Initializing accounting_timestamp to something different from 0 during
pm_runtime_init() doesn't make sense and put useless ordering constraint between
timekeeping_init() and pm_runtime_init().
PM runtime should start accounting time only when it is enable and discard
the period when disabled.
Set accounting_timestamp to now when enabling PM runtime.

note that whatever is done before enabling pm runtime, this will be
overwritten during the enablement.
I can add a clean up patch but this behavior is already there with jiffies.

Or do you think that update_pm_runtime_accounting can be called before
timekeeping_init() ?

yes probably

So the time in system suspended will not be accounted

I thought that everything was already done for jiffies too. As soon as
pm runtime is disable, we can't really account this time to
suspended_time or active_time because we don't have control anymore

I think that we don't need any additional changes for
pm_runtime_enable because we just init the accounting_timestamp and
there is no active or suspend runtime to account yet
For pm_runtime_disable(), I thought that everything was already there
otherwise it means that we already didn't account the time correctly.
I will have a deeper look at that

Right. After this patch, but the original code seems wrong, doesn't it?

That would be great, to get this sorted out.

Right. But, I am not sure the accounting is correctly done.

Correct.

However, my point is that during system suspend, sooner or later we
end up disabling runtime PM. Up until that point, we should account
for, but it seems like we don't do that correctly. As instead, we just
keep the old accounting timestamp during system suspend (until someone
changes the runtime PM status, but there is now guarantee that
happens).

Right, after a second thought, this makes sense.

Great!

I think the accounting is simply based upon that the "time" is stopped
during system suspend and thus also the accounting.

Although, as the header of $subject patch indicates, we want to move
to a well defined situation. Therefore it sounds to me that we need to
care about accounting while disabling runtime PM.

Anyway, let's see what you find out from your deeper look. :-)
