2007-10-20typo fixesMatt LaPlante1-1/+1
Most of these fixes were already submitted for old kernel versions, and were approved, but for some reason they never made it into the releases. Because this is a consolidation of a couple old missed patches, it touches both Kconfigs and documentation texts.

2007-10-18serial: turn serial console suspend a boot rather than compile time optionAndres Salomon1-2/+2
Currently, there's a CONFIG_DISABLE_CONSOLE_SUSPEND that allows one to stop the serial console from being suspended when the rest of the machine goes to sleep. This is incredibly useful for debugging power management-related things; however, having it as a compile-time option has proved to be incredibly inconvenient for us (OLPC). There are plenty of times that we want serial console to not suspend, but for the most part we'd like serial console to be suspended. This drops CONFIG_DISABLE_CONSOLE_SUSPEND, and replaces it with a kernel boot parameter (no_console_suspend). By default, the serial console will be suspended along with the rest of the system; by passing 'no_console_suspend' to the kernel during boot, serial console will remain alive during suspend. For now, this is pretty serial console specific; further fixes could be applied to make this work for things like netconsole. Signed-off-by: Andres Salomon <dilinger@debian.org> Acked-by: "Rafael J.

2007-10-18freezer: do not send signals to kernel threadsRafael J. Wysocki1-12/+19
The freezer should not send signals to kernel threads, since that may lead to subtle problems. In particular, commit b74d0deb968e1f85942f17080eace015ce3c332c has changed recalc_sigpending_tsk() so that it doesn't clear TIF_SIGPENDING. For this reason, if the freezer continues to send fake signals to kernel threads and the freezing of kernel threads fails, some of them may be running with TIF_SIGPENDING set forever. Accordingly, recalc_sigpending_tsk() shouldn't set the task's TIF_SIGPENDING flag if TIF_FREEZE is set. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2007-10-18freezer: document relationship with memory shrinkingRafael J. Wysocki1-2/+11

2007-10-18PM: Rename struct pm_ops and related thingsRafael J. Wysocki1-1/+1
The name of 'struct pm_ops' suggests that it is related to the power management in general, but in fact it is only related to suspend.  Moreover, its name should indicate what this structure is used for, so it seems reasonable to change it to 'struct platform_suspend_ops'.  In that case, the name of the global variable of this type used by the PM core and the names of related functions should be changed accordingly.

2007-07-17Freezer: make kernel threads nonfreezable by defaultRafael J. Wysocki3-54/+164
Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves. This approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't care for the freezing of tasks at all. It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is done in this patch. The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie. to have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable() function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to unset PF_NOFREEZE. It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional) change of behaviour to appear. Additionally, it updates documentation to describe the freezing of tasks more accurately. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: build fixes] Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2007-07-12USB: add USB-Persist facilityAlan Stern1-0/+3
This patch (as886) adds the controversial USB-persist facility, allowing USB devices to persist across a power loss during system suspend. The facility is controlled by a new Kconfig option (with appropriate warnings about the potential dangers); when the option is off the behavior will remain the same as it is now. But when the option is on, people will be able to use suspend-to-disk and keep their USB filesystems intact -- something particularly valuable for small machines where the root filesystem is on a USB device!

2006-03-23[PATCH] swsusp: userland interfaceRafael J. Wysocki1-0/+149
This patch introduces a user space interface for swsusp. The interface is based on a special character device, called the snapshot device, that allows user space processes to perform suspend and resume-related operations with the help of some ioctls and the read()/write() functions.  Additionally it allows these processes to allocate free swap pages from a selected swap partition, called the resume partition, so that they know which sectors of the resume partition are available to them. The interface uses the same low-level system memory snapshot-handling functions that are used by the built-it swap-writing/reading code of swsusp. The interface documentation is included in the patch. The patch assumes that the major and minor numbers of the snapshot device will be 10 (ie. misc device) and 231, the registration of which has already been requested. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
