In 2010, runtime power management support was implemented in the SCSI
core. The description of patch "[SCSI] implement runtime Power
Management" mentions that the sg driver is skipped but not why. This
patch enables runtime power management even if an instance of the sg
driver is held open. Enabling runtime PM for the sg driver is safe
because all interactions of the sg driver with the SCSI device pass
through the block layer (blk_execute_rq_nowait()) and the block layer
already supports runtime PM.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
