Hm, suspicious ... The swap partition is not on an LVM, is it? > The message "eth0: trigger_send() called with the transmitter busy" didn't > appear anymore.

If that's 100% reproducible, could you please try to nail it down? Please revert the "suspend_console" patch before doing this, because it turns down all consoles altogether during the suspend. You can also use the patch and instructions at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-acpi&m=115506915023030&q=raw to debug device drivers' suspend/resume without really suspending. > I'm under the impression your patch is a workaround for my network problem. > Or must really netconsole be stopped during device_suspend ? Yes, it must. For now, the consoles are suspend-unfriendly, so to speak. ;-) > > kernel/power/disk.c | 7 +++++++ > > 1 files changed, 7 insertions(+) > > > > Index: linux-2.6.18-rc4-mm1/kernel/power/disk.c > > =================================================================== > > --- linux-2.6.18-rc4-mm1.orig/kernel/power/disk.c > > +++ linux-2.6.18-rc4-mm1/kernel/power/disk.c > > @@ -119,8 +119,10 @@ int pm_suspend_disk(void) > > if (error) > > return error; > > > > + suspend_console(); > > error = device_suspend(PMSG_FREEZE); > > if (error) { > > + resume_console(); > > printk("Some devices failed to suspend\n"); > > unprepare_processes(); > > return error; > > @@ -133,6 +135,7 @@ int pm_suspend_disk(void) > > > > if (in_suspend) { > > device_resume(); > > + resume_console(); > > pr_debug("PM: writing image.\n"); > > error = swsusp_write(); > > if (!error) > > @@ -148,6 +151,7 @@ int pm_suspend_disk(void) > > swsusp_free(); > > Done: > > device_resume(); > > + resume_console(); > > unprepare_processes(); > > return error; > > } > > @@ -212,7 +216,9 @@ static int software_resume(void) > > > > pr_debug("PM: Preparing devices for restore.\n"); > > > > + suspend_console(); > > if ((error = device_suspend(PMSG_PRETHAW))) { > > + resume_console(); > > printk("Some devices failed to suspend\n"); > > swsusp_free(); > > goto Thaw; > > @@ -224,6 +230,7 @@ static int software_resume(void) > > swsusp_resume(); > > pr_debug("PM: Restore failed, recovering.n"); > > device_resume(); > > + resume_console(); > > Thaw: > > unprepare_processes(); > > Done: > > BTW, it doesn't apply cleanly: > > CC kernel/power/disk.o > kernel/power/disk.c: In function 'pm_suspend_disk': > kernel/power/disk.c:122: warning: implicit declaration of function > 'suspend_console' > kernel/power/disk.c:125: warning: implicit declaration of function > 'resume_console' Thanks. I think I'll prepare a bigger patch to add turning off the consoles with a config switch to disable this. Greetings, Rafael -- You never change things by fighting the existing reality. R.
