Well, interrupts _are_ disabled across suspend/resume. ...just not at the point this function runs. You're right thought that I could do my work in the "no_irq" variant of the function. > Would would happen if we tried to > service an interrupt with the ciu clock disabled? Hrm, good question. I was thinking that all would be OK because the interrupt would kick off something to the MMC layer which would then realize that the system was suspended, but I that's actually not the case. It turns out that the root cause of my problem was actually SDIO interrupts coming after suspend and causing problems. It looks like this might not be a problem in mainline Linux but it was a problem in my old 3.14-based tree. Once I fixed that I no longer need this patch. Sorry for the noise. :( I've been trying to be in the habit of sending stuff upstream immediately (so I don't forget about stuff), but a bad side effect of that is some extra noise... Sigh. Anyway, I guess I'd say that we should consider this patch abandoned, though if someone would like me to submit something that turns off "ciu" and "biu" clock in the "noirq" suspend I'm happy to do it. I don't have any strong need now though it would get rid of the TODO sitting in the code. ...or we could just remove the TODO. -Doug -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-mmc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
