[PATCH] s2ram debugging documentation
Linus posted quite nice TRACE_RESUME how-to, and I think it is too nice to be hidden in archives of mailing list, so I turned it into Documentation piece. Signed-off-by: Pavel Machek <pavel@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

How to get s2ram working
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
2006 Linus Torvalds
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
1) Check suspend.sf.net, program s2ram there has long whitelist of
|
||||
"known ok" machines, along with tricks to use on each one.
|
||||
|
||||
2) If that does not help, try reading tricks.txt and
|
||||
video.txt. Perhaps problem is as simple as broken module, and
|
||||
simple module unload can fix it.
|
||||
|
||||
3) You can use Linus' TRACE_RESUME infrastructure, described below.
|
||||
|
||||
Using TRACE_RESUME
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
I've been working at making the machines I have able to STR, and almost
|
||||
always it's a driver that is buggy. Thank God for the suspend/resume
|
||||
debugging - the thing that Chuck tried to disable. That's often the _only_
|
||||
way to debug these things, and it's actually pretty powerful (but
|
||||
time-consuming - having to insert TRACE_RESUME() markers into the device
|
||||
driver that doesn't resume and recompile and reboot).
|
||||
|
||||
Anyway, the way to debug this for people who are interested (have a
|
||||
machine that doesn't boot) is:
|
||||
|
||||
- enable PM_DEBUG, and PM_TRACE
|
||||
|
||||
- use a script like this:
|
||||
|
||||
#!/bin/sh
|
||||
sync
|
||||
echo 1 > /sys/power/pm_trace
|
||||
echo mem > /sys/power/state
|
||||
|
||||
to suspend
|
||||
|
||||
- if it doesn't come back up (which is usually the problem), reboot by
|
||||
holding the power button down, and look at the dmesg output for things
|
||||
like
|
||||
|
||||
Magic number: 4:156:725
|
||||
hash matches drivers/base/power/resume.c:28
|
||||
hash matches device 0000:01:00.0
|
||||
|
||||
which means that the last trace event was just before trying to resume
|
||||
device 0000:01:00.0. Then figure out what driver is controlling that
|
||||
device (lspci and /sys/devices/pci* is your friend), and see if you can
|
||||
fix it, disable it, or trace into its resume function.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, the above happens to be the VGA device on my EVO, which I
|
||||
used to run with "radeonfb" (it's an ATI Radeon mobility). It turns out
|
||||
that "radeonfb" simply cannot resume that device - it tries to set the
|
||||
PLL's, and it just _hangs_. Using the regular VGA console and letting X
|
||||
resume it instead works fine.
