Bug 202679

Created attachment 281343 [details]
dmesg from failed suspend attempt with 4.20.6 and wifi and LTE disabled

Starting with kernel 4.19 my Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon 5th fails to suspend to RAM.
When closing the lid or executing "systemctl suspend" the screen goes black and the status led starts to blink rapidly (just like when power is plugged in).
The keyboard lights can still be toggled using Fn+space, so the firmware appears to be (partly) alive.

When I execute
> echo core > /sys/power/pm_test
or
> echo processors > /sys/power/pm_test
and then
> echo mem > /sys/power/state
the system immediately goes blank and freezes just like when I really try to activate suspend.

If I try to execute
# chcpu -d 1,2,3
or
# echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
the command blocks, while the system itself remains (mostly) usable.
Unfortunately, no message whatsoever is shown in the kernel logs. Also, reboot or poweroff no longer works and the system needs a hard reset. :(


I have bisected the kernel and found the culprit (or at least something, that appears to trigger the bad behavior):

    watchdog/softlockup: Fix cpu_stop_queue_work() double-queue bug
    
    When scheduling is delayed for longer than the softlockup interrupt
    period it is possible to double-queue the cpu_stop_work, causing list
    corruption.
    
    Cure this by adding a completion to track the cpu_stop_work's
    progress.
