Now runtime PM is still enabled for sd/sr, and I believe the following patch is needed until we figure out one perfect way for supporting it well: diff --git a/block/blk-core.c b/block/blk-core.c index 03a4ea93a5f3..090b782df129 100644 --- a/block/blk-core.c +++ b/block/blk-core.c @@ -3769,9 +3769,11 @@ EXPORT_SYMBOL(blk_finish_plug); */ void blk_pm_runtime_init(struct request_queue *q, struct device *dev) { - /* not support for RQF_PM and ->rpm_status in blk-mq yet */ - if (q->mq_ops) + /* Don't enable runtime PM for blk-mq until it is ready */ + if (q->mq_ops) { + pm_runtime_disable(dev); return; + } q->dev = dev; q->rpm_status = RPM_ACTIVE; Thanks, Ming
