Brian Norris 4828149214 PCI/PM: Prevent runtime suspend until devices are fully initialized 
[ Upstream commit 51c0996dad ]

Previously, it was possible for a PCI device to be runtime-suspended before
it was fully initialized. When that happened, the suspend process could
save invalid device state, for example, before BAR assignment. Restoring
the invalid state during resume may leave the device non-functional.

Prevent runtime suspend for PCI devices until they are fully initialized by
deferring pm_runtime_enable().

More details on how exactly this may occur:

  1. PCI device is created by pci_scan_slot() or similar

  2. As part of pci_scan_slot(), pci_pm_init() puts the device in D0 and
     prevents runtime suspend prevented via pm_runtime_forbid()

  3. pci_device_add() adds the underlying 'struct device' via device_add(),
     which means user space can allow runtime suspend, e.g.,

       echo auto > /sys/bus/pci/devices/.../power/control

  4. PCI device receives BAR configuration
     (pci_assign_unassigned_bus_resources(), etc.)

  5. pci_bus_add_device() applies final fixups, saves device state, and
     tries to attach a driver

The device may potentially be suspended between #3 and #5, so this is racy
with user space (udev or similar).

Many PCI devices are enumerated at subsys_initcall time and so will not
race with user space, but devices created later by hotplug or modular
pwrctrl or host controller drivers are susceptible to this race.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
