OK, so do you mean I should call freeze_super() rather than freeze_bdev()?

So, what about the patch below? It appears to work on my test boxes.

Subject: PM / Freezer: Freeze filesystems while freezing processes (v3)
Freeze all filesystems during the freezing of tasks by calling
freeze_super() for all superblocks and thaw them during the thawing
of tasks with the help of thaw_super().
This is needed by hibernation, because some filesystems (e.g. XFS)
deadlock with the preallocation of memory used by it if the memory
pressure caused by it is too heavy.
The additional benefit of this change is that, if something goes
wrong after filesystems have been frozen, they will stay in a
consistent state and journal replays won't be necessary (e.g. after
a failing suspend or resume). In particular, this should help to
solve a long-standing issue that in some cases during resume from
hibernation the boot loader causes the journal to be replied for the
filesystem containing the kernel image and initrd causing it to
become inconsistent with the information stored in the hibernation
image.
This change is based on earlier work by Nigel Cunningham.

Below is an alternative fix, the changelog pretty much explains the idea.
I've tested it on Toshiba Portege R500, but I don't have an XFS partition
to verify that it really helps, so I'd appreciate it if someone able to
reproduce the original issue could test it and report back.
Thanks,

Subject: PM / Hibernate: Freeze kernel threads after preallocating memory
There is a problem with the current ordering of hibernate code which
leads to deadlocks in some filesystems' memory shrinkers. Namely,
some filesystems use freezable kernel threads that are inactive when
the hibernate memory preallocation is carried out. Those same
filesystems use memory shrinkers that may be triggered by the
hibernate memory preallocation. If those memory shrinkers wait for
the frozen kernel threads, the hibernate process deadlocks (this
happens with XFS, for one example).
Apparently, it is not technically viable to redesign the filesystems
in question to avoid the situation described above, so the only
possible solution of this issue is to defer the freezing of kernel
threads until the hibernate memory preallocation is done, which is
implemented by this change.

TuxOnIce has the following logic at the moment: Freeze all threads.
Calculate whether we have enough memory for the image, thaw kernel
threads only, free memory and try again if it looks like we don't have
enough. I've never heard of a deadlock, though I suppose one would be
possible if you had the added complication of userspace
drivers/filesystems - it would be good to be able to distinguish and
thaw them.
It does this prior to the atomic copy, using a user-supplied estimate of
the amount of memory drivers will need - the actual amount used is show
in debugging info at the end of the cycle. Apart from that, if you have
everything else frozen, everything else is pretty deterministic
(assuming you don't have any memory leaks in your image-writing code).

Well, it seems that the freezing of kernel threads in the first step
is not necessary. You can do (1) freeze user space, (2) check if there's
enough free memory, (3) free memory if necessary, (4) freeze kernel
threads instead. Which is what my patch does, actually. :-)

Yes, there is a known problem with FUSE in that area.

nvidia gpu => disabled compitz => wakeup worked two times.
2. virtualbox / stress test / xfs and ext4
on 3rd resume, it booted up "normal" like this:

Hmm, so there's a separate bug related to NVidia I guess.

Maybe.
Just made another test: the machine (macbook) woke up, loaded image, thaw.
It got stuck at vt#1, displaying console with login. Cursor blinking, but
no (usb) keyboard or network enabled. Bricked?!!
On the other hand I've got another box with nvidia gpu:
debian5 32bit
2.6.38.2+ #3 SMP Fri Apr 1
nvidia 260.19.36
It's up since I compiled the kernel: I use it twice a week and I kept it
freezed all the time. It was solid rock until today: hard reset on resume.
WTF? (I remember this version combo was stable on the macbook but the
kernel lacks a solid wireless driver).
There are a stupid situation where you can't debug. What else can go
wrong? This is off topic but it's a cute kernel crash while I gave the
nouveau driver a chance:

If that's an x86_64 system, there is a known bug causing problems like
this to happen. There's a patch fixing it, but not conclusive:

very good. seems to fix resume, at least the 2 times I tested so far.

Hi Rafael!
Well, the kernel bugtracker is still down and I just like to post my
experience with kernel (x64) v3.1-rc8/9 + patches. My machine is a
MacBookPro, doomed with 4GB RAM running debian.
Bug #1
on the way to hibernate, machine hangs on
"PM: Preallocating image memory..."
this patch worked for me now for weeks:
"[PATCH] PM / Freezer: Freeze filesystems while freezing processes (v2)"
https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/9/24/77
I was able to reproduce this bug with virtualbox and tested the patch ~40
cycles.
Bug#2
on resume from hibernate, hard reset (x64 only):
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=131653513414314&w=2
With this patch I haven't got this issue again the last weeks.
I wasn't able to reproduce this bug with virtualbox.
I only got one pm-hibernate issue. Last line:
Disabling non-boot CPUs ...
This time I've enabled debug hung task :)
schedule_timeout
...
workqueue_cpu_callback
notifier_call_chain
...
__cpu_notify
_cpu_down
printk
disable_nonboot_cpus
hibernation_snapshot
hibernate
...
Any other idea besides the possibility it's caused by evil earth
radiation, isn't it?
Gruss,
chris

Hmm. This issue appears to be still under investigation to me, but perhaps
that's taken too much already.
Takashi, perhaps you can repost the patch as a proper submission? It would
be good to have this regression fixed even if we don't know the real source of
it.

I'm not exactly sure what happened from your description, care to explain?

Hi,
I was the original reporter of the Bugzilla issue, just didn't know
about this thread until recently. Anyway, I'm running 3.2-rc1 now,
which contains the alternative fix, and I can confirm that it indeed
works: hibernation does not deadlock on my XFS rooted system anymore
during memory preallocation. Thanks everybody for his or her work on
the issue!
To add something still, preallocation now ends with a couple of seconds
of heavy disk activity, but with several seconds of total inactivity
beforehand. Is this warranted by some CPU intensive task at that stage?

Thanks,
Feri.

Quilte frankly, I have no idea.

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
There is a problem with the current ordering of hibernate code which
leads to deadlocks in some filesystems' memory shrinkers. Namely,
some filesystems use freezable kernel threads that are inactive when
the hibernate memory preallocation is carried out. Those same
filesystems use memory shrinkers that may be triggered by the
hibernate memory preallocation. If those memory shrinkers wait for
the frozen kernel threads, the hibernate process deadlocks (this
happens with XFS, for one example).
Apparently, it is not technically viable to redesign the filesystems
in question to avoid the situation described above, so the only
possible solution of this issue is to defer the freezing of kernel
threads until the hibernate memory preallocation is done, which is
implemented by this change.
Unfortunately, this requires the memory preallocation to be done
before the "prepare" stage of device freeze, so after this change the
only way drivers can allocate additional memory for their freeze
routines in a clean way is to use PM notifiers.
