Hi all, PM specialists, As per my understanding, pm_runtime_mark_last_busy() doesn't cascade to the parent device: - in pm_runtime.h: static inline void pm_runtime_mark_last_busy(struct device *dev) { WRITE_ONCE(dev->power.last_busy, ktime_get_mono_fast_ns()); } STM32 ADC driver uses a model with an autosupsend delay for - a parent driver to handle common resources, registers etc. - child drivers for each ADC. So the question is on how to fix the behavior I described: 1: Child activity with "short" autosuspend_delay 2: Parent activity with "longer" autosuspend_delay _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1: _| |___| |___| |___| |___| |_..._| |___| |___| |_... v v v v v v v v v v ... v v v v v v | | | | | +- pm_runtime_mark_last_busy() | | | +- pm_runtime_put_autosuspend() v | | | | +--- pm_runtime_get_sync() | v | | | +---> expires after autosuspend_delay | | | | | v v v _______________________________________ ___... 2: _| ... |___| Glitches on parent dev near autosuspend_delay ^ - does the child driver needs to "kick" parent driver with pm_runtime_mark_last_busy(), as proposed in current patch ? - or is it something that should be done by PM runtime core routines ? e.g. make pm_runtime_mark_last_busy() recursive or something else ?
