[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 1/3] PM: make VT switching to the suspend console optional v3

Jesse Barnes jbarnes at virtuousgeek.org
Mon Feb 4 14:37:20 CET 2013


KMS drivers can potentially restore the display configuration without
userspace help.  Such drivers can can call a new funciton,
pm_vt_switch_required(false) if they support this feature.  In that
case, the PM layer won't VT switch to the suspend console at suspend
time and then back to the original VT on resume, but rather leave things
alone for a nicer looking suspend and resume sequence.

v2: make a function so we can handle multiple drivers (Alan)
v3: use a list to track device requests (Rafael)
