Looked at this a bit more from acpi cpufreq angle.

But, I feel the patch that Johannes had here
http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0906.2/00335.html
is the right fix as we do the same saving and restoring of flags on SMP
when cpu==this_cpu. This change will make code in UP same as that in SMP
with 1 CPU active.

We can avoid the driver->get call from cpufreq_suspend for the drivers
that do not do any freq changes in their suspend methods. But, then we
will hit this same problem in cpufreq_resume() path and there we do want
to check for adjust_jiffies for all drivers as long as CONSTANT_LOOPS is
not set.

Venki

Why do we need to call that driver->get from cpufreq_suspend() in the first
place?  We know we are on CPU0, there are no any other CPUs active and
interrupts are disabled, so why do we need to care for any races?

cpufreq core is trying to get the current frequency on the CPU and call
adjust_jiffies(). Both in suspend and resume. Looks like it is needed
only for some systems on suspend path, as the driver suspend routine may
change freq. But, it is probably needed for most of the systems on
resume time as CPU may come up with different freq.
It doesn't care about races. Problem is that ->get method used here is
same as the one used in normal system working state. In system working
state, ->get has to get the frequency from proper CPU using
smp_call_function and int enabled.

I thought Andrew was worried about SMP case. But, we already do this in
SMP case
kernel/smp.c:smp_call_function_single()
        if (cpu == this_cpu) {
                local_irq_save(flags);
                func(info);
                local_irq_restore(flags);
        } else {

That patch changes
kernel/up.c:smp_call_function_single()
        local_irq_disable();
        (func)(info);
        local_irq_enable();
to add save and restore flags.

Thanks a lot for bisecting this!

Is it the reason for the enabling of interrupts during cpufreq_suspend()?

Is there anything we can do to fix this quickly?

I think your guess was right. The patch below fixes the
problem for me (hang after resume and backtrace on suspend).

Fix swsusp failure on !SMP

Commit 01599fca6758d2cd133e78f87426fc851c9ea725 introduced
a regression which caused a backtrace on suspend and
a hang on resume on a Thinkpad T42p (Pentium M CPU).

ok, what's going on here?  The patch implies that someone (presumably
acpi-cpufreq) is calling smp_call_function_single() with local
interrupts disabled.  That's a bug on SMP kernels.  And it'll generate
a trace if it happens:

	/* Can deadlock when called with interrupts disabled */
	WARN_ON_ONCE(irqs_disabled() && !oops_in_progress);

but nobody has reported such a trace AFAIK?

Also, prior to 01599fca6758d2cd133e78f87426fc851c9ea725, acpi-cpufreq
was using work_on_cpu().  If it was calling work_on_cpu() with local
interrupts disabled then that would have been a bug too, which could
generate might_sleep() or scheduling-while-atomic warnings.



Because it is a bug to call the SMP version of
smp_call_function_single() with local interrupts disabled, I don't
think we should need to apply the above patch.

But I don't know what we _should_ do because I don't know what the bug
is.  Are you able to get us a copy of that stack trace?

This problem apparently only exists on !SMP kernels...

On !SMP, work_on_cpu() is just a function call:
http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v2.6.30/include/linux/workqueue.h#L261

> Because it is a bug to call the SMP version of

and on SMP, smp_call_function_single() also uses
local_irq_save/restore() iff  cpu == this_cpu:
http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v2.6.30/kernel/smp.c#L272

> But I don't know what we _should_ do because I don't know what the bug

Unfortunately my laptop doesn't have a serial port, and the
stack trace is large and scrolls off the screen, I can only
see the last part of it and I would need to find someone with
a camera to take a picture...

Can you try the patch below (your changes + a warnon). That should give
the stack trace with successful suspend-resume.

acpi-cpufreq will not directly disable interrupt and call these routines.
So, it will be interesting to see how we are ending up in this state.

Right, so it's the suspend-must-disable-local-interrupts thing.  Again.
 create_image()'s local_irq_disable().

It was wrong to call work_on_cpu() with lcoal interrupts disabled, and
it's now wrong to call smp_call_function_single() with local interrupts
disabled.  It's just that smp_call_function_single() warns while
work_on_cpu() didn't.

That all explains the warning But afaik we still don't know why your
machine actually failed.  Perhaps it is a side-efect of emitting the
warning when the console is in a weird state?

So..  what to do?  Possibly we could hack cpufreq to not use
smp_call_function_single() if the call is to be done on the local CPU. 
But SMP might still be broken - if it really does want to do a cross-cpu
call.

Why does cpufreq need to do a cross-CPU get_cur_freq_on_cpu() call at
suspend time _anyway_?  Surely cpufreq knows the target CPU's frequency
from its internal in-main-memory state?

We surely do not need cross CPU cal at this point as all secondary cpus
will be offline at this point.

That was what I was wondering as well. Looks like this part of
cpufreq_suspend came from

commit 42d4dc3f4e1ec1396371aac89d0dccfdd977191b
Author: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
Date:   Fri Apr 29 07:40:12 2005 -0700

    [PATCH] Add suspend method to cpufreq core
    
    In order to properly fix some issues with cpufreq vs. sleep on
    PowerBooks, I had to add a suspend callback to the pmac_cpufreq
driver.
    I must force a switch to full speed before sleep and I switch back
to
    previous speed on resume.
    
    I also added a driver flag to disable the warnings in suspend/resume
    since it is expected in this case to have different speed (and I
want it
    to fixup the jiffies properly).

benh: Do you think we still need this cpufreq_driver->get() and return
error on (!cur_freq || !cpu_policy->cur) stuff?
May be we should all the checks only if CPUFREQ_PM_NO_WARN is set?

In fact, we need to do this entire thing differently.

The basic problem is that cpufreq_suspend() is a sysdev thing, so it will 
always be called with iterrupts off and *only* for CPU0.  So, it looks like
the majority of things we do there is just unnecessary (at least).

Best,
Rafael

smp_call_function_single() enables irqs and hibernate doesn't like that?

BTW, I have no other UP machine to test with, but I reported
in another thread that a !SMP kernel (or a SMP kernel
with maxcpus=0 parameter) does not boot at all on
my destop machine, see
http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/6/12/468

No idea if I should be worried about this since the
SMP kernel now works fine, another hibernate problem
was solved in
http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/6/14/156
