Re: [Xen-devel] Re: [PATCH] xen: register timer interrupt with IRQF_TIMER



Hi,

Ok, sorry didn not notice that. my domU kernels are quite small, they dont contain anything that is not necessary and since power management options were not necessary on Xen 3.4 I did not enable them on unstable either. Gonna now compile new domU kernels and test again.

Thanks.

Hi,

This is not still working, when I try to save a domain:

file:

root@xen:/# du -h db.save
64K     db.save

domU console.

Ignoring shutdown request: suspend

As I said before - enable CONFIG_PM_SLEEP, you won't get anywhere
without it.

This appears to have been broken since after 2.6.29 sometime (I see
failures with 2.6.30). I suspect this commit, or one related to it, made
IRQF_TIMER a hard requirement:

PM: Introduce functions for suspending and resuming device interrupts Introduce helper functions allowing us to prevent device drivers from
            getting any interrupts (without disabling interrupts on the CPU)
            during suspend (or hibernation) and to make them start to receive
            interrupts again during the subsequent resume.  These functions 
make it
            possible to keep timer interrupts enabled while the "late" suspend 
and
            "early" resume callbacks provided by device drivers are being
            executed.  In turn, this allows device drivers' "late" suspend and
            "early" resume callbacks to sleep, execute ACPI callbacks etc.
The functions introduced here will be used to rework the handling of
            interrupts during suspend (hibernation) and resume.  Namely,
            interrupts will only be disabled on the CPU right before suspending
            sysdevs, while device drivers will be prevented from receiving
            interrupts, with the help of the new helper function, before their
            "late" suspend callbacks run (and analogously during resume).

Ian.
