Hey, with commit 8f2f748b0656, suspend/resume works perfectly for me! I ran it
multiple times just to make sure, and everything worked just great.

Apart from that, I even tried suspend/resume after building the kernel with
and without CONFIG_CPUSETS. Both cases worked perfectly.

So, I am really surprised at what you stated above. Are you *really* sure you
are facing suspend hangs *because* of the above commit?

And AFAICS hardware doesn't matter for the code in question, but in any case,
the laptop on which I tested it is:
Thinkpad T420 (Intel core i5-2540M), 2 cores * HT (total 4 logical cpus).

Also, the patch you posted here doesn't make much sense.. nor does it give a
clue as to what might be wrong at your end (if anything is really wrong, that
is). Do you have CONFIG_CPUSETS set or unset? Could you share your .config?

Coming to your patch, assuming you have CONFIG_CPUSETS enabled, then,
calling rebuild_sched_domains() at that point is useless because the cpusets
weren't changed at all. So generate_sched_domains() would generate the same
sched domain partitions that is already there.. And hence
partition_sched_domains() would essentially do nothing.. no sched domain is
destroyed, and no new domains are created.

However, if CONFIG_CPUSETS is unset, then, before commit 8f2f748b0656,
partition_sched_domains(1, NULL, NULL) would have been invoked, thus rebuilding
a single sched domain. And that is why I specifically also tested commit
8f2f748b0656 with CONFIG_CPUSETS unset - and that also worked fine (as I
mentioned above).

So could you please check again?

By the way, you can use the pm-test framework (see Documentation/power/basic-
pm-debugging.txt) to pin-point which stage is causing the hang.
Specifically, the stage where CPU hotplug is done is 'processors'.

So you should probably try out this level:
# echo processors > /sys/power/pm_test
# echo mem > /sys/power/state

Replacing processors with core enables even deeper level suspend testing.
