Bug 12457

Summary:	IBM X40 laptop does no longer resume
Product:	Drivers	Reporter:	Daniel Vetter (daniel)
Component:	USB	Assignee:	Greg Kroah-Hartman (greg)
Status:	RESOLVED DUPLICATE
Severity:	normal	CC:	stern
Priority:	P1
Hardware:	All
OS:	Linux
Kernel Version:	2.6.29-rc1	Subsystem:
Regression:	Yes	Bisected commit-id:
Attachments:	full dmesg of the last working rev with a suspend/resume cycle

Description Daniel Vetter 2009-01-16 01:52:37 UTC

Latest working kernel version:2.6.28
Distribution: Debian unstable x86 32bit
Hardware Environment: Thinkpad X40 1.5GB mem, 1.2GHz Pentium M
Software Environment: Using the debian hibernate scripts.

When trying to resume from suspend-to-ram (via opening the lid), the system hangs after turning on the cpu fan and the display backlight. The suspend-indicator-led still shines. System is totally unresponsive, not even SysRq can reboot it. But vga console seems to work, at least I can see the blinking cursor. The only way to get out is to hold the power button for a few secs.

git bisect points to:

    USB: fix up suspend and resume for PCI host controllers

I'll now test whether reverting this commit helps. btw, there's nothing connected to the usb bus besides the integrated bluetooth. Turning this off (ie. disconnecting via firmwire-controlled keys) doesn't change anything in the results.

I've just tested v2.6.29-rc1-224-ga652504 with a0d4922da2e4c reverted. Worked flawless for a few suspend/resume cycles. So bisecting has really found the culprit.

This bug report should be rejected as a duplicate of Bug #12422 (although the commentary in that report is not particularly useful -- see the email thread about it on LKML).

The suggested fix is here:

Fix confirmed and bug marked as a duplicate like suggested. Thanks Alan for the pointer (I only looked in the usb section of bz for other reports, because from my pov it was clearly a usb problem).
