PM / Hibernate: Enable suspend to both for in-kernel hibernation.

2012-07-01T11:31:22Z

It is often useful to suspend to memory after hibernation image has been written to disk. If the battery runs out or power is otherwise lost, the computer will resume from the hibernated image. If not, it will resume from memory and hibernation image will be discarded. Signed-off-by: Bojan Smojver Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

PM / Sleep: Add user space interface for manipulating wakeup sources, v3

2012-05-01T19:26:05Z

Android allows user space to manipulate wakelocks using two sysfs file located in /sys/power/, wake_lock and wake_unlock. Writing a wakelock name and optionally a timeout to the wake_lock file causes the wakelock whose name was written to be acquired (it is created before is necessary), optionally with the given timeout. Writing the name of a wakelock to wake_unlock causes that wakelock to be released. Implement an analogous interface for user space using wakeup sources. Add the /sys/power/wake_lock and /sys/power/wake_unlock files allowing user space to create, activate and deactivate wakeup sources, such that writing a name and optionally a timeout to wake_lock causes the wakeup source of that name to be activated, optionally with the given timeout. If that wakeup source doesn't exist, it will be created and then activated. Writing a name to wake_unlock causes the wakeup source of that name, if there is one, to be deactivated. Wakeup sources created with the help of wake_lock that haven't been used for more than 5 minutes are garbage collected and destroyed. Moreover, there can be only WL_NUMBER_LIMIT wakeup sources created with the help of wake_lock present at a time. The data type used to track wakeup sources created by user space is called "struct wakelock" to indicate the origins of this feature. This version of the patch includes an rbtree manipulation fix from John Stultz. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Reviewed-by: NeilBrown

PM / Sleep: Implement opportunistic sleep, v2

2012-05-01T19:25:38Z

Introduce a mechanism by which the kernel can trigger global transitions to a sleep state chosen by user space if there are no active wakeup sources. It consists of a new sysfs attribute, /sys/power/autosleep, that can be written one of the strings returned by reads from /sys/power/state, an ordered workqueue and a work item carrying out the "suspend" operations. If a string representing the system's sleep state is written to /sys/power/autosleep, the work item triggering transitions to that state is queued up and it requeues itself after every execution until user space writes "off" to /sys/power/autosleep. That work item enables the detection of wakeup events using the functions already defined in drivers/base/power/wakeup.c (with one small modification) and calls either pm_suspend(), or hibernate() to put the system into a sleep state. If a wakeup event is reported while the transition is in progress, it will abort the transition and the "system suspend" work item will be queued up again. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

PM / Sleep: Make enter_state() in kernel/power/suspend.c static

2012-02-17T22:36:10Z

The enter_state() function in kernel/power/suspend.c should be static and state_store() in kernel/power/suspend.c should call pm_suspend() instead of it, so make that happen (which also reduces code duplication related to suspend statistics).

PM / Sleep: Remove unnecessary label from suspend_freeze_processes()

2012-02-13T15:26:13Z

The Finish label in suspend_freeze_processes() is in fact unnecessary and makes the function look more complicated than it really is, so remove that label (along with a few empty lines). Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki Acked-by: Srivatsa S. Bhat

PM / Freezer: Thaw only kernel threads if freezing of kernel threads fails

2012-02-04T21:23:05Z

If freezing of kernel threads fails, we are expected to automatically thaw tasks in the error recovery path. However, at times, we encounter situations in which we would like the automatic error recovery path to thaw only the kernel threads, because we want to be able to do some more cleanup before we thaw userspace. Something like: error = freeze_kernel_threads(); if (error) { /* Do some cleanup */ /* Only then thaw userspace tasks*/ thaw_processes(); } An example of such a situation is where we freeze/thaw filesystems during suspend/hibernation. There, if freezing of kernel threads fails, we would like to thaw the frozen filesystems before thawing the userspace tasks. So, modify freeze_kernel_threads() to thaw only kernel threads in case of freezing failure. And change suspend_freeze_processes() accordingly. (At the same time, let us also get rid of the rather cryptic usage of the conditional operator (:?) in that function.) [rjw: In fact, this patch fixes a regression introduced during the 3.3 merge window, because without it thaw_processes() may be called before swsusp_free() in some situations and that may lead to massive memory allocation failures.] Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S.

PM / Hibernate: Thaw processes in SNAPSHOT_CREATE_IMAGE ioctl test path

2011-12-06T21:07:59Z

Commit 2aede851ddf08666f68ffc17be446420e9d2a056 (PM / Hibernate: Freeze kernel threads after preallocating memory) moved the freezing of kernel threads to hibernation_snapshot() function. So now, if the call to hibernation_snapshot() returns early due to a successful hibernation test, the caller has to thaw processes to ensure that the system gets back to its original state. But in SNAPSHOT_CREATE_IMAGE hibernation ioctl, the caller does not thaw processes in case hibernation_snapshot() returned due to a successful freezer test. Fix this issue. But note we still send the value of 'in_suspend' (which is now 0) to userspace, because we are not in an error path per-se, and moreover, the value of in_suspend correctly depicts the situation here.

PM / Hibernate: Improve performance of LZO/plain hibernation, checksum image

2011-10-16T21:30:38Z

Use threads for LZO compression/decompression on hibernate/thaw. Improve buffering on hibernate/thaw. Calculate/verify CRC32 of the image pages on hibernate/thaw. In my testing, this improved write/read speed by a factor of about two. Signed-off-by: Bojan Smojver Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

PM / Hibernate: Freeze kernel threads after preallocating memory

2011-10-16T21:28:52Z

There is a problem with the current ordering of hibernate code which leads to deadlocks in some filesystems' memory shrinkers. Namely, some filesystems use freezable kernel threads that are inactive when the hibernate memory preallocation is carried out. Those same filesystems use memory shrinkers that may be triggered by the hibernate memory preallocation. If those memory shrinkers wait for the frozen kernel threads, the hibernate process deadlocks (this happens with XFS, for one example). Apparently, it is not technically viable to redesign the filesystems in question to avoid the situation described above, so the only possible solution of this issue is to defer the freezing of kernel threads until the hibernate memory preallocation is done, which is implemented by this change. Unfortunately, this requires the memory preallocation to be done before the "prepare" stage of device freeze, so after this change the only way drivers can allocate additional memory for their freeze routines in a clean way is to use PM notifiers.

PM / Hibernate: Add sysfs knob to control size of memory for drivers

2011-05-17T21:19:19Z

Martin reports that on his system hibernation occasionally fails due to the lack of memory, because the radeon driver apparently allocates too much of it during the device freeze stage. It turns out that the amount of memory allocated by radeon during hibernation (and presumably during system suspend too) depends on the utilization of the GPU (e.g. hibernating while there are two KDE 4 sessions with compositing enabled causes radeon to allocate more memory than for one KDE 4 session). In principle it should be possible to use image_size to make the memory preallocation mechanism free enough memory for the radeon driver, but in practice it is not easy to guess the right value because of the way the preallocation code uses image_size. For this reason, it seems reasonable to allow users to control the amount of memory reserved for driver allocations made after the hibernate preallocation, which currently is constant and amounts to 1 MB. Introduce a new sysfs file, /sys/power/reserved_size, whose value will be used as the amount of memory to reserve for the post-preallocation reservations made by device drivers, in bytes. For backwards compatibility, set its default (and initial) value to the currently used number (1 MB).
