Why is this file in include/linux/ if you only ever call it from

one .c

file?

I just refer to include/linux/suspend.h and create a new header file in

the

same folder.
If you have a better location for the new header file, please feel free

to

let me know.

Only put .h files that are needed by different .c files in the include/linux/ directory. Otherwise it should be local to where the .c file is.
Great, use that!

But we really hit the suspend hang issue that DPM_WATCHDOG cannot cover.

What issue is that?

Quoted 8 lines

We propose a wide coverage debug feature like PM_SLEEP_MONITOR which not only covers PM but also core PM hang issues.

And DPM_WATCHDOG is for device driver power management in drivers/base/power/main.c
and PM_SLEEP_MONITOR locate is for core power management in kernel/power/suspend.c.
I think it is fine for users to select whether they need device PM only

or

Quoted 1 line

not.

How will a user know which they should use?

Why not just fix whatever is wrong with the watchdog code instead of creating a new one?

Quoted 4 lines
Quoted 2 lines

And why isn't the watchdog sufficient for you? Why are you "open coding" a watchdog timer logic here at all???

Yes, we refer to DPM_WATCHDOG to extend the watchdog debugging for core

PM.

Quoted 1 line

Because we really hit a real case that was not covered by DPM_WATCHDOG.

Then fix that!

DPM_WATCHDOG.

Please just fix the watchdog, as obviously it is not working properly. Don't create something new because of that.

thanks,

Thank you Greq for promptly responding.
I am okay to fix the DPM_WATCHDOG feature, but would like to have quick sync up before start. Could you help?

1. Can we change the kernel config name ? DPM_WATCHDOG stands for Device Power Management.
We propose PM_SLEEP_MONITOR is to cover Core PM and Device PM.

2. Can we create a new data structure instead of using the following struct dpm_watchdog?

struct dpm_watchdog {
	struct device		*dev;
	struct task_struct	*tsk;
	struct timer_list	timer;
};

I list some reasons by following ...

static int device_resume(struct device *dev, pm_message_t state, bool async)

{
	pm_callback_t callback = NULL;
	const char *info = NULL;
	int error = 0;
	DECLARE_DPM_WATCHDOG_ON_STACK(wd);  <== dpm_watchdog use stack memory for  

watchdog timer struct, but sleep timer use global memory.

...<SNIP>

	if (!dpm_wait_for_superior(dev, async))
		goto Complete;

	dpm_watchdog_set(&wd, dev);  <== dpm_watchdog need "struct device", but  
sleep timer doesn't need it.
	device_lock(dev);

...<SNIP>

Unlock:

	device_unlock(dev);
	dpm_watchdog_clear(&wd);

Complete:

	complete_all(&dev->power.completion);

	TRACE_RESUME(error);

	return error;
}

Thank you,
Joseph.
