Commit Message

Chen Yu Oct. 22, 2020, 8:52 a.m. UTC
Currently there are 4 driver flags to control system suspend/resume
behavior: DPM_FLAG_NO_DIRECT_COMPLETE, DPM_FLAG_SMART_PREPARE,
DPM_FLAG_SMART_SUSPEND and DPM_FLAG_MAY_SKIP_RESUME. Make these flags
visible in sysfs as read-only to get a brief understanding of the
expected behavior of each device during suspend/resume, so as to
facilitate suspend/resume debugging/tuning.

For example:
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:15.1/power/driver_flags:4
(DPM_FLAG_SMART_SUSPEND)

/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:07.3/power/driver_flags:5
(DPM_FLAG_NO_DIRECT_COMPLETE | DPM_FLAG_SMART_SUSPEND)

You are now exporting random internal kernel values to userspace, so
they are now going to become a userspace API value that you must ensure
works for the next 20+ years.

Are you _SURE_ you want to do this?  What is this velue being exported
going to show you?  Who is going to use it?  For what?

And if you are going to export it to userspace, you need to actually
give userspace the values so that it knows what they are, by moving them
to a uapi file.

And if you do that, you need to name them a lot better...

As this is for debugging only, why is it in sysfs and not debugfs?

Ick, really?  Why not make it part of the other attribute group?  Why
make it a stand-alone one?  This feels like extra uneeded work if you
really are going to do this.

Which makes me wonder why we even expose this if the above is not set.

The value exposed can give the user(usually the developer who wants to
speed up the suspend/resume process on this platform) a brief overview
on each device. The 4 flags are actually suspend/resume speed up strategy.
By checking what the current suspend/resume speed up strategy of each device
is, we can infer if there any room to be improved in case some devices have
not enabled any suspend/resume speed up strategy yet.

If exposing them in sysfs is inappropriate as the cost of maintaining this
item is considerable, maybe we can print this flag in power debug message during
suspend/resume, via dynamic debug.

Because
1. There seems to be no proper directory for per-device item in debugfs.
2. There seems to be other power related debug items in this directory.

Ah, yes, it should be put into existing attribute group which makes it
much simpler.

But since you mentioned that maintaining this item in sysfs looks overkill,
we can put this flags information in dynamic debug log, which only includes
one line of code change, although the disadvantage is that we will need to
do a real suspend/resume cycle to get driver_flags to be printed.

It will not be exposed if the config is disabled. 'empty' means
'not present' I think.

Sorry I misunderstood your point previously, I can change in next
version. But might need to wait for Greg to decide if this item
should be exposed or not first.
