Boot log showcasing the error and warning

Description:

Since updating to kernel 5.19.6
My kernel log started getting full of warnings of energy_full being greater than energy_full_design.
Before the update, this warning would pop up for me about two times per month but no more.

Leaving my laptop unattended for a couple of hours and upon returning to it it was unresponsive and the caps locks key was blinking. (which AFAIK indicates an issue with power)

Laptop model: ThinkPad P15 Gen 2i

I have attached the log from last boot.

Downgrading the kernel to 5.19.1 seems to fix the issue, so it looks like this was introduced after that.
Comment 2 speak 2022-09-05 14:48:22 UTC
Nope I was wrong, the issue remains. In addition to the energy_full related warnings, I get errors such as:

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
ACPI Error: Aborting method \_SB.PC00.LPCB.EC._Q27 due to previous error (AE_NOT_FOUND) (20220331/psparse-529)
ACPI BIOS Error (bug): Could not resolve symbol [^^^PEG1.MASP], AE_NOT_FOUND (20220331/psargs-330)

Your dmesg doesn't actually contain this message;

$ grep great boot_fun; echo $?
1
Comment 4 Artem S. Tashkinov 2022-09-05 16:25:49 UTC
Please try installing the latest BIOS revision which looks like version 1.22.

Check if it helps, if it doesn't, please upload a log file with this warning.
