Hi all
I notice we have hibernation.c in arm/kernel, however, I don't find it in arm64. Does it mean arm64 do not support hibernation/suspend-to-disk function?
Correct. arm64 is a separate architecture and will need to implement something similar to SHA 603fb42a66499ab353466c7afa3d38beea20a8a9.
I tried some path to search the reason, but found nothing, they all say arm64 has the backward compatibility. So I send this email to the community and hope to get the reason. Thanks!
I ported the arm hibernation.c to arm64/kernel(with LP64), but failed in a strange way. When I do resume, the arch_restore_image() get a page_fault when it calls the copy_page(), like:
I'm afraid I can't help with the memory management aspects of arm64 but you've cc'ed the right people who'd know.
"Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 0xffffffbc055c3fa8" I'm sure the copy_page()'s parameters is in the memory area, why and how I get the strange address 0xffffffbc055c3fa8?
