I have an hybrid graphics Sony VAIO laptop, with the usual intel integrated+radeon discrete cards. On startup I disable the radeon card using vgaswitcheroo. 

I noticed that the power consumption, as reported in

/proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state

gets higher when I resume my laptop from suspend to RAM. I strongly suspect that this is related to a bug in vgaswitcheroo or the radeon driver, since the power used after resume is consistent with the power used when the discrete video card is not off. My guess is that the card is powered by default when the system comes up from suspend, while the kernel believes it's still powered off.

Before resume I made sure the discrete card was off by using

sudo bash -c "echo OFF > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch"

At resume, with high power consumption, the state is reported as expected:

sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch
0:IGD:+:Pwr:0000:00:02.0
1:DIS: :Off:0000:01:00.0

Still, if I run:

sudo bash -c "echo ON > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch"

It takes a few seconds, and from dmesg I can see errors from the radeon driver.

Anyway, eventually the command finishes and I can run:

sudo bash -c "echo OFF > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch"

No error now, and the power consumption goes down to the expected level.

Comment 1 Peter Wu 2012-10-05 15:01:01 UTC
Possibly a duplicate of https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44391 (which is about Nvidia Optimus, but a solution possibly has the same patch)

So you have a MUX-less hybrid Intel / AMD setup if I am not mistaken?
Comment 2 Alessandro Pignotti 2012-10-05 17:56:21 UTC
Yes my setup is as you described. The bug looks the same as this indeed https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44391
Comment 3 Peter Wu 2012-10-05 19:13:52 UTC
You can mark this bug as a duplicate of that bug.

Does your machine have an indicator that shows whether the discrete graphics card is enabled or not? If you happens to have such an indicator and also have a Windows installation with drivers installed, can you check what happens around suspend/resume?

On my Nvidia Optimus laptop, the following holds for a s/r cycle under Windows:

- indicator shows initially that the dGPU is deactivated.
- Before suspend, indicator shows that dGPU is activated.
- On resume, the indicator initially shows the dGPU as deactivated. Then, it turns shortly to "activated", and then to "deactivated" again.
- indicator finally shows the dGPU as deactivated.

Is this also true for AMD?
Comment 4 Alessandro Pignotti 2012-10-05 19:22:05 UTC
Unfortunately I don't have such indicator. The windows way of solving the issue is using a physical switch.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 44391 ***
Comment 5 Peter Wu 2012-10-05 19:25:38 UTC
Is that a switch (left/right slide) or toggle (slide to one side and it goes back automatically)?
Comment 6 Alessandro Pignotti 2012-10-05 19:36:03 UTC
It's a switch. On linux I think it justs send a generic input event. So it's implemented in software under windows.
Comment 7 Peter Wu 2012-10-05 20:00:56 UTC
Thank you for letting me know. My VGA button (for switching between performance and powersave mode) is also implemented as a software solution. When pressed, a WMI ACPI event is generated which is processed by the Hotkey.exe program in Windows. I guess yours works in a similar way.

Btw, are you able to test the aforementioned suspend/resume cycle in windows?
