Sorry, but no. Suspend and resume is already slow enough, no need to make
both of them much slower.
If we can condition this on the netconsole being used, ok, but not for the
most common case of "console is on plain VGA".
Hm, it already is in -mm, but of course I can prepare a patch that removes
this ssleep().
Pavel, what do you think?
Well, in suspend-to-ram case, 2 seconds is quite a lot... like more
than rest of suspend, so stefan has some point...
Rafael added this "ssleep 2" because of a bug I reported on LKML,
see the thread "2.6.18-rc4-mm1: eth0: trigger_send() called with
the transmitter busy"
(http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=115565636718377&w=2).
Basically, I was having issues when suspending with netconsole
on my Realtek RTL-8029 network card (ne2k-pci).
But further investigations revealed that this driver (ne2k-pci)
have issues with suspend/resume even when netconsole is disabled
(see http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7082). These days,
I'm unable to do some tests with latest kernels because my ADSL
router is broken.
The point of this mail is that we should get rid of this "ssleep
2" since nobody else reported such an issue with netconsole and
the network driver I'm using appears to be not so clean.
