pci_dev_need_resume(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💖 NAME 💖

pci_dev_need_resume — the vibe check that tells you whether this device actually needs to be resumed. Like, do we gotta wake it up or is it fine? ✨

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

bool pci_dev_need_resume (struct pci_dev *pci_dev );

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

  • pci_dev — the device you're checking, bestie. That's the one we're asking about. 👑

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So this function returns 'true' when the answer is "yeah, we gotta resume it" — and that happens in any of these three situations, okay? Listen up:

  • the device is not runtime-suspended, or
  • it has to be reconfigured because of a wakeup settings difference between system suspend and runtime suspend, or
  • the current power state of it just isn't suitable for the upcoming (system-wide) transition.
And if it's 'true', that's your sign — the device needs the resume treatment. No cap. 💅

🦋 SEE ALSO 🦋

okay so first up, the kernel file this all lives in: ./drivers/pci/pci.c

And now, the friend group. This is a lot of friends. Buckle up 🎢💜

Yeah. All of them. We're not skipping a single one, that's the rule 💅✨
