selftests/ftrace: Fix unique symbol check in kprobe_non_uniq_symbol.tcgrafted
The current regex also matches symbols in modules, which makes the
test fail on s390 where name_show is present only once in the kernel,
but also multiple times in modules:
000001b1401cdc20 t name_show
000001b0c05e6c40 t name_show [mdev]
000001b0c0495f30 t name_show [i2c_core]
Fix this by changing the regular expression to only match the function
name.

SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 +.. include:: <isonum.txt> + +============================= +Suspend/Hibernation Notifiers +============================= + +:Copyright: |copy| 2016 Intel Corporation + +:Author: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com> + + +There are some operations that subsystems or drivers may want to carry out +before hibernation/suspend or after restore/resume, but they require the system +to be fully functional, so the drivers' and subsystems' ``->suspend()`` and +``->resume()`` or even ``->prepare()`` and ``->complete()`` callbacks are not +suitable for this purpose. + +For example, device drivers may want to upload firmware to their devices after +resume/restore, but they cannot do it by calling :c:func:`request_firmware()` +from their ``->resume()`` or ``->complete()`` callback routines (user land +processes are frozen at these points). The solution may be to load the firmware +into memory before processes are frozen and upload it from there in the +``->resume()`` routine. A suspend/hibernation notifier may be used for that. + +Subsystems or drivers having such needs can register suspend notifiers that +will be called upon the following events by the PM core: + +``PM_HIBERNATION_PREPARE`` + The system is going to hibernate, tasks will be frozen immediately. This + is different from ``PM_SUSPEND_PREPARE`` below, because in this case + additional work is done between the notifiers and the invocation of PM + callbacks for the "freeze" transition. + +``PM_POST_HIBERNATION`` + The system memory state has been restored from a hibernation image or an + error occurred during hibernation. Device restore callbacks have been + executed and tasks have been thawed. + +``PM_RESTORE_PREPARE`` + The system is going to restore a hibernation image. If all goes well, + the restored image kernel will issue a ``PM_POST_HIBERNATION`` + notification. + +``PM_POST_RESTORE`` + An error occurred during restore from hibernation. Device restore + callbacks have been executed and tasks have been thawed. + +``PM_SUSPEND_PREPARE`` + The system is preparing for suspend. + +``PM_POST_SUSPEND`` + The system has just resumed or an error occurred during suspend. Device + resume callbacks have been executed and tasks have been thawed. + +It is generally assumed that whatever the notifiers do for +``PM_HIBERNATION_PREPARE``, should be undone for ``PM_POST_HIBERNATION``. +Analogously, operations carried out for ``PM_SUSPEND_PREPARE`` should be +reversed for ``PM_POST_SUSPEND``. + +Moreover, if one of the notifiers fails for the ``PM_HIBERNATION_PREPARE`` or +``PM_SUSPEND_PREPARE`` event, the notifiers that have already succeeded for that +event will be called for ``PM_POST_HIBERNATION`` or ``PM_POST_SUSPEND``, +respectively. + +The hibernation and suspend notifiers are called with :c:data:`pm_mutex` held. +They are defined in the usual way, but their last argument is meaningless (it is +always NULL). + +To register and/or unregister a suspend notifier use +:c:func:`register_pm_notifier()` and :c:func:`unregister_pm_notifier()`, +respectively (both defined in :file:`include/linux/suspend.h`). If you don't +need to unregister the notifier, you can also use the :c:func:`pm_notifier()` +macro defined in :file:`include/linux/suspend.h`. |
