hi Bart,
Alan says the same (on block request, the block layer should initiate a
runtime resume), so merging with the thread from
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-usb/8738e4d3-62b1-0144-107d-ff42000ed6c6@xxxxxxx/T/
now and answer to both Bart and Alan here:]
I see scsi-pm.c using the blk-pm.c API but I'm not sure how the block
layer would itself resume the scsi device (I use it via usb_storage, so
that usb_stor_resume() follows in my case but I guess that doesn't
matter here):
my understanding of "sd" is: enable runtime pm in probe(), so *allow*
the device to be suspended (if enabled by the user), but never
resume(?). Also, why isn't "autopm" used in its ioctl() implementation
(as opposed to in "sr")?
here's roughly what happens when enabling runtime PM in sysfs (again,
because sd_probe() calls autopm_put() and thus allows it:
[ 27.384446] sd 0:0:0:0: scsi_runtime_suspend
[ 27.432282] blk_pre_runtime_suspend
[ 27.435783] sd_suspend_common
[ 27.438782] blk_post_runtime_suspend
[ 27.442427] scsi target0:0:0: scsi_runtime_suspend
[ 27.447303] scsi host0: scsi_runtime_suspend
then I "mount /dev/sda1 /mnt" and none of the resume() functions get
called. To me it looks like the sd driver should initiate resuming, and
that's not implemented.
what am I doing wrong or overlooking? how exactly does (or should) the
block layer initiate resume here?
thanks again for your time,
martin
