Driver Flags for Power Management + +The PM core allows device drivers to set flags that influence the handling of +power management for the devices by the core itself and by middle layer code +including the PCI bus type. The flags should be set once at the driver probe +time with the help of the dev_pm_set_driver_flags() function and they should not +be updated directly afterwards. + +The DPM_FLAG_NEVER_SKIP flag prevents the PM core from using the direct-complete +mechanism allowing device suspend/resume callbacks to be skipped if the device +is in runtime suspend when the system suspend starts. That also affects all of +the ancestors of the device, so this flag should only be used if absolutely +necessary. + +The DPM_FLAG_SMART_PREPARE flag instructs the PCI bus type to only return a +positive value from pci_pm_prepare() if the ->prepare callback provided by the +driver of the device returns a positive value. That allows the driver to opt +out from using the direct-complete mechanism dynamically. + +The DPM_FLAG_SMART_SUSPEND flag tells the PCI bus type that from the driver's +perspective the device can be safely left in runtime suspend during system +suspend. That causes pci_pm_suspend(), pci_pm_freeze() and pci_pm_poweroff() +to skip resuming the device from runtime suspend unless there are PCI-specific +reasons for doing that. Also, it causes pci_pm_suspend_late/noirq(), +pci_pm_freeze_late/noirq() and pci_pm_poweroff_late/noirq() to return early +if the device remains in runtime suspend in the beginning of the "late" phase +of the system-wide transition under way. Moreover, if the device is in +runtime suspend in pci_pm_resume_noirq() or pci_pm_restore_noirq(), its runtime +power management status will be changed to "active" (as it is going to be put +into D0 going forward), but if it is in runtime suspend in pci_pm_thaw_noirq(), +the function will set the power.direct_complete flag for it (to make the PM core +skip the subsequent "thaw" callbacks for it) and return. + 3.2.
