What are you trying to do here?

What are you trying to do here? The intention of waitqeue is to make the suspend process really wait till the ELM module finishes current activity. Although this type of protection already achieved in mtd layer using nand_suspend(), this one is particularly required for ELM module to really make sure that *any pending* corrections to finish really before gone to suspend. If suspend activity initiated and NAND driver requested service of ELM module for error correction, then suspend activity has to wait till (info->idle == false), so that ELM module finishes activity. I can think of adding different states to ELM module and take action. I will add following states. RUNNING SUSPEND Thanks Avinash >

I don't think you understand what's going on with the above, and why the above is completely ineffective. 1. Your wait queue head is declared on stack, and there's no references to it outside of this function. So _nothing_ can activate the wait queue. 2. You're not changing the current thread's status away from TASK_RUNNING, so schedule() will either return immediately or it will schedule another task if it's time for this one to be preempted. In other words, the above can be rewritten as: while (info->idle) schedule(); and it will still have the same effect. Now, if you want to be kinder to the system, then you should use a wait queue properly. Put the waitqueue head in struct elm_info. Use wait_event() here. And call wake_up() where you set info->idle to false.

It seems the entire mechanism of ELM module state check is not required. The ELM suspend procedure initiated only after the current MTD transaction finishes and is ensured in MTD class driver. So I can simply disable ELM module in suspend without any check. Thanks Avinash >

In low power modes of AM335X platforms, peripherals power is cut off. This patch supports low power sleep transition support for ELM driver.
