The [un]lock_system_sleep() APIs were originally introduced to mutually
exclude memory hotplug and hibernation.Directly using mutex_lock(&pm_mutex) to achieve mutual exclusion with
suspend or hibernation code can lead to freezing failures. However, the
APIs [un]lock_system_sleep() can be safely used to achieve the same,
without causing freezing failures.So, since it would be beneficial to modify all the existing users of
mutex_lock(&pm_mutex) (in all parts of the kernel), so that they use these
safe APIs intead, make these APIs generic by removing the restriction that
they work only when CONFIG_HIBERNATE_CALLBACKS is set. Moreover, that
restriction didn't buy us anything anyway.Suggested-by: Tejun Heo

Now that freezer_count() and freezer_do_not_count() don't have the restriction
that they are effective only when called by userspace processes, use

The lock_system_sleep() function is used in the memory hotplug code at
several places in order to implement mutual exclusion with hibernation.
However, this function tries to acquire the 'pm_mutex' lock using
mutex_lock() and hence blocks in TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE state if it doesn't
get the lock. This would lead to task freezing failures and hence
hibernation failure as a consequence, even though the hibernation call path
successfully acquired the lock.But it is to be noted that, since this task tries to acquire pm_mutex, if it
blocks due to this, we are *100% sure* that this task is not going to run
as long as hibernation sequence is in progress, since hibernation releases
'pm_mutex' only at the very end, when everything is done.
And this means, this task is going to be anyway blocked for much more longer
than what the freezer intends to achieve; which means, freezing and thawing
doesn't really make any difference to this task!So, to fix freezing failures, we just ask the freezer to skip freezing this
task, since it is already "frozen enough".But instead of calling freezer_do_not_count() and freezer_count() as it is,
we use only the relevant parts of those functions, because restrictions
such as 'the task should be a userspace one' etc., might not be relevant in
this scenario.Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S. Bhat

the #if defined ugliness for the vt suspend support functions. Note that
CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE is already dependant on CONFIG_VT.The function pm_set_vt_switch is actually dependant on CONFIG_VT and not
CONFIG_PM_SLEEP. This fixes a compile error when CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is

Record S3 failure time about each reason and the latest two failed
devices' names in S3 progress.
We can check it through 'suspend_stats' entry in debugfs.The motivation of the patch:
We are enabling power features on Medfield. Comparing with PC/notebook,
a mobile enters/exits suspend-2-ram (we call it s3 on Medfield) far
more frequently. If it can't enter suspend-2-ram in time, the power
might be used up soon.We often find sometimes, a device suspend fails. Then, system retries
s3 over and over again. As display is off, testers and developers
don't know what happens.Some testers and developers complain they don't know if system
tries suspend-2-ram, and what device fails to suspend. They need
such info for a quick check. The patch adds suspend_stats under
debugfs for users to check suspend to RAM statistics quickly.If not using this patch, we have other methods to get info about
what device fails. One is to turn on CONFIG_PM_DEBUG, but users
would get too much info and testers need recompile the system.In addition, dynamic debug is another good tool to dump debug info.
But it still doesn't match our utilization scenario closely.
1) user need write a user space parser to process the syslog output;
2) Our testing scenario is we leave the mobile for at least hours.
Then, check its status. No serial console available during the
testing. One is because console would be suspended, and the other
is serial console connecting with spi or HSU devices would consume
power. These devices are powered off at suspend-2-ram.Signed-off-by: ShuoX Liu

A system or a device may need to control suspend/wakeup events. It may
want to wakeup the system after a predefined amount of time or at a
predefined event decided while entering suspend for polling or delayed
work. Then, it may want to enter suspend again if its predefined wakeup
condition is the only wakeup reason and there is no outstanding events;
thus, it does not wakeup the userspace unnecessary or unnecessary
devices and keeps suspended as long as possible (saving the power).Enabling a system to wakeup after a specified time can be easily
achieved by using RTC. However, to enter suspend again immediately
without invoking userland and unrelated devices, we need additional
features in the suspend framework.Such need comes from:
1. Monitoring a critical device status without interrupts that can
wakeup the system. (in-suspend polling)
An example is ambient temperature monitoring that needs to shut down
the system or a specific device function if it is too hot or cold. The
temperature of a specific device may be needed to be monitored as well;
e.g., a charger monitors battery temperature in order to stop charging
if overheated.2. Execute critical "delayed work" at suspend.
A driver or a system/board may have a delayed work (or any similar
things) that it wants to execute at the requested time.
For example, some chargers want to check the battery voltage some
time (e.g., 30 seconds) after the battery is fully charged and the
charger has stopped. Then, the charger restarts charging if the voltage
has dropped more than a threshold, which is smaller than "restart-charger"
voltage, which is a threshold to restart charging regardless of the
time passed.This patch allows to add "suspend_again" callback at struct
platform_suspend_ops and let the "suspend_again" callback return true if
the system is required to enter suspend again after the current instance
of wakeup. Device-wise suspend_again implemented at dev_pm_ops or
syscore is not done because: a) suspend_again feature is usually under
platform-wise decision and controls the behavior of the whole platform
and b) There are very limited devices related to the usage cases of
suspend_again; chargers and temperature sensors are mentioned so far.With suspend_again callback registered at struct platform_suspend_ops
suspend_ops in kernel/power/suspend.c with suspend_set_ops by the
platform, the suspend framework tries to enter suspend again by
looping suspend_enter() if suspend_again has returned true and there has
been no errors in the suspending sequence or pending wakeups (by
pm_wakeup_pending).Tested at Exynos4-NURI.

Xen save/restore is going to use hibernate device callbacks for
quiescing devices and putting them back to normal operations and it
would need to select CONFIG_HIBERNATION for this purpose. However,
that also would cause the hibernate interfaces for user space to be
enabled, which might confuse user space, because the Xen kernels
don't support hibernation. Moreover, it would be wasteful, as it
would make the Xen kernels include a substantial amount of code that
they would never use.To address this issue introduce new power management Kconfig option
CONFIG_HIBERNATE_CALLBACKS, such that it will only select the code
that is necessary for the hibernate device callbacks to work and make
CONFIG_HIBERNATION select it. Then, Xen save/restore will be able to
select CONFIG_HIBERNATE_CALLBACKS without dragging the entire
hibernate code along with it.Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

Introduce struct wakeup_source for representing system wakeup sources
within the kernel and for collecting statistics related to them.
Make the recently introduced helper functions pm_wakeup_event(),
pm_stay_awake() and pm_relax() use struct wakeup_source objects
internally, so that wakeup statistics associated with wakeup devices
can be collected and reported in a consistent way (the definition of
pm_relax() is changed, which is harmless, because this function is
not called directly by anyone yet). Introduce new wakeup-related
sysfs device attributes in /sys/devices/.../power for reporting the
device wakeup statistics.Change the global wakeup events counters event_count and
events_in_progress into atomic variables, so that it is not necessary
to acquire a global spinlock in pm_wakeup_event(), pm_stay_awake()
and pm_relax(), which should allow us to avoid lock contention in
these functions on SMP systems with many wakeup devices.Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

One of the arguments during the suspend blockers discussion was that
the mainline kernel didn't contain any mechanisms making it possible
to avoid races between wakeup and system suspend.Generally, there are two problems in that area. First, if a wakeup
event occurs exactly when /sys/power/state is being written to, it
may be delivered to user space right before the freezer kicks in, so
the user space consumer of the event may not be able to process it
before the system is suspended. Second, if a wakeup event occurs
after user space has been frozen, it is not generally guaranteed that
the ongoing transition of the system into a sleep state will be
aborted.To address these issues introduce a new global sysfs attribute,
/sys/power/wakeup_count, associated with a running counter of wakeup
events and three helper functions, pm_stay_awake(), pm_relax(), and
pm_wakeup_event(), that may be used by kernel subsystems to control
the behavior of this attribute and to request the PM core to abort
system transitions into a sleep state already in progress.The /sys/power/wakeup_count file may be read from or written to by
user space. Reads will always succeed (unless interrupted by a
signal) and return the current value of the wakeup events counter.
Writes, however, will only succeed if the written number is equal to
the current value of the wakeup events counter. If a write is
successful, it will cause the kernel to save the current value of the
wakeup events counter and to abort the subsequent system transition
into a sleep state if any wakeup events are reported after the write
has returned.[The assumption is that before writing to /sys/power/state user space
will first read from /sys/power/wakeup_count. Next, user space
consumers of wakeup events will have a chance to acknowledge or
veto the upcoming system transition to a sleep state. Finally, if
the transition is allowed to proceed, /sys/power/wakeup_count will
be written to and if that succeeds, /sys/power/state will be written
to as well. Still, if any wakeup events are reported to the PM core
by kernel subsystems after that point, the transition will be
aborted.]Additionally, put a wakeup events counter into struct dev_pm_info and
make these per-device wakeup event counters available via sysfs,
so that it's possible to check the activity of various wakeup event
sources within the kernel.To illustrate how subsystems can use pm_wakeup_event(), make the
low-level PCI runtime PM wakeup-handling code use it.Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

Allow memory hotplug and hibernation in the same kernel
Memory hotplug and hibernation were exclusive in Kconfig. This is
obviously a problem for distribution kernels who want to support both in
the same image.After some discussions with Rafael and others the only problem is with
parallel memory hotadd or removal while a hibernation operation is in
process. It was also working for s390 before.This patch removes the Kconfig level exclusion, and simply makes the
memory add / remove functions grab the pm_mutex to exclude against
hibernation.Fixes a regression - old kernels didn't exclude memory hotadd and

Commit 900af0d973856d6feb6fc088c2d0d3fde57707d3 (PM: Change suspend
code ordering) changed the ordering of suspend code in such a way
that the platform .prepare() callback is now executed after the
device drivers' late suspend callbacks have run. Unfortunately, this
turns out to break ARM platforms that need to talk via I2C to power
control devices during the .prepare() callback.For this reason introduce two new platform suspend callbacks,
.prepare_late() and .wake(), that will be called just prior to
disabling non-boot CPUs and right after bringing them back on line,
respectively, and use them instead of .prepare() and .finish() for
ACPI suspend. Make the PM core execute the .prepare() and .finish()
platform suspend callbacks where they were executed previously (that
is, right after calling the regular suspend methods provided by
device drivers and right before executing their regular resume
methods, respectively).It is not necessary to make analogous changes to the hibernation
code and data structures at the moment, because they are only used
by ACPI platforms.Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

This patch implements devices state save/restore before after kexec.
This patch together with features in kexec_jump patch can be used for
following:- A simple hibernation implementation without ACPI support. You can kexec a
hibernating kernel, save the memory image of original system and shutdown
the system. When resuming, you restore the memory image of original system
via ordinary kexec load then jump back.- Kernel/system debug through making system snapshot. You can make system
snapshot, jump back, do some thing and make another system snapshot.- Cooperative multi-kernel/system. With kexec jump, you can switch between
several kernels/systems quickly without boot process except the first time.
This appears like swap a whole kernel/system out/in.- A general method to call program in physical mode (paging turning
off). This can be used to invoke BIOS code under Linux.The following user-space tools can be used with kexec jump:
- kexec-tools needs to be patched to support kexec jump. The patches

kernel. An initramfs image built with "BuildRoot" can be downloaded
from the following URL:
initramfs image: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/initramfs/rootfs_cvs_kh10.gz
All user space tools above are included in the initramfs image.Usage example of simple hibernation:
1. Compile and install patched kernel with following options selected:
CONFIG_X86_32=y
CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y
CONFIG_KEXEC=y
CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=y
CONFIG_PM=y
CONFIG_HIBERNATION=y
CONFIG_KEXEC_JUMP=y2. Build an initramfs image contains kexec-tool and makedumpfile, or
download the pre-built initramfs image, called rootfs.gz in
following text.3. Prepare a partition to save memory image of original kernel, called
hibernating partition in following text.4. Boot kernel compiled in step 1 (kernel A).
5. In the kernel A, load kernel compiled in step 1 (kernel B) with
/sbin/kexec. The shell command line can be as follow:/sbin/kexec --load-preserve-context /boot/bzImage --mem-min=0x100000
--mem-max=0xffffff --initrd=rootfs.gz6. Boot the kernel B with following shell command line:
/sbin/kexec -e
7. The kernel B will boot as normal kexec. In kernel B the memory
image of kernel A can be saved into hibernating partition as
follow:jump_back_entry=`cat /proc/cmdline | tr ' ' '\n' | grep kexec_jump_back_entry | cut -d '='`
echo $jump_back_entry > kexec_jump_back_entry
cp /proc/vmcore dump.elfThen you can shutdown the machine as normal.
8. Boot kernel compiled in step 1 (kernel C). Use the rootfs.gz as
root file system.9. In kernel C, load the memory image of kernel A as follow:
/sbin/kexec -l --args-none --entry=`cat kexec_jump_back_entry` dump.elf
10. Jump back to the kernel A as follow:
/sbin/kexec -e
Then, kernel A is resumed.
Implementation point:
To support jumping between two kernels, before jumping to (executing)
the new kernel and jumping back to the original kernel, the devices
are put into quiescent state, and the state of devices and CPU is
saved. After jumping back from kexeced kernel and jumping to the new
kernel, the state of devices and CPU are restored accordingly. The
devices/CPU state save/restore code of software suspend is called to
implement corresponding function.Known issues:
- Because the segment number supported by sys_kexec_load is limited,
hibernation image with many segments may not be load. This is
planned to be eliminated by adding a new flag to sys_kexec_load to
make a image can be loaded with multiple sys_kexec_load invoking.Now, only the i386 architecture is supported.

ACPI PM: Add possibility to change suspend sequence
There are some systems out there that don't work correctly with
our current suspend/hibernation code ordering. Provide a workaround
for these systems allowing them to pass 'acpi_sleep=old_ordering' in
the kernel command line so that it will use the pre-ACPI 2.0 ("old")
suspend code ordering.Unfortunately, this requires us to add a platform hook to the
resuming of devices for recovering the platform in case one of the
device drivers' .suspend() routines returns error code. Namely,
ACPI 1.0 specifies that _PTS should be called before suspending
devices, but _WAK still should be called before resuming them in
order to undo the changes made by _PTS. However, if there is an
error during suspending devices, they are automatically resumed

called from within device_resume() in that cases.The patch also reorders and refactors the ACPI suspend/hibernation
code to avoid duplication as far as reasonably possible.Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

Prior to suspend, we allocate and switch to a new VT; after suspend, we switch
back to the original VT. This can be slow, and is completely unnecessary if
the framebuffer we're using can restore video properly.This adds a hook that allows drivers to select whether or not to do this vt
switch, and changes the gxfb driver to call this hook. It also adds a module
param to gxfb to allow controlling of the vt switch (defaulting to no switch).(Note: I'm not convinced that console_sem is the best way to protect this, but
we should probably have some form of locking..)[akpm@linux-foundation.org: build fix]

- Add comments explaing how drain_pages() works.
- Eliminate useless functions
- Rename drain_all_local_pages to drain_all_pages(). It does drain
all pages not only those of the local processor.- Eliminate useless interrupt off / on sequences. drain_pages()
disables interrupts on its own. The execution thread is
pinned to processor by the caller. So there is no need to
disable interrupts.- Put drain_all_pages() declaration in gfp.h and remove the
declarations from suspend.h and from mm/memory_hotplug.c- Make software suspend call drain_all_pages(). The draining
of processor local pages is may not the right approach if
software suspend wants to support SMP. If they call drain_all_pages
then we can make drain_pages() static.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix build]

Introduce global hibernation callback .end() and rename global
hibernation callback .start() to .begin(), in analogy with the
recent modifications of the global suspend callbacks.Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

On ACPI systems the target state set by acpi_pm_set_target() is
reset by acpi_pm_finish(), but that need not be called if the
suspend fails. All platforms that use the .set_target() global
suspend callback are affected by analogous issues.For this reason, we need an additional global suspend callback that
will reset the target state regardless of whether or not the suspend
is successful. Also, it is reasonable to rename the .set_target()
callback, since it will be used for a different purpose on ACPI
systems (due to ACPI 1.0x code ordering requirements).Introduce the global suspend callback .end() to be executed at the
end of the suspend sequence and rename the .set_target() global
suspend callback to .begin().Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

This patch (as1008b) converts the PM notifier routines from inline
calls to out-of-line code. It also prevents pm_chain_head from
being created when CONFIG_PM_SLEEP isn't enabled, and EXPORTs the
notifier registration and unregistration routines.Signed-off-by: Alan Stern

The following scenario leads to total confusion of the platform firmware on
some boxes (eg. HPC nx6325):
* Hibernate with ACPI enabled
* Resume passing "acpi=off" to the boot kernelTo prevent this from happening it's necessary to check if ACPI is enabled (and
enable it if that's not the case) _right_ _after_ control has been transfered
from the boot kernel to the image kernel, before device_power_up() is called
(ie. with interrupts disabled). Enabling ACPI after calling
device_power_up() turns out to be insufficient.For this reason, introduce new hibernation callback ->leave() that will be
executed before device_power_up() by the restored image kernel. To make it
work, it also is necessary to move swsusp_suspend() from swsusp.c to disk.c
(it's name is changed to "create_image", which is more up to the point).Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

During hibernation we also need to tell the ACPI core that we're going to put
the system into the S4 sleep state. For this reason, an additional method in
'struct hibernation_ops' is needed, playing the role of set_target() in
'struct platform_suspend_operations'. Moreover, the role of the .prepare()
method is now different, so it's better to introduce another method, that in
general may be different from .prepare(), that will be used to prepare the
platform for creating the hibernation image (.prepare() is used anyway to
notify the platform that we're going to enter the low power state after the
image has been saved).Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki
