Both the state == H_VASI_ENABLED and state == H_VASI_SUSPENDING cause ppc_rtas to go to the copy_return and return 0 (albeit with an error code in args.rets[0]), because rtas_ppc goes back to out userland, I hesitate to change any of that. > } > > if (!alloc_cpumask_var(&offline_mask, GFP_TEMPORARY)) > @@ -1060,9 +1058,10 @@ asmlinkage int ppc_rtas(struct rtas_args __user *uargs) > int vasi_rc = 0; This generates unused variable warning. > u64 handle = ((u64)be32_to_cpu(args.args[0]) << 32) > | be32_to_cpu(args.args[1]); > - rc = rtas_ibm_suspend_me(handle, &vasi_rc); > - args.rets[0] = cpu_to_be32(vasi_rc); > - if (rc) > + rc = rtas_ibm_suspend_me(handle); > + if (rc == -EAGAIN) > + args.rets[0] = cpu_to_be32(RTAS_NOT_SUSPENDABLE); (continuing on...) so perhaps here have rc = 0; else if (rc == -EIO) args.rets[0] = cpu_to_be32(-1); rc = 0; Which should keep the original behaviour, the last thing we want to do is break BE. Might be worth checking that rc from rtas_ibm_suspend_me will only be -EAGAIN and -EIO when they are explicitly set in rtas_ibm_suspend_me and can't come back out from the hcall. >>From reading PAPR we're ok there but just as a thought it might be worth returning errno as positive because hcall errors are going to be negative, to make life easier at some point... but then we'll have to remember to make them negative when going back to userland (and there are two places...) so there's no perfect win here. > + else if (rc) > return rc; > goto copy_return; > } > diff --git a/arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/mobility.c b/arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/mobility.c > index 90cf3dc..29e4f04 100644 > --- a/arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/mobility.c > +++ b/arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/mobility.c > @@ -325,15 +325,13 @@ static ssize_t migrate_store(struct class *class, struct class_attribute *attr, > return rc; > > do { > - rc = rtas_ibm_suspend_me(streamid, &vasi_rc); > - if (!rc && vasi_rc == RTAS_NOT_SUSPENDABLE) > + rc = rtas_ibm_suspend_me(streamid); > + if (rc == -EAGAIN) > ssleep(1); > - } while (!rc && vasi_rc == RTAS_NOT_SUSPENDABLE); > + } while (rc == -EAGAIN); This is going to change the value of the error code. > > if (rc) > return rc; > - if (vasi_rc) > - return vasi_rc; > > post_mobility_fixup(); > return count; Thanks for taking it, it looks nicer now.
