I'm planning on updating, but need to do some writing exercise first. can you please do do this test in a working kernel(kernel w/o "ACPI: EC: GPE storm detected, disabling EC GPE" in dmesg)? $cd /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts $grep . * and attach the result here, this may indicates if there is an actual interrupt storm. Created attachment 16357 [details]
Patch: debug EC GPE
If it's not an interrupt storm, this patch may help us find a more suitable threshold for detecting EC GPE storm.
Justin, please apply the debug patch and attach the dmesg output.

Hope this helps. regards; Hah, valuable info. thanks. This problem is caused by commit fa95ba04e6ba11d71e1b87becd054b38faf546c8. I don't know if we should call it a bug or not as EC poll mode should still work for you, right? Justin, do you get any other problems, like something failed to work anymore, after seeing the " ACPI: EC: GPE storm detected, disabling EC GPE" message? Alexey, maybe it's too aggressive to switch to poll mode if more than 5 EC GPEs are not handled in time?

In theory, we should not get even 2 if the EC is working right. Now it seems that almost all cheap machines are shipped with broken EC and not all the people are happy with the switch to poll mode on these machines. Were could be two solutions -- one is to increase cut-off to say 10, and the other to change from udelay(ACPI_EC_DELAY) to msleep(1). Created attachment 16364 [details]
Use msleep instead of udelay
Please test this patch first
Created attachment 16365 [details]
Increase threshold for stray interrupts
Please also test this one.

Mattock > Sorry for the latency,(I stepped out for a while), I wanted to make sure I have this correct with the patch that you had sent me today do I just apply that one to a fresh copy of ec.c or do I need to apply today's, plus the other two that was sent to me last week? I went ahead and applied the patch from today but only today on a fresh copy of ec.c, I did notice the gpe storm message, as well as Hal having difficulty loading, as well as funkiness from the battery going from plugged-in to unplugged not showing any info in dmesg. from that I was skeptical with keeping that running so I went and put everything back just to be safe. regards; Justin, battery and AC drivers are read-only to HW. They do not change the state of HW in any way, thus it is not very critical to allow them being "broken" or oddly-behaving. regards.

If it functions properly, do you notice any performance difference, say, when accessing battery files?

I have seen this in all the -rc series but not 2.6.25. Now I still get: ACPI: EC: non-query interrupt received, switching to interrupt mode ACPI: EC: GPE storm detected, disabling EC GPE which I didn't have in 2.6.25. 2.6.26-rc6 #1 SMP PREEMPT Acer TravelMate 3012 Doing the grep . /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/* stuff I see all zeros around, but still: gpe_all:6 sci:6 so that are the only lines with a non-zero value. (all with 2.6.26-rc6) Is there more I can provide? Bye Norbert Message "ACPI: EC: GPE storm detected, disabling EC GPE" should appear on all broken hardware, we are not trying to "fix" that.

I pulled the latest git, and applied the patch, on the first try, I made the mistake of changing 5 to 20, i.g. if (atomic_read(&ec->irq_count) > 5 &&, So after putting 20 back to 5, with everything as they should I see this in dmesg: [ 208.352562] ACPI: EC: GPE storm detected, disabling EC GPE [ 208.454844] ACPI: EC: non-query interrupt received, switching to interrupt mode [ 208.532300] ACPI: EC: non-query interrupt received, switching to interrupt mode [ 208.599015] ACPI: EC: non-query interrupt received, switching to interrupt mode [ 244.123340] ACPI: EC: non-query interrupt received, switching to interrupt mode [ 275.941465] ACPI: EC: non-query interrupt received, switching to interrupt mode [ 307.755635] ACPI: EC: non-query interrupt received, switching to interrupt mode [ 339.450494] ACPI: EC: non-query interrupt received, switching to interrupt mode [ 371.562684] ACPI: EC: non-query interrupt received, switching to interrupt mode [ 403.161222] ACPI: EC: non-query interrupt received, switching to interrupt mode [ 408.460630] applesmc: wait status failed: 5 != 4 [ 408.723819] applesmc: wait status failed: c != 8 [ 434.952505] ACPI: EC: non-query interrupt received, switching to interrupt mode maybe changing 5 to 20 is not a bad idea, but then again maybe it is due to not seeing this message right away.

Mattock > Also the state of the A/C adapter is real sketchy after the message is triggered, when unplugging the A/C, the dimmer for the screen does not trigger, on the first or second disconnect, but eventually will, upon plugging the A/C the dimmer will not brighten the screen on some tries, then I noticed pommed was becoming reversed. i.g. unplugging, the screen does not dim, upon plugging in the A/C the screen dims. There is info on the battery state ans so forth in dmesg. I guess setting 20 to 100 will take longer for the GPE storm message to be triggered, which is good in my case, due to not having my system on for long periods of time, but not so good for servers and such that are on for weeks or month's at a time.

setting to UNRESOLVED since per comment #28, as we shipped the msleep(1) patch from comment #13 and we still have a problem in 2.6.26-rc8.

Thanks. > Hello; after a week of getting carried away with other parts of the kernel, I decided to see what the reaction is with unplugging and plugging in the A/C adapter during a gpe storm. With 2.6.26-rc7 it seemed very inconsistent, now with 2.6.26-rc8 I'm seeing right reactions with pommed(i.g. unplugged: screen goes dim, battery info in dmesg etc..) Aside from this everything seems O.K. Justin, Once again, EC in your machine is not conforming to spec, it sends too many interrupts during its activity. Detection for this is new in 2.6.26-rc, so you are expected to see "GPE storm detected" and this is not a bug in Linux, rather it is bug in your machine (which we can only detect and workaround). The only thing we could correct, is that workaround does not make your system less usable than it was without it. So, if there is nothing to complain about beside "GPE storm detected" message, your system works as expected, and there is no bug.

Anyways, If you're saying this is not a bug, then I'm happy with having this closed.

Justin, Darwin SBS issue seems to be big enough for its own bug report. Vegard, the original problem with this bug was that after EC GPE storm was detected (message...), system became less responsive to AC or special keys.

"checking my system for that"; regards; Hello, i googled a bit and found this entry, not sure whether i should post here. I have a similar problem on an Acer Notebook. It's an Acer Aspire 5520 G. I tested some different Kernel versions - 2.6.25.8 is working fine without any problems, although i miss some features of 2.6.26.1 i would really want to use - Anyway, _every_ Kernel version in 2.6.26.* isn't working - The Kernel seems to end in a loop or the Kernel is waiting for something after showing: ACPI: EC: GPE storm detected, disabling EC GPE Anyway, let's give some other _maybe_ helpful information on this: Booting up with framebuffer (vga=773 ... video=vesafb:mtrr:4,ywrap) gives a blank screen - if i press the "power" button on my notebook the screen appears and i see some acpi messages related to pressing the power button. Booting without framebuffer gives no blank screen (vga=normal) the last message i can see is the GPE Storm detected one. I waited 5-10 Minutes, nothing happens. Booting without acpi works - the system boots up. But.. as most things i use are using acpi, i cannot work with the system without acpi enabled. So i switched back to 2.6.25.8 for now. Any further information i could provide to help here? I'm not a kernel hacker, so no idea how i could help ;) Ah by the way, pressing the power button gives some information about a not connected battery - indeed the notebook battery isn't plugged in, don't know whether that's important or not.

One interesting post I had read was with the acer; using polling mode seems to work better than interrupt mode. So from just looking at the issue: the acers work better in polling mode, and the macbook's work better in interrupt mode. aside from this I've been using acpi_osi=Darwin for a while now, without having to touch anything with the kernel. doesn't help me; system isn't booting up with 2.6.26.1 using acpi_osi=Darwin (still the same problem then without) it's hanging after the GPE storm detected disabling .. line On Wed, Aug 6, 2008 at 11:21 AM, <bugme-daemon@bugzilla.kernel.org> wrote: > http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10724 > > > > > > ------- Comment #85 from jean.bruenn@ip-minds.de 2008-08-06 11:21 ------- > doesn't help me; system isn't booting up with 2.6.26.1 using acpi_osi=Darwin > (still the same problem then without) it's hanging after the GPE storm > detected > disabling .. line > > > -- > Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email > ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- > You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. > Hmm..

As a work around acpi_osi=Darwin calms the interrupts down with the battery.(which seems to be the cause of the GPE storm, for some reason or another). The only problem, or complaint if you want to call it that, is when using acpi_osi=Darwin there is no battery info i.g. in a terminal typing "acpi" gives no reading. but I can run the system without having the GPE detector go off. As for using sbs.ko with the "Darwin" option, I seem to have a freeze, once the module is loaded. I was going to try and see if there was a patch to try or revert something, just to see if loading sbs.ko leads to something good. Alexey, do you have an update on the status of this bug? It doesn't look like any regression from 2.6.25 is still tracked here? [if there is an regression can someone please do a bisect to identify the commit that introduced it?]. It sounds more like this was always broken, correct? Also it seems like lots of people start posting unrelated issues in this bug. Folks, please open new bugs for new problems, even if they look similar on the first look. The bugs can be still merged then.

As for any issues I'm seeing two issues 1)something with irq 23 nobody cared, causing me to be unable to login (typing a letter results in the letter being written twice i.g. pressing "z" will result in "zz". (this happens every 10 or so reboots); this is the original post that I had sent a few weeks ago: http://groups.google.com/group/fa.linux.kernel/browse_thread/thread/44deab2bc1ffeac3 2) loading uvcvideo without ift-load i.g. a few days ago I was receiving an error message with ift-load:(havent upgraded ift-load yet, so the issue might already be fixed). usb 5-1: usbfs: USBDEVFS_CONTROL failed cmd ift-load rqt 64 rq 160 len 1 ret -110 (attached is that just for a record) Anyways On a cold boot uvcvideo seems to not find isight.fw, until I start up the system, rmmod uvcvideo and then modprobe uvcvideo, then reboot. then everything is good. Now after plugging in this patch, for some reason I'm having the system freeze, after removing the module and loading again and rebooting.(strange); Overall after applying this patch it seems isight_firmware and uvcvideo need ift-load to work properly.(I just need to do an upgrade with ift-load).

Hmmm after looking at dmesg I'm noticing: ec_intr=non-0 is starting in poll mode if I don't put anything under my boot option I'll start in interrupt mode. I'm having some major issues also, system doesn't boot if acpi is on, passing acpi=off or disabling it in the menuconfig allows the system to boot. I've tried a number of 2.6.26 and 2.6.27 rc's, haven't found a fix yet. System is a HP dual core turion with an Nvidia chipset. George, Your issue is unrelated to this bug, so please either find more appropriate one or create new. Don't post here. Hi, Alexey It seems that there is no mode switch from interrput to polling mode after the patch in comment #95 hits the upstream kernel.Right? Is it reasonable? If on some laptops there is no GPE interrupt confirmation and it can't be switched to polling mode, in such case maybe EC can't work well. Maybe some laptops will be affected by this patch. Is it appropriate that the mode switch is disabled only for some specific laptops? Created attachment 17572 [details]

Do someone have an opportunity to try the debug patch on the 2.6.27-rc4 kernel and see whether the EC GPE storm still exists?

I'll post the results as soon as I see any. regards; I've just tried the EDGE_TRIGGERED -> LEVEL_TRIGGERED patch on 2.6.27-rc5, on Fujitsu-Siemens Esprimo Mobile V5505 laptop. I still get "ACPI: EC: GPE storm detected, disabling EC GPE" on both x86_32 and x86_64: so far as I can tell this patch makes no difference. I've never noticed anything worse than the message itself, so my case is not a very important one. Created attachment 17587 [details]
try the debug patch in which the query_pending bit is cleared after processing EC notification event
Will you please try the debug patch on the latest kernel and see whether the number of ACPI interrupt is increased as fast as before?( cd /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/ ; grep . *)
In this debug patch the query_pending bit is cleared after EC notification event is processed. At the same time the source about detecting EC storm is disabled.
Thanks.

Oops. No, this approach does not change anything visible. There was a patch, where GPE is disabled while query is not services, it helped to reduce number of interrupts by about 3-5 times. >> Will you please try the debug patch on the latest kernel and see whether the >> number of ACPI interrupt is increased as fast as before?( cd >> /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/ ; grep . *) >> In this debug patch the query_pending bit is cleared after EC notification >> event is processed.

But the number of ACPI interrupt won't be increased as fast as before. On some laptops if the Query_pending bit is cleared too early, maybe one EC notification event is processed twice or more.

By "not visible" I mean also that number of interrupts does not change dramatically.

In the current upstream kernel when GPE interrupt is serviced, the GPE is deferred to be enabled again only after the GPE method is fully evaluated.(Including the notification event). Maybe it is also appropriate that the query_pending bit is cleared after EC notification event is processed.(_Qxx method is evaluated). In fact on my laptop the SCI_EVT bit is always set before the _Qxx method is evaluated. If the patch in comment #110 is applied, one EC notification event is processed three times. If the notification event is related with battery, maybe a lot of EC interrupts are at all meaningless. Created attachment 17609 [details]
Patch 1/2 : try the debug patch in which the query_pending bit is cleared after processing EC notification event
Created attachment 17611 [details]
Patch 2/2: try the debug patch in which EC work mode is simplified
Do someone have opportunity to try the attached two debug patches on the latest kernel(2.6.27-rc4/5) and see whether the system is stable?
In the patch 1: The query_pending bit will be cleared only after processing the EC notificatin event.
In the patch 2: The EC will work in polling mode when EC internal register is accessed. The EC GPE handler is only to process the EC notification event.
Thanks.

Add some delay in EC GPE interrupt handler on some bios. (Patch 3)
Maybe the above two patches can't resolve the issue related with EC GPE storm.
Will you please try this patch together with the above two patches on the latest kernel and see whether the system is stable?
Thanks.
Ok, this one is really stupid. By adding delay to interrupt service routine, you halt the system for this time. Please stop if you don't understand what you are doing... Created attachment 17619 [details]
cleaner storm detection, lower lattencies
To keep you busy, here is rewrite of EC transaction mechanism, should allow faster transaction and lower latencies for queries. Also GPE is not disabled completely, so no queries are lost (even fast ones).
(In reply to comment #120) > Created an attachment (id=17619) [details] > cleaner storm detection, lower lattencies I tested the patch with 2.6.27-rc5 and didn't experience any GPE storm problems on the EeePC so far.

Ive tried all three of the patches attached is dmesg of the different boot params I used. overall I think I'm still seeing the same issue with the battery (lots of interrupts with acpi_osi=Linux option); When using this option the only unstable part I see is with unpluggin the A/C "takes a few seconds to dim, and become bright". noticed also a new avc's message from SELinux. Hi, Justin Thanks for the test. There also exist a lot of interrupts even when reading the battery info on most laptops.(Maybe about 100 EC GPE interrupts will be triggered). On your laptop the battery info is obtained by using SMBUS controller based on EC. Even when there is no EC GPE storm, about 1000 EC GPE interrupts will be triggered once reading the battery info. At the same time several EC GPE interrupts will be triggered on your laptops although the EC pulse interrupt is triggered only once. In such case the situation will become more . Does the system work well although lots of EC interrupts are triggered? What does it mean that with unpluggin the A/C it will takes a few seconds to dim, and become bright? From the acpidump it seems that the brightness is not controlled by ACPI video driver(there is no _BCL/_BQC_/_BCM object in DSDT table). Maybe it is controlled by BIOS. In such case whether it will take longer time to dim is not controlled by OS. Thanks. Hi, Justin Thanks for the test.

(thats all); in any case I don't think pommed is as big of an issue as for the other posts I was reading. In my case I think I need to look at the dsdt and see if I can find anything in there that might be of use. Hi, Justin Is the system stable after applying the patches in comment #116,117,118? Understand what you said. When unplugging the A/C adapter, maybe the user space application called pommed will check the status of the battery and change the brightness of backlight. In such case it will take more time to read the info of the battery. Can you confirm whether the battery info is obtained again after unplugging AC adapter?( by checking whether the number of EC GPE interrupts are increased very fast. cd /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts; grep . *) Maybe it will be very quick if the pommed application changes the brightness of backlight only according to the status of AC adapter. Thanks. Oh shit, I just did Git-reset --hard origin Git-pull I'll have to do that again, to look at the Interrupts. Although I did glance And saw the interrupt was at 1913 Didn't see how many per second or minute(I'll get back to you with that); Now, when looking at my other Linux box(dell inspiron 1200),even though Hardware is different, Im seeing 1 Interrupt coming from gpe1D and gpe1C should this be similar with A MacBook? Or is this something With sbs.ko sbshc.ko? That is loading With the dell box. justin P.

This is related with sbs.ko. In fact on the macbootk laptop it is unnecessary to load SBS driver again(sbs.ko, sbshc.ko). From the acpidump it seems that the battery info is obtained by using the SMbus controller(this is realized in AML code). If the sbs driver is loaded, maybe the sbs driver will register another battery device, which is the same as the device registered by battery driver. Please don't load the sbs driver on the macbook laptop.

From looking at the info the interrupt number could be high when using the patch due to the gpe storm going off, as opposed to the gpe storm not going off in that mode(at least thats what I can see from here); As for watching the interrupt, using: watch /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/grep . * gave me a nice perspective, when under acpi_osi=Linux option the number jumps 2X's by 100 +- and nothing for around 30 +- seconds, and then jumps up after a short break. I should try and post you the results of grep .* when the gpe storm is detected and when it isn't Justin, Could you please also test the patch from comment #120? On a NEC Versa M370, 116+117 did not help, with 120 it looks fine. I did not try 118 yet.

Thanks a lot. I have tested it on Asus EeePC model 701. The reaction on the Eee's special keys got much quicker and a *lot* more stable. The system is very usable with this version now. (It was very unstable before.) If I insist *really* hard I am still able to block reaction to these special keys by repeatedly sending a lot of these key events (by autorepeat). I cannot find any error messages after that event. It looks to me as if the hardware might do that on his own and the kernel might not even see it. Is there anything I can do to debug the situation? Regarding our second problem with ec.c, the bogus thermal shutdowns during boot process (showing on some EeePC models) the version you sent me seems rock stable.
