Here's a piece from my system log, when I did "apm --suspend". The usb_device_suspend/resume messages are things I added for debugging.

That's progress ... last time I tried APM on 2.6 it failed horribly.
(This was after working fine until recently.)


Why was this routine called twice? (Don't be fooled by the timestamps; I think the "suspend D4 --> D3" message was created during the suspend but not read by syslogd until after the resume.)

That's happened for as long as I remember (2.4 also).
Still seems buglike to me, maybe 2.6 will finally squish it...

Why doesn't usb_hcd_pci_resume() log a similar message when it is called?
A simple oversight?

You mean, why didn't it announce its first resume? Basically, yes.

Why was the host controller suspended _before_ its child USB devices?

Seems buglike to me, with the first call being wrong (before the
children were suspended) and the second being right (after).

And why was it woken up twice?

The converse of the "suspended-twice" problem: first call right,
second call (after children) wrong.
