PM / QoS: Make it possible to expose PM QoS latency constraints

2012-03-13T21:37:14Z

A runtime suspend of a device (e.g. an MMC controller) belonging to a power domain or, in a more complicated scenario, a runtime suspend of another device in the same power domain, may cause power to be removed from the entire domain. In that case, the amount of time necessary to runtime-resume the given device (e.g. the MMC controller) is often substantially greater than the time needed to run its driver's runtime resume callback. That may hurt performance in some situations, because user data may need to wait for the device to become operational, so we should make it possible to prevent that from happening. For this reason, introduce a new sysfs attribute for devices, power/pm_qos_resume_latency_us, allowing user space to specify the upper bound of the time necessary to bring the (runtime-suspended) device up after the resume of it has been requested. However, make that attribute appear only for the devices whose drivers declare support for it by calling the (new) dev_pm_qos_expose_latency_limit() helper function with the appropriate initial value of the attribute.

PM: Add comment describing relationships between PM callbacks to pm.h

2012-02-17T22:36:30Z

The UNIVERSAL_DEV_PM_OPS() macro is slightly misleading, because it may suggest that it's a good idea to point runtime PM callback pointers to the same routines as system suspend/resume callbacks .suspend() and .resume(), which is not the case. For this reason, add a comment to include/linux/pm.h, next to the definition of UNIVERSAL_DEV_PM_OPS(), describing how device PM callbacks are related to each other. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

PM / Sleep: Introduce generic callbacks for new device PM phases

Introduce generic subsystem callbacks for the new phases of device suspend/resume during system power transitions: "late suspend", "early resume", "late freeze", "early thaw", "late poweroff", "early restore". Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

PM / Sleep: Introduce "late suspend" and "early resume" of devices

2012-01-29T19:38:29Z

The current device suspend/resume phases during system-wide power transitions appear to be insufficient for some platforms that want to use the same callback routines for saving device states and related operations during runtime suspend/resume as well as during system suspend/resume. In principle, they could point their .suspend_noirq() and .resume_noirq() to the same callback routines as their .runtime_suspend() and .runtime_resume(), respectively, but at least some of them require device interrupts to be enabled while the code in those routines is running. It also makes sense to have device suspend-resume callbacks that will be executed with runtime PM disabled and with device interrupts enabled in case someone needs to run some special code in that context during system-wide power transitions. Apart from this, .suspend_noirq() and .resume_noirq() were introduced as a workaround for drivers using shared interrupts and failing to prevent their interrupt handlers from accessing suspended hardware. It appears to be better not to use them for other porposes, or we may have to deal with some serious confusion (which seems to be happening already). For the above reasons, introduce new device suspend/resume phases, "late suspend" and "early resume" (and analogously for hibernation) whose callback will be executed with runtime PM disabled and with device interrupts enabled and whose callback pointers generally may point to runtime suspend/resume routines.

* pm-runtime: PM / Runtime: Use device PM QoS constraints (v2)

PM: Drop generic_subsys_pm_ops

2011-12-21T21:03:32Z

Since the PM core is now going to execute driver callbacks directly if the corresponding subsystem callbacks are not present, forward-only subsystem callbacks (i.e. such that only execute the corresponding driver callbacks) are not necessary any more. Thus it is possible to remove generic_subsys_pm_ops, because the only callback in there that is not forward-only, .runtime_idle, is not really used by the only user of generic_subsys_pm_ops, which is vio_bus_type. However, the generic callback routines themselves cannot be removed from generic_ops.c, because they are used individually by a number of subsystems. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

PM / Runtime: Use device PM QoS constraints (v2)

2011-12-01T20:46:42Z

Make the runtime PM core use device PM QoS constraints to check if it is allowed to suspend a given device, so that an error code is returned if the device's own PM QoS constraint is negative or one of its children has already been suspended for too long. If this is not the case, the maximum estimated time the device is allowed to be suspended, computed as the minimum of the device's PM QoS constraint and the PM QoS constraints of its children (reduced by the difference between the current time and their suspend times) is stored in a new device's PM field power.max_time_suspended_ns that can be used by the device's subsystem or PM domain to decide whether or not to put the device into lower-power (and presumably higher-latency) states later (if the constraint is 0, which means "no constraint", the power.max_time_suspended_ns is set to -1). Additionally, the time of execution of the subsystem-level .runtime_suspend() callback for the device is recorded in the new power.suspend_time field for later use by the device's subsystem or PM domain along with power.max_time_suspended_ns (it also is used by the core code when the device's parent is suspended). Introduce a new helper function, pm_runtime_update_max_time_suspended(), allowing subsystems and PM domains (or device drivers) to update the power.max_time_suspended_ns field, for example after changing the power state of a suspended device.

PM Sleep: Do not extend wakeup paths to devices with ignore_children set

2011-11-17T20:39:33Z

Commit 4ca46ff3e0d8c234cb40ebb6457653b59584426c (PM / Sleep: Mark devices involved in wakeup signaling during suspend) introduced the power.wakeup_path field in struct dev_pm_info to mark devices whose children are enabled to wake up the system from sleep states, so that power domains containing the parents that provide their children with wakeup power and/or relay their wakeup signals are not turned off. Unfortunately, that introduced a PM regression on SH7372 whose power consumption in the system "memory sleep" state increased as a result of it, because it prevented the power domain containing the I2C controller from being turned off when some children of that controller were enabled to wake up the system, although the controller was not necessary for them to signal wakeup. To fix this issue use the observation that devices whose power.ignore_children flag is set for runtime PM should be treated analogously during system suspend. Namely, they shouldn't be included in wakeup paths going through their children. Since the SH7372 I2C controller's power.ignore_children flag is set, doing so will restore the previous behavior of that SOC. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
