2009-03-31proc 1/2: do PDE usecounting even for ->read_proc, ->write_procAlexey Dobriyan3-11/+40
struct proc_dir_entry::owner is going to be removed. Now it's only necessary to protect PDEs which are using ->read_proc, ->write_proc hooks. However, ->owner assignments are racy and make it very easy for someone to switch ->owner on live PDE (as some subsystems do) without fixing refcounts and so on. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12454 So, ->owner is on death row. Proxy file operations exist already (proc_file_operations), just bump usecount when necessary. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com>

If the device is not supposed to wake up the system, ie. when device_may_wakeup(&dev->dev) returns 'false', pci_prepare_to_sleep() should pass 'false' to pci_enable_wake() so that it calls the platform to disable the wake-up capability of the device.

2009-03-30PCI PM: Introduce __pci_[start|complete]_power_transition() (rev. 2)Rafael J. Wysocki2-18/+52
The radeonfb driver needs to program the device's PMCSR directly due to some quirky hardware it has to handle (see http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12846 for details) and after doing that it needs to call the platform (usually ACPI) to finish the power transition of the device. Currently it uses pci_set_power_state() for this purpose, however making a specific assumption about the internal behavior of this function, which has changed recently so that this assumption is no longer satisfied. For this reason, introduce __pci_complete_power_transition() that may be called by the radeonfb driver to complete the power transition of the device. For symmetry, introduce __pci_start_power_transition(). Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl> Acked-by: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org>
2009-03-30PCI PM: Restore config spaces of all devices during early resumeRafael J. Wysocki1-7/+9
At present the configuration spaces of PCI devices that have no drivers or no PM support in the drivers (either legacy or through a pm object) are not saved during suspend and, consequently, they are not restored during resume. This generally may lead to the state of the system being slightly inconsistent after the resume, so it's better to save and restore the configuration spaces of these devices as well.

2009-03-30PCI PM: Make pci_set_power_state() handle devices with no PM supportRafael J. Wysocki1-6/+12
There is a problem with PCI devices without any PM support (either native or through the platform) that pci_set_power_state() always returns error code for them, even if they are being put into D0. However, such devices are always in D0, so pci_set_power_state() should return success when attempting to put such a device into D0. It also should update the current_state field for these devices as appropriate. This modification is necessary so that the standard configuration registers of these devices are successfully restored by pci_restore_standard_config() during the "early" phase of resume. In addition, pci_set_power_state() should check the value of current_state before calling the platform to change the power state of the device to avoid doing that unnecessarily.

2009-03-30PCI PM: Put devices into low power states during late suspend (rev. 2)Rafael J. Wysocki1-53/+81
Once we have allowed timer interrupts to be enabled during the late phase of suspending devices, we are now able to use the generic pci_set_power_state() to put PCI devices into low power states at that time. We can also use some related platform callbacks, like the ones preparing devices for wake-up, during the late suspend. Doing this will allow us to avoid the race condition where a device using shared interrupts is put into a low power state with interrupts enabled and then an interrupt (for another device) comes in and confuses its driver. At the same time, devices that don't support the native PCI PM or that require some additional, platform-specific operations to be carried out to put them into low power states will be handled as appropriate.

Once we have allowed timer interrupts to be enabled during the early phase of resuming devices, we are now able to use the generic pci_set_power_state() to put PCI devices into D0 at that time. Then, the platform-specific PM code will have a chance to handle devices that don't implement the native PCI PM or that require some additional, platform-specific operations to be carried out to power them up. Also, by doing this we can simplify the code quite a bit. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl> Acked-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Acked-by: Jesse Barnes <jbarnes@virtuousgeek.org>

This change (along with the previous analogous change of the suspend core code) will allow us to rework the PCI PM core so that the power state of devices is changed in the "late" phase of suspend (and analogously in the "early" phase of resume), which in turn will allow us to avoid the race condition where a device using shared interrupts is put into a low power state with interrupts enabled and then an interrupt (for another device) comes in and confuses its driver.

Use the functions introduced in by the previous patch, suspend_device_irqs(), resume_device_irqs() and check_wakeup_irqs(), to rework the handling of interrupts during suspend (hibernation) and resume. Namely, interrupts will only be disabled on the CPU right before suspending sysdevs, while device drivers will be prevented from receiving interrupts, with the help of the new helper function, before their "late" suspend callbacks run (and analogously during resume). In addition, since the device interrups are now disabled before the CPU has turned all interrupts off and the CPU will ACK the interrupts setting the IRQ_PENDING bit for them, check in sysdev_suspend() if any wake-up interrupts are pending and abort suspend if that's the case.

2009-03-30PM: Introduce functions for suspending and resuming device interruptsRafael J. Wysocki6-7/+116
Introduce helper functions allowing us to prevent device drivers from getting any interrupts (without disabling interrupts on the CPU) during suspend (or hibernation) and to make them start to receive interrupts again during the subsequent resume. These functions make it possible to keep timer interrupts enabled while the "late" suspend and "early" resume callbacks provided by device drivers are being executed. In turn, this allows device drivers' "late" suspend and "early" resume callbacks to sleep, execute ACPI callbacks etc. The functions introduced here will be used to rework the handling of interrupts during suspend (hibernation) and resume. Namely, interrupts will only be disabled on the CPU right before suspending sysdevs, while device drivers will be prevented from receiving interrupts, with the help of the new helper function, before their "late" suspend callbacks run (and analogously during resume).

2009-03-30reiserfs: use generic readdir for operations across all xattrsJeff Mahoney3-300/+131
The current reiserfs xattr implementation open codes reiserfs_readdir and frees the path before calling the filldir function. Typically, the filldir function is something that modifies the file system, such as a chown or an inode deletion that also require reading of an inode associated with each direntry. Since the file system is modified, the path retained becomes invalid for the next run. In addition, it runs backwards in attempt to minimize activity. This is clearly suboptimal from a code cleanliness perspective as well as performance-wise. This patch implements a generic reiserfs_for_each_xattr that uses the generic readdir and a specific filldir routine that simply populates an array of dentries and then performs a specific operation on them. When all files have been operated on, it then calls the operation on the directory itself. The result is a noticable code reduction and better performance.

2009-03-30reiserfs: journaled xattrsJeff Mahoney7-49/+159
Deadlocks are possible in the xattr code between the journal lock and the xattr sems. This patch implements journalling for xattr operations. The benefit is twofold: * It gets rid of the deadlock possibility by always ensuring that xattr write operations are initiated inside a transaction. * It corrects the problem where xattr backing files aren't considered any differently than normal files, despite the fact they are metadata. I discussed the added journal load with Chris Mason, and we decided that since xattrs (versus other journal activity) is fairly rare, the introduction of larger transactions to support journaled xattrs wouldn't be too big a deal.

Christoph Hellwig had asked me quite some time ago to port the reiserfs xattrs to the generic xattr interface.
