Subject: [patch] suspend/resume debugging: device filter
From: Ingo Molnar <[email protected]>
this patch implements the /sys/power/filter attribute, which takes a
string. If a device's name matches the filter string (exactly), then
that device is excluded from suspend/resume.
this can be helpful in a number of ways when debugging suspend and
resume problems:
- if CONFIG_DISABLE_CONSOLE_SUSPEND is used then the serial
console is still suspended after which point there's no
log output. Doing "echo serial > /sys/power/filter" keeps
the serial port active, so any messages (and crash info)
after that point is displayed.
- if a device is suspected to be the reason of resume failure
then it can be excluded via the filter. That device obviously
wont work, but users can thus help us debug resume problems
in combination with pm_trace, without having to hack the kernel.
(note that you can obvious break suspend/resume via the filter, by
excluding a vital device - so it is only to be used when suspend or
resume is broken to begin with.)
it might be better to do this centrally in sysfs, via a per-device
attribute, to individually enable suspend and resume on a per device
basis, but my sysfs-fu is not strong enough for that now ;-)
