385 | 6. Run-time PM and System Sleep | ||
386 | |||
387 | Run-time PM and system sleep (i.e., system suspend and hibernation, also known | ||
388 | as suspend-to-RAM and suspend-to-disk) interact with each other in a couple of | ||
389 | ways. If a device is active when a system sleep starts, everything is | ||
390 | straightforward. But what should happen if the device is already suspended? | ||
391 | |||
392 | The device may have different wake-up settings for run-time PM and system sleep. | ||
393 | For example, remote wake-up may be enabled for run-time suspend but disallowed | ||
394 | for system sleep (device_may_wakeup(dev) returns 'false'). When this happens, | ||
395 | the subsystem-level system suspend callback is responsible for changing the | ||
396 | device's wake-up setting (it may leave that to the device driver's system | ||
397 | suspend routine). It may be necessary to resume the device and suspend it again | ||
398 | in order to do so. The same is true if the driver uses different power levels | ||
399 | or other settings for run-time suspend and system sleep. | ||
400 | |||
401 | During system resume, devices generally should be brought back to full power, | ||
402 | even if they were suspended before the system sleep began. There are several | ||
403 | reasons for this, including: | ||
404 | |||
405 | * The device might need to switch power levels, wake-up settings, etc. | ||
406 | |||
407 | * Remote wake-up events might have been lost by the firmware. | ||
408 | |||
409 | * The device's children may need the device to be at full power in order | ||
410 | to resume themselves. | ||
411 | |||
412 | * The driver's idea of the device state may not agree with the device's | ||
413 | physical state. This can happen during resume from hibernation. | ||
414 | |||
415 | * The device might need to be reset. | ||
416 | |||
417 | * Even though the device was suspended, if its usage counter was > 0 then most | ||
418 | likely it would need a run-time resume in the near future anyway. | ||
419 | |||
420 | * Always going back to full power is simplest. | ||
421 | |||
422 | If the device was suspended before the sleep began, then its run-time PM status | ||
423 | will have to be updated to reflect the actual post-system sleep status. The way | ||
424 | to do this is: | ||
425 | |||
426 | pm_runtime_disable(dev); | ||
427 | pm_runtime_set_active(dev); | ||
428 | pm_runtime_enable(dev); | ||
429 | |||
430 | The PM core always increments the run-time usage counter before calling the | ||
431 | ->prepare() callback and decrements it after calling the ->complete() callback. | ||
432 | Hence disabling run-time PM temporarily like this will not cause any run-time | ||
433 | suspend callbacks to be lost. | ||
