SubjectRe: Async suspend-resume patch w/ rwsems (was: Re: [GIT PULL] PM updates for 2.6.33)

I can't imagine why not. And wouldn't lockdep get confused by the fact
that in the async case, the rwsems are released by a different process
from the one that acquired them?

Should we have an attribute under /sys/power to disable async
suspend/resume? It would make testing easier and give people a way to
work around problems.

Do you want to use async tasks in the late-suspend/early-resume stages?
I know that USB won't use it, not even for the PCI host controllers --
not unless the PCI core specifically wants it. Doing just the regular
suspend/resume stages may be enough.

If the sysfs attribute exists, then maybe we _should_ allow async with
PM tracing enabled. I don't know; it's your decision.

atomic_set(&async_error, error);
}

What's that for? dev->power.status is supposed to be DPM_SUSPENDING
until the suspend method is successfully completed.

And then this isn't needed.

This line has to be moved into __device_suspend(), even though it won't
be protected by dpm_list_mtx. The same sort of thing applies to
dpm_suspend_noirq() (although nothing needs to be moved if you don't
make it async).

The rest looks okay.

How about exporting a wait_for_device_to_resume() routine? Drivers
could call it for non-tree resume constraints:

void wait_for_device_to_resume(struct device *other)
{
down_read(&other->power.rwsem);
up_read(&other->power.rwsem);
}

Unfortunately there is no equivalent for non-tree suspend constraints.
