Goal:
• Processing until the application reaches to main()– Transfer of image– Dynamic linking– Global constructors
• IPC Processing among applications for the whole system running

Current Status:• Ported Suspend2 onto ARM
– Posted on Suspend2 ML– To be incorporated in next release!

Suspend2 Evaluation:• Linux 2.6.14 + Suspend2-2.2-rc9• Hibernate from ash login state• Used printk time of kernel to measure time
– Baseline is the timimg when linux starts up from uboot
– In make menuconfig• Kernel hacking --->
[ ] Show timing information on printks– http://tree.celinuxforum.org/CelfPubWiki/PrintkTimes
2005/Nov/25 JapanTechnicalJamboree5 8
Suspend2 Results:• Normal Start up
– 7.618 [sec]
• Suspend2 (lzf on)– 22.492 [sec]– 12.371 MB 7.450 MB (compression rate
39%)
• Suspend2 (lzf off)– 17.99 [sec]
Suspend2 process start at: 4.402 [sec]
Diff of startup time: 20%, 4.50 [sec]
2005/Nov/25 JapanTechnicalJamboree5 9
swsusp Evaluation:• Linux 2.6.11
• Used printk time of kernel to measure time– Clock starts when linux starts up from uboot– In make menuconfig
• Kernel hacking ---> [ ] Show timing information on printks

swsusp Results:• Normal startup
– 7.676 [sec]
• swsusp (ash)– 9.52 [sec]– Image: 6.38 MB
• swsusp (mplayer)– 13.910 [sec]– Image: 10.24 MB
(swsusp process start at: 2.174 [sec])

Swsusp/suspend2 Comparison:• Not a strict comparison as Linux versions are
not the same…– Swsusp/linux2.6.11: image is small, and startup is
fast– Suspend2/linux2.6.14: LZF compression of image
is effective, but tradeoff with startup time
• Suspend2-2.2 is not stable yet, as it is RC…
2005/Nov/25 JapanTechnicalJamboree5 12
Swsusp/suspend2 Comparison: (cont.)• Image size/processing time
– Suspend2: 925KB/sec– swsusp: 889KB/sec
2005/Nov/25 JapanTechnicalJamboree5 13
Swsusp3:• Author of swsusp, Pavel, has extended swsusp
with encryption, compression, UI etc.• The goal is to minimize the change to kernel
by most of processing done in the user land• http://lists.osdl.org/pipermail/linux-pm/2005-September/001312.html• http://lists.osdl.org/pipermail/linux-pm/2005-November/001535.html• http://lists.osdl.org/pipermail/linux-pm/2005-November/001562.html

Swsusp3: (ML digests)• Want to integrate kernel part into around 2.6.16
(Pavel)• If integrated, RH/FC kernel would fork. Swsusp3
uses /dev/mem, but they restrict /dev/mem to prevent rootkit (Dave Jones)
…(hot discussion continues on swsusp3 vs security)• Encryption/compression in userland is more
intuitive (Rafael J. WysockiRafael J. Wysocki )
2005/Nov/25 JapanTechnicalJamboree5 15
Swsusp3: (ML digests (cont.))
• Those functions are already in suspend2. Duplicated effort (Dumitru Ciobarcianu )
• It is different to implement in kernel. Can’t believe Pavel? Nigel knows what he should do to work together. (Greg K-H)
• I can’t understand why they think userland is the right place. (Nigel)
2005/Nov/25 JapanTechnicalJamboree5 16
Swsusp3: (ML digests (cont.))• Userland swsusp changes only 150 lines or
so in kernel (Pavel)
• Present Nigel’s code won’t be mainlined. (Greg K-H)
• (Hot discussion continues)
