[PATCH v2] PM: sleep: Add DPM watchdog to prepare/late/early/noirq/complete phases
From: Mayank Rungta
Date: Wed Sep 09 2026 - 18:52:35 EST
Extend the DPM watchdog to wrap device_prepare, device_suspend_late,
device_suspend_noirq, device_resume_noirq, device_resume_early, and
device_complete callbacks. If a driver hangs during these transitions,
the watchdog will fire and dump a stack trace to help identify the
offending driver.
To prevent false-positive timeouts, the watchdog is set only after
waiting for subordinate (during suspend) and superior (during resume)
devices. With this change, DPM watchdog coverage is extended across all
phases of system sleep transitions.

v2:
- Extend DPM watchdog to device_prepare and device_complete callbacks.
- Update commit subject and description to reflect coverage across all
system sleep phases.
v1:
- Initial version adding DPM watchdog to late/early/noirq phases.
Testing:
- Tested on an ARM64 SoC (Pixel platform running a 6.18-based kernel with
DPM watchdog enabled; Android 6.18 kernel has latest DPM changes
backported).
- Verified hang simulation in device_prepare and device_complete
triggers DPM watchdog panic and stack trace as expected.
