dmesg.log of Fedora 12 2.6.32 kernel

None of ACPI functions are working with 2.6.32/2.6.33 x86_64 kernel on Fedora 12/13RC3 : reboot, shutdown, tty switch, user logoff/switch, and etc. When trying any of these functions, machine hangs.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Fedora 12
2. Boot into logon screen and try to reboot (or change tty)

Actual results: machine hangs, could be rebooted only by hard reset.

Expected results: machine reboot (or tty console)

Additional info: ACPI functions work fine with 2.6.30 kernel from Fedora 11.
Comment 1 Zhang Rui 2010-05-19 06:56:25 UTC
please attach the dmesg output after boot in 2.6.30 kernel.
please attach the acpidump output of your laptop.

and please check if the problem can be fixed by adding boot option acpi_osi="!Windows 2009"

Comment 3 Mae Marcus 2010-05-20 22:30:14 UTC
The acpi_osi="!Windows 2009" added to kernel options does not seem to change anything, same symptoms.

this is a bug that have been fixed in the new ACPICA release.
please try the latest upstream kernel, say 2.6.35-rc to see if the problem still exists.
Comment 5 Zhang Rui 2010-06-09 08:17:25 UTC
please re-open it if the problem still exists in 2.6.35-rc kernel
Comment 6 Mae Marcus 2010-07-11 20:33:33 UTC
I've just compiled fedora's 2.6.35-0.31.rc4.git4.fc13.x86_64 from Koji http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=182648

Same problem. As you asked, reopening the bug.
Comment 7 Zhang Rui 2010-07-12 07:35:04 UTC
Ming,
can you please double check if the fix has been merged in 2.6.35-rc4 please?
Comment 8 Lin Ming 2010-07-12 08:29:58 UTC
Hi, Mae

What's the ACPICA version in 2.6.35-0.31.rc4.git4.fc13.x86_64?

dmesg |grep -i acpi |grep -i core
Comment 9 Mae Marcus 2010-07-12 09:29:47 UTC
Hi Ming,

How can I determine the ACPICA version?

Comment 10 Lin Ming 2010-07-13 00:07:40 UTC
Please boot kernel 2.6.35-0.31.rc4.git4.fc13.x86_64 and then run below command,
dmesg |grep -i acpi |grep -i core

This bug seems a duplicate of http://www.acpica.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=762
It should be already fixed by below commit in 2.6.33-rc1 with ACPICA version 20091112.

    ACPICA: Add additional module-level code support
    
    This change will execute module-level code that is not at the
    root of the namespace (under a Device object, etc.).

Comment 11 Mae Marcus 2010-07-13 10:31:09 UTC
I'm guessing something could be wrong in our expectations:

[marcusmae@noisy ~]$ uname -a
Linux noisy 2.6.35-0.31.rc4.git4.fc13.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 11
21:43:00 MSD 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[marcusmae@noisy ~]$ dmesg | grep -i acpi | grep -i core
ACPI: Core revision 20100428

And all ACPI issues are still here: no correct tty switch, no correct
shutdown/poweroff --- results into hang. Also I've seen that
everything is fine when X server was not loaded. Does it make sense?

Comment 12 Zhang Rui 2010-07-14 01:20:41 UTC
does the error message in comment #4 still exist?
please attach the dmesg output of the new kernel.
Comment 13 Zhang Rui 2010-09-27 01:13:29 UTC
no response from the bug reporter for more than a month.
please re-open it if the problem still exists in the LATEST upstream kernel and you can answer the question in comment #12.
