_late() callbacks for them and enable runtime PM for them right after executing subsystem/driver .resume_early() callbacks for them. This way the potential conflitcs between .suspend_late()/.resume_early() and their runtime PM counterparts are still prevented from happening, but the subtle ordering issues related to disabling/enabling runtime PM for devices during system suspend/resume are much easier to avoid.

2011-12-21PM: Run the driver callback directly if the subsystem one is not thereRafael J. Wysocki
Make the PM core execute driver PM callbacks directly if the corresponding subsystem callbacks are not present. There are three reasons for doing that. First, it reflects the behavior of drivers/base/dd.c:really_probe() that runs the driver's .probe() callback directly if the bus type's one is not defined, so this change will remove one arbitrary difference between the PM core and the remaining parts of the driver core. Second, it will allow some subsystems, whose PM callbacks don't do anything except for executing driver callbacks, to be simplified quite a bit by removing those "forward-only" callbacks. Finally, it will allow us to remove one level of indirection in the system suspend and resume code paths where it is not necessary, which is going to lead to less debug noise with initcall_debug passed in the kernel command line (messages won't be printed for driverless devices whose subsystems don't provide PM callbacks among other things).

2011-11-04PM / Runtime: Automatically retry failed autosuspendsAlan Stern
Originally, the runtime PM core would send an idle notification whenever a suspend attempt failed. The idle callback routine could then schedule a delayed suspend for some time later. However this behavior was changed by commit f71648d73c1650b8b4aceb3856bebbde6daa3b86 (PM / Runtime: Remove idle notification after failing suspend). No notifications were sent, and there was no clear mechanism to retry failed suspends. This caused problems for the usbhid driver, because it fails autosuspend attempts as long as a key is being held down. Therefore this patch (as1492) adds a mechanism for retrying failed autosuspends. If the callback routine updates the last_busy field so that the next autosuspend expiration time is in the future, the autosuspend will automatically be rescheduled.

2011-08-14PM / Runtime: Add might_sleep() to runtime PM functionsColin Cross
Some of the entry points to pm runtime are not safe to call in atomic context unless pm_runtime_irq_safe() has been called. Inspecting the code, it is not immediately obvious that the functions sleep at all, as they run inside a spin_lock_irqsave, but under some conditions they can drop the lock and turn on irqs. If a driver incorrectly calls the pm_runtime apis, it can cause sleeping and irq processing when it expects to stay in atomic context. Add might_sleep_if to the majority of the __pm_runtime_* entry points to enforce correct usage. Add pm_runtime_put_sync_autosuspend to the list of functions that can be called in atomic context.

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>

2011-03-15PM: 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.

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.

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.

A few new fields are added to the dev_pm_info structure and several new PM helper functions are defined, for telling the PM core whether or not a device uses autosuspend, for setting the autosuspend delay, and for marking periods of device activity. Drivers that do not want to use autosuspend can continue using the same helper functions as before; their behavior will not change. In addition, drivers supporting autosuspend can also call the old helper functions to get the old behavior.

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.

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>
2010-03-06PM / Runtime: Document power.runtime_auto and related functionsRafael J. Wysocki
The power.runtime_auto device flag and the helper functions pm_runtime_allow() and pm_runtime_forbid() used to modify it are a part of the run-time power management framework and therefore they should be described in Documentation/power/runtime_pm.txt. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>

2009-12-22PM: Runtime PM documentation updateAlan Stern
This patch (as1318) updates the runtime PM documentation, adding a section discussing the interaction between runtime PM and system sleep. [rjw: Rebased and made it agree with the other updates better.] Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
2009-12-22PM / Runtime: Use device type and device class callbacksRafael J. Wysocki
The power management of some devices is handled through device types and device classes rather than through bus types. Since these devices may also benefit from using the run-time power management core, extend it so that the device type and device class run-time PM callbacks can be taken into consideration by it if the bus type callback is not defined. Update the run-time PM core documentation to reflect this change. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
2009-12-06PM: Add flag for devices capable of generating run-time wake-up eventsRafael J. Wysocki
Apparently, there are devices that can wake up the system from sleep states and yet are incapable of generating wake-up events at run time. Thus, introduce a flag indicating if given device is capable of generating run-time wake-up events. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
2009-12-06PM / Runtime: Make documentation of runtime_idle() agree with the codeRafael J. Wysocki
Currently the ->runtime_idle() callback is documented as having no return value, but in fact it returns int. Although its return value is ignored at the PM core level, it may be used by bus type routines executing the drivers' ->runtime_idle() callbacks. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2009-08-23PM: Introduce core framework for run-time PM of I/O devices (rev. 17)Rafael J. Wysocki
Introduce a core framework for run-time power management of I/O devices. Add device run-time PM fields to 'struct dev_pm_info' and device run-time PM callbacks to 'struct dev_pm_ops'. Introduce a run-time PM workqueue and define some device run-time PM helper functions at the core level. Document all these things. Special thanks to Alan Stern for his help with the design and multiple detailed reviews of the pereceding versions of this patch and to Magnus Damm for testing feedback. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
