Example: dev_set_mtu_ext() right and also: - netlink - which you've hacked already - 8021q: vlan_dev_ioctl/vlan_dev_neigh_setup/vlan_add_rx_filter_info/vlan_kill_rx_filter_info > Same applies for __dev_set_rx_mode(). Therefore I wondered whether cpsw_ndo_set_rx_mode() > - that does not include runtime-resuming the device - may be called when device is > runtime-suspended, e.g. if interface is up, but link is down. CPSW doesn't manage PM runtime in link status handler, as it has only on/off state and off state can cause full context loss restore of which is expensive and hard to implement. And for most of netdev drivers no aggressive PM runtime is implemented exactly because of that (mac/vlan/fdb/mdb/...). Common patterns: (a) .probe -get .remove -put (b) .probe -get -put .open -get .close -put .protect places which may be called when netif is down The CPSW follows (b) and so cpsw_ndo_set_rx_mode() can't be called when when device is runtime-suspended. I assume, some hw like PCI, can have more PM states and in some of them keep HW context intact. > >>> Wouldn't we then need RPM ops for the parent (e.g. PCI) and for netdev->dev? >> >> No. as I know -  netdev->dev can be declared as pm_runtime_no_callbacks(&adap->dev); >> I2C adapter might be a good example to check. >> >>> E.g. the parent runtime-resume can be triggered by a PCI PME, then it would >>> have to resume netdev->dev. >>> >>>> But, to be honest, I'm not sure adding PM runtime manipulation to the net core is a good idea - >>> >>> The TI CPSW driver runtime-resumes the device in begin ethtool op and suspends >>> it in complete.

I'm not saying this is a good thing, > but obviously it doesn't cause relevant harm. this is completely wrong assumption as PM errors cause silent stuck, undefined behavior or dumps (sometimes delayed) which is terribly hard to root cause. yes. many drivers do not check, but over last few years more and more strict policies applied to avoid that and in many case no checking return code - is red flag and patch reject. Don't like that phrase ;), but "It doesn't mean that incorrect code has to be copy-pasted all over the places" this is correct get pattern for get: ret = pm_runtime_get_sync(&pdev->dev); if (ret < 0) { pm_runtime_put_noidle(&pdev->dev); return ret; } My strong opinion - PM runtime return code must be checked. - get rid of netif_device_detach() in r8169 by the way, have you tried below test with your driver (not sure how it works for you): .rtl_open - pm_runtime_get_sync - pm_runtime_put_sync - usage_count == 0 .r8169_phylink_handler - pm_request_resume - why async? still usage_count == 0 .some ethtool request to go through dev_ethtool() - pm_runtime_get_sync - pm_runtime_put - async, usage_count == 0 ^ would not it put r8169 in runtime-suspended state while link is still UP? > >> >> >>> >>>> >>>> >>>> The TI CPSW driver may also be placed in non reachable state when netdev is closed (and even lose context), >>>> but we do not use netif_device_detach() (so netdev is accessible through netdev_ops/ethtool_ops), >>>> but instead wake up device by runtime PM for allowed operations or just save requested configuration which >>>> is applied at netdev->open() time then. >>>> I feel that using netif_device_detach() in PM runtime sounds like a too heavy approach ;) >>>> >>> That's not a rare pattern when suspending or runtime-suspending to prevent different types >>> of access to a not accessible device.
