Currently, when we are trying to get the power state of an acpi device,
we will do the following:
If device is not power manageable, init its power state as its parent or
if it does not have a parent, init as D0;
If device is power manageable, evaluate _PSC and then refine with
acpi_power_get_inferred_state.

But there exist some devices with _PSx defined, but no _PSC or _PRx.
It is power manageable, but the above method to get power state does
not cover this case and its power state will be UNKNOWN(255).

So change the check of power manageable to whether _PSC and _PRx
defined.

Applied to the linux-next branch of the linux-pm.git tree.

I think it should go to -stable too and therefore it would be good to have
it in v3.6, so I'd like to push it to Linus for -rc5, if Len has no objections.

Thanks,
Rafael

On a second thought, perhaps the initial power state of those devices
_should_ be "unknown", hmm?

After all, we don't know what power state the device is in.

Is there any practical user-visible problem this causes to happen?

Agree here but I think this is a safe assumption that on initial system
boot, all devices should be at D0. We have already assumed this fact if
the device is not power manageable and has no parent.

And this patch just changed the condition to not judging if power
manageable but if it has _PSC or _PRx, since we will use that to know
the device's power state, so I think using _PSC or _PRx as the
condition check is more precise.

Yes, on a test system, when I try to put a device into D3 cold and ACPI
will complain that I can't due to its parent is in a even lower power
state UNKNOWN(255), this parent device is power manageable but has no
_PSC and _PRx defined.

Thanks,
Aaron

That is mandated by the spec, though.

It is not clear if we can assume anything about the initial power states
of devices having _PSx defined if they cannot be determined through
_PSC or power resources.

Perhaps we can force _PS0 for such devices to start with, so that we know
for sure that the initial state is D0?

Sounds good, I'll update the patch, thanks for the advice.
