Placing a WARN_ON there seems to suggest drivers should not return -EAGAIN, so I think I'll just add back those dropped code to sdev_runtime_suspend as you have suggested like this: static int sdev_runtime_suspend(struct device *dev) { const struct dev_pm_ops *pm = dev->driver ? dev->driver->pm : NULL; int (*cb)(struct device *) = pm ? pm->runtime_suspend : NULL; struct scsi_device *sdev = to_scsi_device(dev); int ret; if (sdev->request_queue->dev) return sdev_blk_runtime_suspend(sdev, cb); ret = scsi_dev_type_suspend(dev, cb); if (ret == -EAGAIN) pm_schedule_suspend(dev, jiffies_to_msecs( round_jiffies_up_relative(HZ/10))); return ret; } Does this look OK? > > > BTW, I'll be on vocation till 02/17, and I don't have access to the > > internet in my hometown, but please feel free to drop any comments and > > I'll check them when I get back. > > I'm going on vacation next week too.
