udev is being a little too aggressive in enabling autosuspend. I've just sent a patch upstream, but here it is: commit 35c62663b93adb6ab321ca1e6ac6f1ba580b37aa Author: Matthew Garrett <mjg@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri May 25 08:00:05 2012 -0400 rules: Limit USB autosuspend on USB HID devices Some USB ports on external hubs may be reported as "fixed". We only want to auto-enable this on ports that are internal to the machine, so check the parent state as well. diff --git a/rules/42-usb-hid-pm.rules b/rules/42-usb-hid-pm.rules index d5d5897..fc44b94 100644 --- a/rules/42-usb-hid-pm.rules +++ b/rules/42-usb-hid-pm.rules @@ -46,4 +46,10 @@ ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="04b3", ATTR{idProduct}=="4012 ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="14dd", ATTR{idProduct}="0002", TEST=="power/control", ATTR{power/control}="auto" # USB HID devices that are internal to the machine should also be safe to autosuspend + +ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{removable}=="removable", GOTO="usb_hid_pm_end" +ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{removable}=="unknown", GOTO="usb_hid_pm_end" + ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{bInterfaceClass}=="03", ATTRS{removable}=="fixed", TEST=="../power/control", ATTR{../power/control}="auto" + +LABEL="usb_add_pm_end" -- Matthew Garrett | mjg59@xxxxxxxxxxxxx -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
