AFAICS, the hibernation image is restored from a late_initcall and so /bin/init etc. won't be run in the loader kernel and so the driver won't be loaded if built as a module. But in theory at least it's possible that the driver won't even be configured in the loader kernel. > So maybe we need to throw a gpu reset into the right hook (shutdown or > whatever it was) to make sure the loader kernel really stops all gpu write > cycles, including anything done due to power saving context restoring. The callback called right before the hibernation image is restored is freeze. Shutdown is called only after creating the image, before powering off. --Imre > We already know that the only way to get the gpu off the context image > permanently is a gpu reset, so that would make some sense. > -Daniel > > > > > > > If we need to add a ->shutdown callback (if > > > > that is even called before hibernate restore) then we can only fix > > > > future kernels and are still susceptible to corruption when booing > > > > from > > > > old kernels. > > > > > > > > Any one familiar with the details of the hibernation restore?
