| |
Hi everyone,
s2idle is blocked on machines without proper cpuidle support here in kernel/sched/idle.c:
> if (cpuidle_not_available(drv, dev)) { > tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick();
> default_idle_call(); > goto exit_idle; > }
> /* > * Suspend-to-idle ("s2idle") is a system state in which all user space > * has been frozen, all I/O devices have been suspended and the only
However, there are 2 problems with this approach:
1. The suspend framework does not expect this, and continues to suspend the machine, which causes machines without proper cpuidle support to break when suspending 2. Suspend actually works on ARM64 machines even without proper cpuidle (PSCI cpuidle) since they support wfi, so the assumption here is wrong on such machines
I'm not exactly sure how to figure this out, and my attempts have all led to an unbootable kernel, so I've cc'ed the relevant people and hopefully we can find a solution to this problem.
Thanks, Kazuki
