Dear linux-dvb developers, dear Matthias,
proper suspend and resume support for the b2c2_flexcop_pci driver is still missing as pointed out by these two bug reports:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=288267
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14394
The first report contains a proposed patch to add suspend/resume support written by Matthias Schwarzott<zzam@xxxxxxxxxx>. I and some others (see first bug report) confirm that it's actually working.
Behaviour without the patch: b2c2_flexcop_pci must be unloaded before suspending (means TV applications must be closed), and reloaded after resuming.
Behaviour with the patch: No module unloading/reloading necessary any more.
Known issues: TV application still needs to be closed before suspend. Otherwise the device is not functional (kaffeine shows only black screen) after resume. Reloading the module revives the device in that case.
I'd kindly ask you to review the attached patch by Matthias and consider its upstream inclusion after the issues are sorted out. I'm more than willing to assist and test as I can.
I don't have any b2c2 device, so I can't actually test it. on a quick lock,
it seems sane on my eyes. In order for us to merge, we need the patch author's
Signed-off-by.
Hi!
I do not remember exactly what were the open issues with this patch or
how they could be solved, but if you want to merge the patch as it is, I
am fine with this.
So here is my Signed-off-by:
Signed-off-by: Matthias Schwarzott <zzam@xxxxxxxxxx>
Regards
Matthias
