[PATCH] PM / runtime: Drop usage count for suppliers at device link removal

From: Ulf Hansson
Date: Thu May 24 2018 - 03:41:00 EST


In the case consumer device is runtime resumed, while the link to the
supplier is removed, the earlier call to pm_runtime_get_sync() made from
rpm_get_suppliers() does not get properly balanced with a corresponding
call to pm_runtime_put(). This leads to that suppliers remains to be
runtime resumed forever, while they don't need to.

Let's fix the behaviour by calling rpm_put_suppliers() when dropping a
device link. Not that, since rpm_put_suppliers() checks the
link->rpm_active flag, we can correctly avoid to call pm_runtime_put() in
cases when we shouldn't.

Rafael, I am not sure if this is safe from locking point of view. The device
link write lock has been taken when pm_runtime_drop_link() is called, hence I
assume calling rpm_put_suppliers() should be fine!? If not, can you please
advise how to change?

Kind regards
Uffe
