Subject[PATCH] PM / sleep: Fix racing timers
Date
On platforms that do not power off during suspend, successfully entering
suspend races with timers.

The race happening in a couple of location is:

1. disable IRQs (e.g. arch_suspend_disable_irqs())
...
2. syscore_suspend()
-> timekeeping_suspend()
-> clockevents_notify(SUSPEND)
-> tick_suspend() (timers are turned off here)
...
3. wfi (wait for wake-IRQ here)

Between steps 1 and 2 the timers can still generate interrupts that are
not handled and stay pending until step 3. That pending IRQ causes an
immediate - spurious - wake.

The solution is to move the clockevents suspend/resume notification
out of the syscore_suspend step and explictly call them at the appropriate
time in the suspend/hibernation paths. I.e. timers are suspend _before_
IRQs get disabled. And accordingly in the resume path.

Hi,

there was a little of an dicussion on the RFC for this patch, but that
eventually ended (https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/7/21/493).
In the meantime I found one small flaw that is fixed in this patch (changelog
below).
This resolves the issues I see on my Zynq (ARM) platform and I also patched my
Laptop's (x86_64) kernel with this where it looks good as well. Though, in both
cases only suspend is used. Any testing - especially of hibernation - would
be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Sören

Changes since RFC:
- remove resume notification from syscore_resume path.
