Bug in PCI core

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When a PCI device is suspended, its driver calls pci_save_state() so that
the config space can be restored when the device is resumed.  Then the
driver calls pci_set_power_state().

However pci_set_power_state() calls pci_block_user_cfg_access(), and that 
routine calls pci_save_state() again.  This overwrites the saved state 
with data in which memory, I/O, and bus master accesses are disabled.  As 
a result, when the device is resumed it doesn't work.

Obviously pci_block_user_cfg_access() needs to be fixed.  I don't know the 
right way to fix it; hopefully somebody else does.
