* USB: power management documentation updateAlan Stern2009-12-231-26/+15
| | | | | | | | | | This patch (as1313) updates the documentation concerning USB power management. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
* USB: prepare for changover to Runtime PM frameworkAlan Stern2009-12-111-32/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch (as1303) revises the USB Power Management infrastructure to make it compatible with the new driver-model Runtime PM framework: Drivers are no longer allowed to access intf->pm_usage_cnt directly; the PM framework manages its own usage counters. usb_autopm_set_interface() is eliminated, because it directly sets intf->pm_usage_cnt. usb_autopm_enable() and usb_autopm_disable() are eliminated, because they call usb_autopm_set_interface(). usb_autopm_get_interface_no_resume() and usb_autopm_put_interface_no_suspend() are added. They correspond to pm_runtime_get_noresume() and pm_runtime_put_noidle() in the PM framework. The power/level attribute no longer accepts "suspend", only "on" and "auto". The PM framework doesn't allow devices to be forced into a suspended mode. The hub driver contains the only code that violates the new guidelines. It is updated to use the new interface routines instead. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
* USB: remove the auto_pm flagAlan Stern2009-12-111-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | This patch (as1302) removes the auto_pm flag from struct usb_device. The flag's only purpose was to distinguish between autosuspends and external suspends, but that information is now available in the pm_message_t argument passed to suspend methods.

* USB: add asynchronous autosuspend/autoresume supportAlan Stern2009-01-071-5/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | This patch (as1160b) adds support routines for asynchronous autosuspend and autoresume, with accompanying documentation updates. There already are several potential users of this interface, and others are likely to arise as autosuspend support becomes more widespread.

* USB: Fix doc for usb_autopm_enableGeoff Levand2008-10-171-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | Correct errors in the descriptions for usb_autopm_enable and usb_autopm_disable in the USB PM doc. Signed-off-by: Geoff Levand <geoff@infradead.org> Acked-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
* USB: update to DocumentationOliver Neukum2008-08-131-1/+6
| | | | | | | | this mentions a new deadlock due to advanced power management. Signed-off-by: Oliver Neukum <oneukum@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
* USB: power-management documenation updateAlan Stern2007-11-281-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch (as1014) was partly written by Tilman Schmidt. It clarifies the USB power-management documentation by explaining that when a disconnect occurs, a suspend method call might not be followed by either a resume or a reset_resume call.

* USB: documentation for USB power managementAlan Stern2007-10-121-0/+517
This patch (as998) adds documentation on how USB power management works and how to use it. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
