In 65f63384 "xen: improve error handling in do_suspend" I said: - xs_suspend()/xs_resume() and dpm_suspend_noirq()/dpm_resume_noirq() were not nested in the obvious way. and changed the ordering of the calls as so: BEFORE AFTER xs_suspend dpm_suspend_noirq dpm_suspend_noirq xs_suspend *SUSPEND* *SUSPEND* dpm_resume_noirq dpm_resume_noirq xs_resume xs_resume Clearly this is not an improvement and I was talking rubbish. In particular the new ordering is susceptible to a hang if a xenstore write is in progress at the point at which the suspend kicks in. When the suspend process calls xs_suspend it tries to take the request_mutex but if a write is in progress it could be looping in xenbus_xs.c:read_reply() waiting for something to arrive on &xs_state.reply_list while holding the request_mutex (taken in the caller of read_reply). However if we have done dpm_suspend_noirq before xs_suspend then we won't get any more xenstore interrupts and process_msg() will never be woken up to add anything to the reply_list. Fix this by calling xs_suspend before dpm_suspend_noirq. If dpm_suspend_noirq fails then make sure we go through the xs_suspend_cancel() code path.
