I understand, sorry for not being clear enough.
My point is, you must not update dev->power.suspended_time, without
also setting a new value for dev->power.accounting_timestamp.
Otherwise, the next time the core calls
update_pm_runtime_accounting(), it will end up adding a wrong delta to
dev->power.suspended_time.
BTW, it seems like you have based this on top of some patch converting
from jiffies to ktime, as I can't fine dev->power.suspended_time, but
instead I have dev->power.suspended_jiffies.

The core keeps tracks of the "total suspended time". Each time
update_pm_runtime_accounting() is called, and the state is
RPM_SUSPENDED it adds a delta to the total suspended time. Just to be
clear, this may even happen when userspace reads the
"runtime_suspended_time" sysfs node.
My point is, the core doesn't track the "total suspended time since
the last transition", which seems to be what the drm driver tries to
figure out.
Just to be clear, I don't think we should update the core to provide
the data reflecting that time, as it would add overhead from
additional time computations. I think it's better to push this down to
those drivers that needs it, as it seems like a highly unusual thing.
Instead, perhaps we should provide an API
(pm_runtime_suspended_time()) that simply returns the value of
dev->power.suspended_jiffies. The driver/subsystem could then call
this API from its ->runtime_suspend|resume() callbacks, for example,
to store values from it locally and later compute the deltas from it
that it needs.
Do note that, the core updates the status of the device to
RPM_SUSPENDED, after the ->runtime_suspend() callback has returned a
successful error code. Hence, calling the API from a
->runtime_suspend() callback would fetch the total suspended time, up
until the last time the device became runtime resumed. That should be
helpful, right?
> and the time elapse in the current state when suspened
Re-thinking this a bit from my earlier comments - and by following the
above reasoning, it sounds like this better belongs in the
driver/subsystem, without requiring any data from the core.
The driver/subsystem could just store a timestamp in it's
->runtime_suspend() callback and whenever needed, it could compute a
delta towards it. That should work, right?
[...]
Kind regards
