Make the device suspend/resume part of the core system suspend/resume code use device links to ensure that supplier and consumer devices will be suspended and resumed in the right order in case of async suspend/resume. The idea, roughly, is to use dpm_wait() to wait for all consumers before a supplier device suspend and to wait for all suppliers before a consumer device resume.For devices with a parent/child relationship, if the child does not utilize direct_complete, the parent is not allowed to utilize it either and is runtime resumed upon system sleep. Don't we need the same for supplier/consumer relationships? The code enforcing this is in __device_suspend() and looks like this: if (parent) { spin_lock_irq(&parent->power.lock); dev->parent->power.direct_complete = false; if (dev->power.wakeup_path && !dev->parent->power.ignore_children) dev->parent->power.wakeup_path = true; spin_unlock_irq(&parent->power.lock); } I guess we need to iterate over the suppliers here and execute the block for each of them.
You are right about the direct_complete thing, but the wakeup_path thing is another matter. It is about forwarding wakeup signals up the hierarchy and I'd confine it to parents at least for the time being. Thanks, Rafael
