I have been looking at the above issue with the tps6586x because I am seeing delays on resume caused by this driver on the stable branches. I understand that this patch was dropped for stable, but looking at the specific issue with the tps6586x I am curious why the tps6586x driver was not fixed because it appears to me that the issue largely resides with that driver and any other device that uses the tps6586x is susceptible to it. I was able to fix the tps6586x driver by doing the following and I am interested in your thoughts ... Subject: [PATCH] mfd: tps6586x: Handle interrupts on suspend The tps6586x device is registered as an irqchip and the tps6586x-rtc interrupt is one of it's interrupt sources. When using the tps6586x-rtc as a wake-up device from suspend, the following is seen: PM: Syncing filesystems ... done. Freezing user space processes ... (elapsed 0.001 seconds) done. OOM killer disabled. Freezing remaining freezable tasks ... (elapsed 0.000 seconds) done. Disabling non-boot CPUs ... Entering suspend state LP1 Enabling non-boot CPUs ... CPU1 is up tps6586x 3-0034: failed to read interrupt status tps6586x 3-0034: failed to read interrupt status The reason why the tps6586x interrupt status cannot be read is because the tps6586x interrupt is not masked during suspend and when the tps6586x-rtc interrupt occurs, to wake-up the device, the interrupt is seen before the i2c controller has been resumed in order to read the tps6586x interrupt status. The tps6586x-rtc driver sets it's interrupt as a wake-up source during suspend, which gets propagated to the parent tps6586x interrupt. However, the tps6586x-rtc driver cannot disable it's interrupt during suspend otherwise we would never be woken up and so the tps6586x must disable it's interrupt instead. Fix this by disabling the tps6586x interrupt on entering suspend and re-enabling it on resuming from suspend. --- drivers/mfd/tps6586x.c | 22 ++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 22 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/mfd/tps6586x.c b/drivers/mfd/tps6586x.c index 5628a6b5b19b..165ac8a3d22c 100644 --- a/drivers/mfd/tps6586x.c +++ b/drivers/mfd/tps6586x.c @@ -594,6 +594,27 @@ static int tps6586x_i2c_remove(struct i2c_client *client) return 0; } +static int __maybe_unused tps6586x_i2c_suspend(struct device *dev) +{ + struct tps6586x *tps6586x = dev_get_drvdata(dev); + + disable_irq(tps6586x->client->irq); + + return 0; +} + +static int __maybe_unused tps6586x_i2c_resume(struct device *dev) +{ + struct tps6586x *tps6586x = dev_get_drvdata(dev); + + enable_irq(tps6586x->client->irq); + + return 0; +} + +static SIMPLE_DEV_PM_OPS(tps6586x_pm_ops, tps6586x_i2c_suspend, + tps6586x_i2c_resume); + static const struct i2c_device_id tps6586x_id_table[] = { { "tps6586x", 0 }, { }, @@ -604,6 +625,7 @@ static int tps6586x_i2c_remove(struct i2c_client *client) .driver = { .name = "tps6586x", .of_match_table = of_match_ptr(tps6586x_of_match), + .pm = &tps6586x_pm_ops, }, .probe = tps6586x_i2c_probe, .remove = tps6586x_i2c_remove, -- 1.9.1 -- nvpublic
