* PM / Runtime: Reduce code duplication in core helper functionsRafael J. Wysocki2010-10-171-68/+54
| | | | | | | | | Reduce code duplication in rpm_idle(), rpm_suspend() and rpm_resume() by using local pointers to store callback addresses and moving some duplicated code into a separate function. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl> Reviewed-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu>
* PM: Allow wakeup events to abort freezing of tasksRafael J. Wysocki2010-10-172-2/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | If there is a wakeup event during the freezing of tasks, suspend or hibernation will fail anyway. Since try_to_freeze_tasks() can take up to 20 seconds to complete or fail, aborting it as soon as a wakeup event is detected improves the worst case wakeup latency. Based on a patch from Arve Hjønnevåg. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl> Acked-by: Pavel Machek <pavel@ucw.cz>

* PM / Hibernate: Make some boot messages look less scaryRafael J. Wysocki2010-10-172-8/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | The hibernate resume code checks if there is an image to resume from on every boot and, if the kernel is built with CONFIG_PM_DEBUG set and the image is not present, it prints some scary messages suggesting there was a boot error of some sort. Apparently, some users are confused by them, so make them look less scary and adjust the other hibernate resume debug messages to match them. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
* PM / Runtime: Implement autosuspend supportAlan Stern2010-10-176-14/+473
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch (as1427) implements the "autosuspend" facility for runtime PM. 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. The details are all explained in Documentation/power/runtime_pm.txt and Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-power. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

* PM / Runtime: Add no_callbacks flagAlan Stern2010-10-176-8/+149
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* PM / Runtime: Combine runtime PM entry pointsAlan Stern2010-10-172-130/+110
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch (as1424) combines the various public entry points for the runtime PM routines into three simple functions: one for idle, one for suspend, and one for resume. A new bitflag specifies whether or not to increment or decrement the usage_count field. The new entry points are named __pm_runtime_idle, __pm_runtime_suspend, and __pm_runtime_resume, to reflect that they are trampolines. Simultaneously, the corresponding internal routines are renamed to rpm_idle, rpm_suspend, and rpm_resume. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

* PM / Runtime: Merge synchronous and async runtime routinesAlan Stern2010-10-171-235/+140
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch (as1423) merges the asynchronous routines __pm_request_idle(), __pm_request_suspend(), and __pm_request_resume() with their synchronous counterparts. The RPM_ASYNC bitflag argument serves to indicate what sort of operation to perform. In the course of performing this merger, it became apparent that the various functions don't all behave consistenly with regard to error reporting and cancellation of outstanding requests. A new routine, rpm_check_suspend_allowed(), was written to centralize much of the testing, and the other functions were revised to follow a simple algorithm: If the operation is disallowed because of the device's settings or current state, return an error. Cancel pending or scheduled requests of lower priority. Schedule, queue, or perform the desired operation. A few special cases and exceptions are noted in comments.

* PM / Runtime: Replace boolean arguments with bitflagsAlan Stern2010-10-172-44/+54
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The "from_wq" argument in __pm_runtime_suspend() and __pm_runtime_resume() supposedly indicates whether or not the function was called by the PM workqueue thread, but in fact it isn't always used this way. It really indicates whether or not the function should return early if the requested operation is already in progress. Along with this badly-named boolean argument, later patches in this series will add several other boolean arguments to these functions and others. Therefore this patch (as1422) begins the conversion process by replacing from_wq with a bitflag argument. The same bitflags are also used in __pm_runtime_get() and __pm_runtime_put(), where they indicate whether or not the operation should be asynchronous.

* PM: Fix potential issue with failing asynchronous suspendRafael J. Wysocki2010-10-172-8/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a potential issue with the asynchronous suspend code that a device driver suspending asynchronously may not notice that it should back off. There are two failing scenarions, (1) when the driver is waiting for a driver suspending synchronously to complete and that second driver returns error code, in which case async_error won't be set and the waiting driver will continue suspending and (2) after the driver has called device_pm_wait_for_dev() and the waited for driver returns error code, in which case the caller of device_pm_wait_for_dev() will not know that there was an error and will continue suspending. To fix this issue make __device_suspend() set async_error, so async_suspend() doesn't need to set it any more, and make device_pm_wait_for_dev() return async_error, so that its callers can check whether or not they should continue suspending. No more changes are necessary, since device_pm_wait_for_dev() is not used by any drivers' suspend routines. Reported-by: Colin Cross <ccross@android.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

* PM / Wakeup: Introduce wakeup source objects and event statistics (v3)Rafael J. Wysocki2010-10-1710-125/+756
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

On IO completion, devices on the restart list are scanned and IO issuing is restarted. ubd issues IOs sg-by-sg and issuing can be stopped in the middle of a request, so each device on the restart queue needs to remember where to restart in its current request. ubd needs to keep track of the issue position itself because, * blk_rq_pos(req) is now updated by the block layer to keep track of _completion_ position. * Multiple io_req's for the current request may be in flight, so it's difficult to tell where blk_rq_pos(req) currently is. Add ubd->rq_pos to keep track of the issue position and use it to correctly restart io_req issue.

Rather than add yet another include (<asm/unistd.h>) to make everything happy, just uninline the silly core dump helper functions and move the bodies to fs/exec.c where they make a lot more sense. dump_seek() in particular was too big to be an inline function anyway, and none of them are in any way performance-critical. And we really don't need to mess up our include file headers more than they already are.

This switch does not present the usual register interface of a PHY, it presents nothing. So a PHY scan will find nothing - it finds ID's of 0 for each PHY on the attached MII bus. After the FEC driver was changed to use phylib for supporting PHYs it no longer works on this particular board/switch setup. Add code support to use a fixed phy if no PHY is found on the MII bus. This is based on the way the cpmac.c driver solved this same problem. Signed-off-by: Greg Ungerer <gerg@uclinux.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Use an "unsigned long" instead to shrink "struct tg3" by 176 bytes, and report this value to stats readers. Increment rx_dropped counter for oversized frames.

Some interfaces appear safe (eeprom, etc), in that the sizes are well controlled. In some situations (e.g. unchecked error conditions), the heap will remain unchanged in areas before copying back to userspace. Note that these are less of an issue since these all require CAP_NET_ADMIN.
