From: Michael Holzheu <holzheu at linux.vnet.ibm.com> This patch is a suggestion to solve the issue reported by Ursula Braun: https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/linux-pm/2009-March/020443.html On s390 we have device drivers that don't belong to a Linux bus. Therefore we can't use the PM device callbacks (dev_pm_ops). The only way to get informed that we hibernate or resume is the pm_notifier_call_chain. Unfortunately some of our drivers need a frozen userspace to do their hibernate actions and the current notifiers are called before userspace is frozen. Another point is that we want our console driver to suspend as late as possible so that we can see all the hibernate progress messages on the console. This patch introduces the following new events for the pm_notifier: * PM_HIBERNATION_PREPARE_FROZEN: Going to hibernate. Processes are frozen. * PM_POST_HIBERNATION_FROZEN: Hibernation finished. Processes are frozen. * PM_RESTORE_PREPARE_FROZEN: Going to restore a saved image. Processes are frozen. * PM_POST_RESTORE_FROZEN: Restore failed. Processes are frozen.
