  • PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE state is a general state that
    does not need any platform specific support, it equals
    frozen processes + suspended devices + idle processors.

    Compared with PM_SUSPEND_MEMORY,
    PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE saves less power
    because the system is still in a running state.
    PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE has less resume latency because it does not
    touch BIOS, and the processors are in idle state.

    Compared with RTPM/idle,
    PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE saves more power as
    1. the processor has longer sleep time because processes are frozen.
    The deeper c-state the processor supports, more power saving we can get.
    2. PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE uses system suspend code path, thus we can get
    more power saving from the devices that does not have good RTPM support.

    This state is useful for
    1) platforms that do not have STR, or have a broken STR.
    2) platforms that have an extremely low power idle state,
    which can be used to replace STR.

    The following describes how PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE state works.
    1. echo freeze > /sys/power/state
    2. the processes are frozen.
    3. all the devices are suspended.
    4. all the processors are blocked by a wait queue
    5. all the processors idles and enters (Deep) c-state.
    6. an interrupt fires.
    7. a processor is woken up and handles the irq.
    8. if it is a general event,
    a) the irq handler runs and quites.
    b) goto step 4.
    9. if it is a real wake event, say, power button pressing, keyboard touch, mouse moving,
    a) the irq handler runs and activate the wakeup source
    b) wakeup_source_activate() notifies the wait queue.
    c) system starts resuming from PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE
    10. all the devices are resumed.
    11. all the processes are unfrozen.
    12. system is back to working.

    Known Issue:
    The wakeup of this new PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE state may behave differently
    from the previous suspend state.
    Take ACPI platform for example, there are some GPEs that only enabled
    when the system is in sleep state, to wake the system backk from S3/S4.
    But we are not touching these GPEs during transition to PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE.
    This means we may lose some wake event.
    But on the other hand, as we do not disable all the Interrupts during
    PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE, we may get some extra "wakeup" Interrupts, that are
    not available for S3/S4.

    The patches has been tested on an old Sony laptop, and here are the results:

    Average Power:
    1. RPTM/idle for half an hour:
    14.8W, 12.6W, 14.1W, 12.5W, 14.4W, 13.2W, 12.9W
    2. Freeze for half an hour:
    11W, 10.4W, 9.4W, 11.3W 10.5W
    3. RTPM/idle for three hours:
    11.6W
    4. Freeze for three hours:
    10W
    5. Suspend to Memory:
    0.5~0.9W

    Average Resume Latency:
    1. RTPM/idle with a black screen: (From pressing keyboard to screen back)
    Less than 0.2s
    2. Freeze: (From pressing power button to screen back)
    2.50s
    3. Suspend to Memory: (From pressing power button to screen back)
    4.33s

    >From the results, we can see that all the platforms should benefit from
    this patch, even if it does not have Low Power S0.

  • This boolean function simply returns whether or not the runtime
    status of the device is 'active'. The typical scenario is driver

  • The text in Documentation said it would be removed in 2.6.41;
    the text in the Kconfig said removal in the 3.1 release. Either
    way you look at it, we are well past both, so push it off a cliff.

    Note that the POWER_CSTATE and the POWER_PSTATE are part of the
    legacy tracing API. Remove all tracepoints which use these flags.
    As can be seen from context, most already have a trace entry via
    trace_cpu_idle anyways.

    Also, the cpufreq/cpufreq.c PSTATE one is actually unpaired, as
    compared to the CSTATE ones which all have a clear start/stop.
    As part of this, the trace_power_frequency also becomes orphaned,
    so it too is deleted.

  • btrfs_start_delalloc_inodes() locks the delalloc_inodes list, fetches the
    first inode, unlocks the list, triggers btrfs_alloc_delalloc_work/
    btrfs_queue_worker for this inode, and then it locks the list, checks the
    head of the list again. But because we don't delete the first inode that it
    deals with before, it will fetch the same inode. As a result, this function
    allocates a huge amount of btrfs_delalloc_work structures, and OOM happens.

    Fix this problem by splice this delalloc list.

  • First, though the current transaction->aborted check can stop the commit early
    and avoid unnecessary operations, it is too early, and some transaction handles
    don't end, those handles may set transaction->aborted after the check.

    Second, when we commit the transaction, we will wake up some worker threads to
    flush the space cache and inode cache. Those threads also allocate some transaction
    handles and may set transaction->aborted if some serious error happens.

    So we need more check for ->aborted when committing the transaction. Fix it.

  • I noticed a WARN_ON going off when adding csums because we were going over

    extent. This is a leftover from when we used to hold the csums privately
    for direct io, but now we use the normal ordered sum stuff so we need to
    make sure and check if we've moved on to another extent so that the csums
    are added to the right extent. Without this we could end up with csums for
    bytenrs that don't have extents to cover them yet. Thanks,

  • A user reported a BUG_ON(ret) that occured during tree log replay. Ret was
    -EAGAIN, so what I think happened is that we removed an extent that covered
    a bitmap entry and an extent entry. We remove the part from the bitmap and
    return -EAGAIN and then search for the next piece we want to remove, which
    happens to be an entire extent entry, so we just free the sucker and return.
    The problem is ret is still set to -EAGAIN so we trip the BUG_ON(). The
    user used btrfs-zero-log so I'm not 100% sure this is what happened so I've
    added a WARN_ON() to catch the other possibility. Thanks,

  • We drop the extent map tree lock while we're logging extents, so somebody
    could come in and merge another extent into this one and screw up our
    logging, or they could even remove us from the list which would keep us from
    logging the extent or freeing our ref on it, so we need to make sure to not
    clear LOGGING until after the extent is logged, and then we can merge it to
    adjacent extents. Thanks,

  • This patch (as1643b) fixes a build error in ehci-hcd when compiling for
    ARM with allmodconfig:

    drivers/usb/host/ehci-hcd.c:1285:0: warning: "PLATFORM_DRIVER" redefined [enabled by default]
    drivers/usb/host/ehci-hcd.c:1255:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition
    drivers/usb/host/ehci-mxc.c:280:31: warning: 'ehci_mxc_driver' defined but not used [-Wunused-variable]
    drivers/usb/host/ehci-hcd.c:1285:0: warning: "PLATFORM_DRIVER" redefined [enabled by default]
    drivers/usb/host/ehci-hcd.c:1255:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition

    The fix is to convert ehci-mxc over to the new "ehci-hcd is a library"
    scheme so that it can coexist peacefully with the ehci-platform
    driver. As part of the conversion the ehci_mxc_priv data structure,
    which was allocated dynamically, is now placed where it belongs: in
    the private area at the end of struct ehci_hcd.
