Linux電源管理(8)_Wakeup count功能

1. 前言

Wakeup count是Wakeup events framework的組成部分,用於解決“system suspend和system wakeup events之間的同步問題”。本文將結合“Linux電源管理(6)_Generic PM之Suspend功能”和“Linux電源管理(7)_Wakeup events framework”兩篇文章,分析wakeup count的功能、實現邏輯、背後的思考,同時也是對這兩篇文章的複習和總結。

2. wakeup count在電源管理中的位置

wakeup count的實現位於wakeup events framework中(drivers/base/power/wakeup.c),主要為兩個模組提供介面:通過PM core向用戶空間提供sysfs介面;直接向autosleep(請參考下一篇文章)提供介面。

3. wakeup count的功能

wakeup count的功能是suspend同步,實現思路是這樣的:

1)任何想發起電源狀態切換的實體(可以是使用者空間電源管理程序,也可以是核心執行緒,簡稱C),在發起狀態切換前,讀取系統的wakeup counts(該值記錄了當前的wakeup event總數),並將讀取的counts告知wakeup events framework。

2)wakeup events framework記錄該counts到一個全域性變數中(saved_count)。

3)隨後C發起電源狀態切換(如STR),執行suspend過程。

4)在suspend的過程中,wakeup events framework照舊工作(直到系統中斷被關閉),上報wakeup events,增加wakeup events counts。

5)suspend執行的一些時間點(可參考“Linux電源管理(6)_Generic PM之Suspend功能”),會呼叫wakeup  events framework提供的介面(pm_wakeup_pending),檢查是否有wakeup沒有處理。

6)檢查邏輯很簡單,就是比較當前的wakeup counts和saved wakeup counts(C發起電源狀態切換時的counts),如果不同,就要終止suspend過程。

4. wakeup count的實現邏輯

4.1 一個例子

在進行程式碼分析之前,我們先用虛擬碼的形式,寫出一個利用wakeup count進行suspend操作的例子,然後基於該例子,分析相關的實現。

   1: do {
   2:     ret = read(&cnt, "/sys/power/wakeup_count");
   3:     if (ret) {
   4:         ret = write(cnt, "/sys/power/wakeup_count");
   5:     } else {
   6:         countine;
   7:     }
   8: } while (!ret);
   9:  
  10: write("mem", "/sys/power/state");
  11:  
  12: /* goto here after wakeup */

例子很簡單:

a)讀取wakeup count值,如果成功,將讀取的值回寫。否則說明有正在處理的wakeup events,continue。

b)回寫後,判斷返回值是否成功,如果不成功(說明讀、寫的過程中產生了wakeup events),繼續讀、寫,直到成功。成功後,可以觸發電源狀態切換。

4.2 /sys/power/wakeup_count

wakeup_count檔案是在kernel/power/main.c中,利用power_attr註冊的,如下(大家可以仔細研讀一下那一大段註釋,核心很多註釋寫的非常好,而好的註釋,就是軟體功力的體現):

   1: /*
   2:  * The 'wakeup_count' attribute, along with the functions defined in
   3:  * drivers/base/power/wakeup.c, provides a means by which wakeup events can be
   4:  * handled in a non-racy way.
   5:  *
   6:  * If a wakeup event occurs when the system is in a sleep state, it simply is
   7:  * woken up.  In turn, if an event that would wake the system up from a sleep
   8:  * state occurs when it is undergoing a transition to that sleep state, the
   9:  * transition should be aborted.  Moreover, if such an event occurs when the
  10:  * system is in the working state, an attempt to start a transition to the
  11:  * given sleep state should fail during certain period after the detection of
  12:  * the event.  Using the 'state' attribute alone is not sufficient to satisfy
  13:  * these requirements, because a wakeup event may occur exactly when 'state'
  14:  * is being written to and may be delivered to user space right before it is
  15:  * frozen, so the event will remain only partially processed until the system is
  16:  * woken up by another event.  In particular, it won't cause the transition to
  17:  * a sleep state to be aborted.
  18:  *
  19:  * This difficulty may be overcome if user space uses 'wakeup_count' before
  20:  * writing to 'state'.  It first should read from 'wakeup_count' and store
  21:  * the read value.  Then, after carrying out its own preparations for the system
  22:  * transition to a sleep state, it should write the stored value to
  23:  * 'wakeup_count'.  If that fails, at least one wakeup event has occurred since
  24:  * 'wakeup_count' was read and 'state' should not be written to.  Otherwise, it
  25:  * is allowed to write to 'state', but the transition will be aborted if there
  26:  * are any wakeup events detected after 'wakeup_count' was written to.

  29: static ssize_t wakeup_count_show(struct kobject *kobj,
  30:                                 struct kobj_attribute *attr,
  31:                                 char *buf)
  32: {
  33:         unsigned int val;
  34:  
  35:         return pm_get_wakeup_count(&val, true) ?
  36:                 sprintf(buf, "%u\n", val) : -EINTR;
  37: }

  39: static ssize_t wakeup_count_store(struct kobject *kobj,
  40:                                 struct kobj_attribute *attr,
  41:                                 const char *buf, size_t n)
  42: {
  43:         unsigned int val;
  44: int error;
  45:  
  46: error = pm_autosleep_lock();
  47: if (error)
  48:         return error;
  49:  
  50: if (pm_autosleep_state() > PM_SUSPEND_ON) {
  51:         error = -EBUSY;
  52:         goto out;
  53: }
  54:  
  55: error = -EINVAL;
  56: if (sscanf(buf, "%u", &val) == 1) {
  57:         if (pm_save_wakeup_count(val))
  58:                 error = n;
  59: }
  60:  
  61:  out:
  62: pm_autosleep_unlock();
  63: return error;
  64: }
  65:  
  66: tr(wakeup_count);

實現很簡單:read時,直接呼叫pm_get_wakeup_count(注意第2個引數);write時,直接呼叫pm_save_wakeup_count(注意使用者空間的wakeup count功能和auto sleep互斥,會在下篇文章解釋原因)。這兩個介面均是wakeup events framework提供的介面,跟著程式碼往下看吧。

4.3 pm_get_wakeup_count

pm_get_wakeup_count的實現如下:

   1: bool pm_get_wakeup_count(unsigned int *count, bool block)
   2: {
   3:         unsigned int cnt, inpr;
   4:  
   5:         if (block) {
   6:                 DEFINE_WAIT(wait);
   7:  
   8:                 for (;;) {
   9:                         prepare_to_wait(&wakeup_count_wait_queue, &wait,
  10:                                         TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
  11:                         split_counters(&cnt, &inpr);
  12:                         if (inpr == 0 || signal_pending(current))
  13:                                 break;
  14:  
  15:                         schedule();
  16:                 }
  17:                 finish_wait(&wakeup_count_wait_queue, &wait);
  18:         }
  19:  
  20:         split_counters(&cnt, &inpr);
  21:         *count = cnt;
  22:         return !inpr;
  23: }

該介面有兩個引數,一個是儲存返回的count值得指標,另一個指示是否block,具體請參考程式碼邏輯:

a)如果block為false,直接讀取registered wakeup events和wakeup events in progress兩個counter值,將registered wakeup events交給第一個引數,並返回wakeup events in progress的狀態(若返回false,說明當前有wakeup events正在處理,不適合suspend)。

b)如果block為true,定義一個等待佇列,等待wakeup events in progress為0,再返回counter。

 

注1:由4.2小節可知,sysfs發起的read動作,block為true,所以如果有正在處理的wakeup events,read程序會阻塞。其它模組(如auto sleep)發起的read,則可能不需要阻塞。

4.4 pm_save_wakeup_count

pm_save_wakeup_count的實現如下:

   1: bool pm_save_wakeup_count(unsigned int count)
   2: {
   3:         unsigned int cnt, inpr;
   4:         unsigned long flags;
   5:  
   6:         events_check_enabled = false;
   7:         spin_lock_irqsave(&events_lock, flags);
   8:         split_counters(&cnt, &inpr);
   9:         if (cnt == count && inpr == 0) {
  10:                 saved_count = count;
  11:                 events_check_enabled = true;
  12:         }
  13:         spin_unlock_irqrestore(&events_lock, flags);
  14:         return events_check_enabled;
  15: }

1)注意這個變數,events_check_enabled,如果它不為真,pm_wakeup_pending介面直接返回false,意味著如果不利用wakeup count功能,suspend過程中不會做任何wakeup events檢查,也就不會進行任何的同步

2)解除當前的registered wakeup events、wakeup events in progress,儲存在變數cnt和inpr中。

3)如果寫入的值和cnt不同(說明讀、寫的過程中產生events),或者inpr不為零(說明有events正在被處理),返回false(說明此時不宜suspend)。

4)否則,events_check_enabled置位(後續的pm_wakeup_pending才會幹活),返回true(可以suspend),並將當前的wakeup count儲存在saved count變數中。

4.5 /sys/power/state

再回憶一下“Linux電源管理(6)_Generic PM之Suspend功能”中suspend的流程,在suspend_enter介面中,suspend前的最後一刻,會呼叫pm_wakeup_pending介面,程式碼如下:

   1: static int suspend_enter(suspend_state_t state, bool *wakeup)
   2: {
   3:     ...
   4:     error = syscore_suspend();
   5:     if (!error) {
   6:         *wakeup = pm_wakeup_pending();
   7:         if (!(suspend_test(TEST_CORE) || *wakeup)) {
   8:                 error = suspend_ops->enter(state);
   9:                 events_check_enabled = false;
  10:         }
  11:         syscore_resume();
  12:     }
  13:     ...
  14: }

在write wakeup_count到呼叫pm_wakeup_pending這一段時間內,wakeup events framework會照常產生wakeup events,因此如果pending返回true,則不能“enter”,終止suspend吧!

注2:wakeup後,會清除events_check_enabled標記。

Linux電源管理(7)_Wakeup events framework”中已經介紹過pm_wakeup_pending了,讓我們再看一遍吧:

   1: bool pm_wakeup_pending(void)
   2: {
   3:         unsigned long flags;
   4:         bool ret = false;
   5:  
   6:         spin_lock_irqsave(&events_lock, flags);
   7:         if (events_check_enabled) {
   8:                 unsigned int cnt, inpr;
   9:  
  10:                 split_counters(&cnt, &inpr);
  11:                 ret = (cnt != saved_count || inpr > 0);
  12:                 events_check_enabled = !ret;
  13:         }
  14:         spin_unlock_irqrestore(&events_lock, flags);
  15:  
  16:         if (ret)
  17:                 print_active_wakeup_sources();
  18:  
  19:         return ret;
  20: }

a)首先會判斷events_check_enabled是否有效,無效直接返回false。有效的話:

b)獲得cnt和inpr,如果cnt不等於saved_count(說明這段時間內有events產生),或者inpr不為0(說明有events正在被處理),返回true(告訴呼叫者,放棄吧,時機不到)。同時清除events_check_enabled的狀態。

c)否則,返回false(放心睡吧),同時保持events_check_enabled的置位狀態(以免pm_wakeup_pending再次呼叫)。

Okay,結束了,等待wakeup吧~~~~
