Subject: [PATCH] Make libata not powerdown drivers on PM_EVENT_FREEZE.

Hi.

At the moment libata doesn't pass pm_message_t down ata_device_suspend.
This causes drives to be powered down when we just want a freeze,
causing unnecessary wear and tear. This patch gets pm_message_t passed
down so that it can be used to determine whether to power down the
drive.

Prepared against git at the time of writing. Please apply.

Does this explain http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6264 ?

This might be 2.6.16.1 material - how irritating is it?

Yes, it does.

Very. It extends the time to write the image, but as mentioned above, I'm more
concerned by the fact that (assuming I understand correctly), it's using up
the limited number of power cycles a drive can handle.

Nigel

Eh this looks odd, you are forgetting to add pm_message_t state as an
extra argument to that function.

Apart from that, patch looks good. It should definitely be included
asap.

Good catch! Fixed, will resend.

I'll put this into the queue for review.

As the top of each source file requests, please CC
[email protected] and myself on libata changes.

I'd say patch is okay for mainline, but not worth it for 2.6.16.1 ---
we have lived with similar problem for quite a long time for PATA.
