Date: Sat, 05 Jun 2010 10:20:55 +1000 From: Nigel Cunningham <ncunningham@...a.org.au> To: Pavel Machek <pavel@....cz> CC: pm list <linux-pm@...ts.linux-foundation.org>, LKML <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org>, TuxOnIce-devel <tuxonice-devel@...onice.net> Subject: Re: [linux-pm] [SUSPECTED SPAM] Re: Proposal for a new algorithm for reading & writing a hibernation image. Hi again. As I think about this more, I reckon we could run into problems at resume time with reloading the image. Even if some bits aren't modified as we're writing the image, they still might need to be atomically restored. If we make the atomic restore part too small, we might not be able to do that. So perhaps the best thing would be to stick with the way TuxOnIce splits the image at the moment (page cache / process pages vs 'rest'), but using this faulting mechanism to ensure we do get all the pages that are changed while writing the first part of the image.
