<title>PM: Introduce PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE callback state</title>

<content type='text'>
During the last step of hibernation in the "platform" mode (with the
help of ACPI) we use the suspend code, including the devices'
-&gt;suspend() methods, to prepare the system for entering the ACPI S4
system sleep state.

But at least for some devices the operations performed by the
-&gt;suspend() callback in that case must be different from its operations
during regular suspend.

For this reason, introduce the new PM event type PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE and
pass it to the device drivers' -&gt;suspend() methods during the last phase
of hibernation, so that they can distinguish this case and handle it as
appropriate.  Modify the drivers that handle PM_EVENT_SUSPEND in a
special way and need to handle PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE in the same way.

These changes are necessary to fix a hibernation regression related
to the i915 driver (ref. http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/22/488).

The /sys/devices/.../power/state files have been gone for a while
now, but I just noticed some documentation that still refers to
them.  (Fortunately described as DEPRECATED and WILL REMOVE).

Time to remove that obsolete documentation too ...

<id>eb57c1cf059630454b40fb8bb124e3f318d241f8</id>
<content type='text'>
Modify the hibernation userland interface by adding two new ioctls to it,
SNAPSHOT_PLATFORM_SUPPORT and SNAPSHOT_POWER_OFF, that can be used,
respectively, to switch the hibernation platform support on/off and to make the
kernel transition the system to the hibernation state (eg. ACPI S4) using the
platform (eg. ACPI) driver.

These ioctls are intended to replace the misdesigned SNAPSHOT_PMOPS ioctl,
which from now is regarded as obsolete and will be removed in the future.
