    e1000e: avoid failing the system during pm_suspend · 0a6ad4d9
    Vitaly Lifshits authored
    Occasionally when the system goes into pm_suspend, the suspend might fail
    due to a PHY access error on the network adapter. Previously, this would
    have caused the whole system to fail to go to a low power state.
    An example of this was reported in the following Bugzilla:
    https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=205015
    
    [ 1663.694828] e1000e 0000:00:19.0 eth0: Failed to disable ULP
    [ 1664.731040] asix 2-3:1.0 eth1: link up, 100Mbps, full-duplex, lpa 0xC1E1
    [ 1665.093513] e1000e 0000:00:19.0 eth0: Hardware Error
    [ 1665.596760] e1000e 0000:00:19.0: pci_pm_resume+0x0/0x80 returned 0 after 2975399 usecs
    
    and then the system never recovers from it, and all the following suspend failed due to this
    [22909.393854] PM: pci_pm_suspend(): e1000e_pm_suspend+0x0/0x760 [e1000e] returns -2
    [22909.393858] PM: dpm_run_callback(): pci_pm_suspend+0x0/0x160 returns -2
    [22909.393861] PM: Device 0000:00:1f.6 failed to suspend async: error -2
    
    This can be avoided by changing the return values of __e1000_shutdown and
    e1000e_pm_suspend functions so that they always return 0 (success). This
    is consistent with what other drivers do.
    
    If the e1000e driver encounters a hardware error during suspend, potential
    side effects include slightly higher power draw or non-working wake on
    LAN. This is preferred to a system-level suspend failure, and a warning
    message is written to the system log, so that the user can be aware that
    the LAN controller experienced a problem during suspend.
