This patch provides two new runtime PM helper functions which intend to
be used from system suspend/resume callbacks, to make sure devices are
put into low power state during system suspend and brought back to full
power at system resume.

The prerequisite is to have all levels of a device's runtime PM
callbacks to be defined through the SET_PM_RUNTIME_PM_OPS macro, which
means these are available for CONFIG_PM.

By using the new runtime PM helper functions especially the two
scenarios below will be addressed.

1) The PM core prevents .runtime_suspend callbacks from being invoked
during system suspend. That means even for a runtime PM centric
subsystem and driver, the device needs to be put into low power state
from a system suspend callback. Otherwise it may very well be left in
full power state (runtime resumed) while the system is suspended. By
using the new helper functions, we make sure to walk the hierarchy of
a device's power domain, subsystem and driver.

2) Subsystems and drivers need to cope with all the combinations of
CONFIG_PM_SLEEP and CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME. The two new helper functions
smothly addresses this.

Implement the per-device PM QoS constraints by creating a device
PM QoS API, which calls the PM QoS constraints management core code.

The per-device latency constraints data strctures are stored
in the device dev_pm_info struct.

The device PM code calls the init and destroy of the per-device constraints
data struct in order to support the dynamic insertion and removal of the
devices in the system.

To minimize the data usage by the per-device constraints, the data struct
is only allocated at the first call to dev_pm_qos_add_request.
The data is later free'd when the device is removed from the system.
A global mutex protects the constraints users from the data being
allocated and free'd.

Introduce common headers, helper functions and callbacks allowing
platforms to use simple generic power domains for runtime power
management.

Introduce struct generic_pm_domain to be used for representing
power domains that each contain a number of devices and may be
parent domains or subdomains with respect to other power domains.
Among other things, this structure includes callbacks to be
provided by platforms for performing specific tasks related to
power management (i.e. -&gt;stop_device() may disable a device's
clocks, while -&gt;start_device() may enable them, -&gt;power_off() is
supposed to remove power from the entire power domain
and -&gt;power_on() is supposed to restore it).

Introduce functions that can be used as power domain runtime PM
callbacks, pm_genpd_runtime_suspend() and pm_genpd_runtime_resume(),
as well as helper functions for the initialization of a power
domain represented by a struct generic_power_domain object,
adding a device to or removing a device from it and adding or
removing subdomains.

Introduce configuration option CONFIG_PM_GENERIC_DOMAINS to be
selected by the platforms that want to use the new code.

Now that we have CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG there is no need for yet
another flag causing dev_dbg() and pr_debug() statements in the
core PM code to produce output.  Moreover, CONFIG_PM_VERBOSE
causes so much output to be generated that it's not really useful
and almost no one sets it.

SoCs have a standard set of tuples consisting of frequency and
voltage pairs that the device will support per voltage domain. These
are called Operating Performance Points or OPPs. The actual
definitions of OPP varies over silicon versions. For a specific domain,
we can have a set of {frequency, voltage} pairs. As the kernel boots
and more information is available, a default set of these are activated
based on the precise nature of device. Further on operation, based on
conditions prevailing in the system (such as temperature), some OPP
availability may be temporarily controlled by the SoC frameworks.

To implement an OPP, some sort of power management support is necessary
hence this library depends on CONFIG_PM.

<title>PM: Make it possible to avoid races between wakeup and system sleep</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux-stable.git/commit/?id=c125e96f044427f38d106fab7bc5e4a5e6a18262'/>
<id>c125e96f044427f38d106fab7bc5e4a5e6a18262</id>
<content type='text'>
One of the arguments during the suspend blockers discussion was that
the mainline kernel didn't contain any mechanisms making it possible
to avoid races between wakeup and system suspend.

Generally, there are two problems in that area.  First, if a wakeup
event occurs exactly when /sys/power/state is being written to, it
may be delivered to user space right before the freezer kicks in, so
the user space consumer of the event may not be able to process it
before the system is suspended.  Second, if a wakeup event occurs
after user space has been frozen, it is not generally guaranteed that
the ongoing transition of the system into a sleep state will be
aborted.

To address these issues introduce a new global sysfs attribute,
/sys/power/wakeup_count, associated with a running counter of wakeup
events and three helper functions, pm_stay_awake(), pm_relax(), and
pm_wakeup_event(), that may be used by kernel subsystems to control
the behavior of this attribute and to request the PM core to abort
system transitions into a sleep state already in progress.

The /sys/power/wakeup_count file may be read from or written to by
user space.  Reads will always succeed (unless interrupted by a
signal) and return the current value of the wakeup events counter.
Writes, however, will only succeed if the written number is equal to
the current value of the wakeup events counter.  If a write is
successful, it will cause the kernel to save the current value of the
wakeup events counter and to abort the subsequent system transition
into a sleep state if any wakeup events are reported after the write
has returned.

[The assumption is that before writing to /sys/power/state user space
will first read from /sys/power/wakeup_count.  Next, user space
consumers of wakeup events will have a chance to acknowledge or
veto the upcoming system transition to a sleep state.  Finally, if
the transition is allowed to proceed, /sys/power/wakeup_count will
be written to and if that succeeds, /sys/power/state will be written
to as well.  Still, if any wakeup events are reported to the PM core
by kernel subsystems after that point, the transition will be
aborted.]

Additionally, put a wakeup events counter into struct dev_pm_info and
make these per-device wakeup event counters available via sysfs,
so that it's possible to check the activity of various wakeup event
sources within the kernel.

To illustrate how subsystems can use pm_wakeup_event(), make the
low-level PCI runtime PM wakeup-handling code use it.

One of the arguments during the suspend blockers discussion was that
the mainline kernel didn't contain any mechanisms making it possible
to avoid races between wakeup and system suspend.

Generally, there are two problems in that area.  First, if a wakeup
event occurs exactly when /sys/power/state is being written to, it
may be delivered to user space right before the freezer kicks in, so
the user space consumer of the event may not be able to process it
before the system is suspended.  Second, if a wakeup event occurs
after user space has been frozen, it is not generally guaranteed that
the ongoing transition of the system into a sleep state will be
aborted.

To address these issues introduce a new global sysfs attribute,
/sys/power/wakeup_count, associated with a running counter of wakeup
events and three helper functions, pm_stay_awake(), pm_relax(), and
pm_wakeup_event(), that may be used by kernel subsystems to control
the behavior of this attribute and to request the PM core to abort
system transitions into a sleep state already in progress.

The /sys/power/wakeup_count file may be read from or written to by
user space.  Reads will always succeed (unless interrupted by a
signal) and return the current value of the wakeup events counter.
Writes, however, will only succeed if the written number is equal to
the current value of the wakeup events counter.  If a write is
successful, it will cause the kernel to save the current value of the
wakeup events counter and to abort the subsequent system transition
into a sleep state if any wakeup events are reported after the write
has returned.

[The assumption is that before writing to /sys/power/state user space
will first read from /sys/power/wakeup_count.  Next, user space
consumers of wakeup events will have a chance to acknowledge or
veto the upcoming system transition to a sleep state.  Finally, if
the transition is allowed to proceed, /sys/power/wakeup_count will
be written to and if that succeeds, /sys/power/state will be written
to as well.  Still, if any wakeup events are reported to the PM core
by kernel subsystems after that point, the transition will be
aborted.]

Additionally, put a wakeup events counter into struct dev_pm_info and
make these per-device wakeup event counters available via sysfs,
so that it's possible to check the activity of various wakeup event
sources within the kernel.

To illustrate how subsystems can use pm_wakeup_event(), make the
low-level PCI runtime PM wakeup-handling code use it.
