[PATCH v4] kernel: Add support for power-off handler call chain

From: Guenter Roeck
Date: Tue Oct 28 2014 - 13:11:21 EST


Various drivers implement architecture and/or device specific means to
power off the system. For the most part, those drivers set the global
variable pm_power_off to point to a function within the driver.

This mechanism has a number of drawbacks. Typically only one scheme
to remove power is supported (at least if pm_power_off is used).
At least in theory there can be multiple means remove power, some of
which may be less desirable. For example, some mechanisms may only
power off the CPU or the CPU card, while another may power off the
entire system. Others may really just execute a restart sequence
or drop into the ROM monitor. Using pm_power_off can also be racy
if the function pointer is set from a driver built as module, as the
driver may be in the process of being unloaded when pm_power_off is
called. If there are multiple power-off handlers in the system, removing
a module with such a handler may inadvertently reset the pointer to
pm_power_off to NULL, leaving the system with no means to remove power.

Introduce a system power-off handler call chain to solve the described
problems. This call chain is expected to be executed from the architecture
specific machine_power_off() function. Drivers and architeceture code
providing system power-off functionality are expected to register with
this call chain. When registering a power-off handler, callers can
provide a priority to control power-off handler execution sequence
and thus ensure that the power-off handler with the optimal capabilities
to remove power for a given system is called first.

Without agreement on this patch it does not make sense to keep going
with the rest of the series, so I won't submit the rest of the series
anymore until this patch has been accepted.

Tested with acpi power-off handler (patch 34/47 of original series)
with adjustments made for the new version of this patch.

v4:
- Do not use notifiers but internal functions and data structures to manage
the list of power-off handlers. Drop unused parameters from callbacks, and
make the power-off function type void.
Code to manage and walk the list of callbacks is derived from notifier.c.
v3:
- Rename new file to power_off_handler.c
- Replace poweroff in all newly introduced variables and in text
with power_off or power-off as appropriate
- Replace POWEROFF_PRIORITY_xxx with POWER_OFF_PRIORITY_xxx
- Execute power-off handlers without any locks held
v2:
- poweroff -> power_off
- Add defines for default priorities
- Use raw notifiers protected by spinlocks instead of atomic notifiers
- Add register_poweroff_handler_simple
- Add devm_register_power_off_handler
