Description Fabian Zeindl 2006-01-16 08:14:31 UTC
Distribution: Gentoo Linux
Hardware Environment: Acer Travelmate 243LC
Problem Description:

Hi

 When my laptop is started and my laptop lid is open,
/proc/acpi/button/lid/LID/state says "closed". When I close it once and
open it again once the value is set correctly. This is very annoying
cause my screensaver always invokes on startup.

Please re-test without overriding DSDT.
Comment 2 Fabian Zeindl 2006-02-08 07:44:03 UTC
I've tested it without overriding. Same result...
Comment 3 Len Brown 2006-08-10 00:41:20 UTC
Please verify that this is still a problem with a recent kernel,
such as 2.6.17.stable or 2.6.18-rc
Comment 4 Fabian Zeindl 2006-08-17 01:38:10 UTC
Hi,

I run 2.6.17.7 and still have this problem on my laptop.
Comment 5 Zhang Rui 2006-08-17 23:04:20 UTC
please have a look at bug 5809 shown in 
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5809, and make sure whether you've 
got the same problem.:)
If not, please make the test that Len Brown asked in #1, that will be 
helpful.:)
Comment 6 Fabian Zeindl 2006-08-18 04:49:13 UTC
I did the test:

1. When you boot the system with the lid open, what does state say?

# cat /proc/acpi/button/lid/LID0/state
state:      closed

2. When you then press the lid button down (or actually close the lid
and check the state from a serial console or network connection)
what does state say?

# cat /proc/acpi/button/lid/LID0/state
state:      closed

3. when you release or open the lid, what does state say?

# cat /proc/acpi/button/lid/LID0/state
state:      open



I dont't think I have the same problem, because after I closed the lid once
everything is working perfectly fine. I don't have problems like I have to wait
20 seconds to change the status or things like that.

get LID state earlier

Maybe OS gets a wrong LID state by evaluate "_LID" method. So i try to get the
LID state at an earlier time. if the state still shows "closed". i think this
is probably caused by a bios bug. Please try this patch and attach dmesg
again:)

                }
            }

            Name (_PRW, Package (0x02)
            {
                0x18, 
                0x03
            })
        }

and LIDS is defined here:

If you can access the valuyes of P54 and LIDS before
any lid events are triggered, then that will tell us
if the values are correct in the hardware and perhaps an 
EC event was necessary to update LIDS and notify the OS.
(and maybe Linux has a bug where that even was dropped
and the EC handler was not invoked?)

or if the values are incorrect in P54 and LIDS until there is
an actual LID change, then this hardware and BIOS simply
work that way and Linux will not be able to fix this bug.

Fabian,
It would be interesting if you can boot the laptop with
the lid closed, log in over the network and observe the
lid status then.  presumably it will say closed, as that
is apparently the inital value no matter what.

Then on 1st open the lid state should immediately switch
to open, because this ec event handler should run for
the first time (and you should see an increment under
acpi in /proc/interrupts) and update the value to be open.
If that doesn't work, then I'm off track here and the
issue is elsewhere.
Comment 11 Zhang Rui 2006-08-23 20:12:52 UTC
i really have the same doubt that whether LIDS/P54S is 
initialized the right value when the laptop boots. 
i suppose that adding an method (maybe the _INI) for 
LID0 device which will set LIDS to 1 may help this laptop 
boots correctly with the LID open. Any other places to 
set LIDS to 1 will also works.
but i don't know whether this can be realized or not. 
Maybe i am on the wrong way from the beginning ...
Comment 12 Len Brown 2006-08-23 22:27:50 UTC
Rui, 
You can find the values of these locations at boot in two ways. 
 
1. find the chip-set spec for the hardware, determine the 
   addresses to read/write, and use inl(1) etc. 
or 
2. modify the DSDT with move(variable, Debug) lines 
   that are invoked at some boot time place before 
   the event in question.  build the DSDT into the kernel 
   and build with CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG so that the messages 
   come out in the console log. 
 
Comment 13 Fabian Zeindl 2006-08-26 01:13:16 UTC
1.
When I try the patch it still says "closed" after bootup. I attached dmesg.

2.
When I try to boot the laptop with LID closed (by touching the sensor) it
immediatly powers off again. When I reboot with LID closed it's the same. it
powers off.
When I wait until the grub menu comes I can close it and it will be boot. I
logged in over network and lid state says "closed".

Dmesg output with patch
Comment 15 Fabian Zeindl 2006-08-26 01:15:35 UTC
P.S.: I tried booting and logging in over network with the old kernel again
_without_ the patch.
Comment 16 Len Brown 2006-08-26 18:57:41 UTC
> I logged in over network and lid state says "closed". 
 
And when you opened it for the first time, did it correctly 
switch to "open", and increment the acpi line in /proc/acpi/interrupts? 
 
 
Comment 17 Fabian Zeindl 2006-08-28 00:55:57 UTC
Yes, it switched to open.

I don't have /proc/acpi/interrupt.
Comment 18 Zhang Rui 2006-08-28 01:51:14 UTC
>Yes, it switched to open.
Everything goes well when boot with the Lid closed.
This proves that Linux does not drop any events.
It seems that the values remains 0 in LIDS no matter
the Lid is open or closed until there is an actual 
LID change. This "0" value is meaningless because
no one touches it since the system boots.But OS treats 
this as the signature of "closed" Lid state.
This is rather a BIOS bug that Linux can't fix.
 
>I don't have /proc/acpi/interrupts.
cat /proc/interrupts
check if there is an acpi interrupt increment
when you open the Lid for the first time.

Comment 19 Fabian Zeindl 2006-08-28 02:14:48 UTC
No, it doesn't increment, it stays on 186 or something like this. I've to close
the LID another time, then it begins to increment.
Comment 20 Zhang Rui 2006-08-28 03:53:02 UTC
So do you mean that when open the lid for the first time, 
State turns to "open" immediately but none acpi interrupt occurs.
That's weird.:(
How about this one:
# /etc/init.s/acpid stop
# cat /proc/acpi/event
Would you please try this test and tell me the result? :)
And if you can boot your laptop with Lid open and do the same 
two tests again, that will be great.:)
Comment 21 Fabian Zeindl 2006-08-28 04:30:34 UTC
I did the test again, and when I boot with lid closed it says closed and when I
open it it says closed and I have to close and open it another time for correct
value.

sorry, I think I did something wrong before. Do you need the new tests too?
Comment 22 Zhang Rui 2006-08-28 18:22:58 UTC
OK. Sounds interesting.
Let's repeat the tests again,and during the first step,
i want you to give me the following information.
Lid state, acpi interrupts(proc/interrupts).
Boots with the lid open and lid closed,  make a record
every time you open/close your Lid until everything is OK.:)
Comment 23 Fabian Zeindl 2006-08-29 03:15:25 UTC
OK:

=== Boot with LID open ===

interrupts:
  9:        149          XT-PIC  acpi
state:
  state:      closed

==> LID CLOSE
interrupts:
  9:        156          XT-PIC  acpi
state:
  state:      closed

==> LID OPEN
interrupts:
  9:        198          XT-PIC  acpi
state:
  state:      open

=== Boot with LID close ===
interrupts:
  9:        183          XT-PIC  acpi
state:
  state:      closed

===> LID OPEN
interrupts:
  9:        218          XT-PIC  acpi
state:
  state:      closed

===> LID CLOSE
interrupts:
  9:        225          XT-PIC  acpi
state:
  state:      closed

===> LID OPEN
interrupts:
  9:        267          XT-PIC  acpi
state:
  state:      open


I hope this helps. Is the one interrupts-line OK?
Comment 24 Fabian Zeindl 2006-08-29 03:16:49 UTC
Is there a reason why interrupts increment now everytime? I'm on ac power so I
don't think it's a "power interrupt" (if such things exist).
What can that be?
Comment 25 Zhang Rui 2006-08-29 18:56:28 UTC
There is really an abnormal interrupt increment that brings me some difficulty
to make sure whether there is an interrupt occurs when you open/close the Lid.
This time let's try this way.
Do the following soon after OS is started.
# /etc/init.s/acpid stop
# cat /proc/acpi/event
open/close the lid for several times and record what is print out each time.
Comment 26 Zhang Rui 2006-08-30 02:23:22 UTC
And /proc/interrupts as well:)

new dsdt

override your dsdt with this one.
cat your Lid state before any Lid open/close operations.
then open/close it until everything is OK.
attach the dmesg output.:)
Comment 28 Zhang Rui 2006-08-30 22:15:39 UTC
set   CONFIG_ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT=y   and
  CONFIG_ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT_FILE="/.../dsdt.hex" (the
   full pathname of the new dsdt file here). 
Make and install, and your new DSDT table will
   be  used  in place of the old one.
Comment 29 Fabian Zeindl 2006-09-04 06:42:58 UTC
I tried the new dsdt, this doesn't change anything.

boot with lid open:
interrupts:615 lid:closed
->close
interrupts:661 lid:closed
->open
interrups:672 lid:open

boot with lid closed:
interrupts:186 lid:closed
->open
interrupts:223 lid:closed
->closed
interrups:264 lid:closed
->open
interrups:297 lid:open

i remove acpid of the startup scripts for all this.

I noticed that doing
cat /proc/acpi/button/lid/LID0/state
increases the interrupt line too.

greetings

PS: can't we just close this bug to won't fix or something?
I'm spending far more time debugging that it annoys me.
Comment 30 Zhang Rui 2006-09-04 18:10:48 UTC
I think you should attatch the _dmesg_ output with the new dsdt. :)
Debug information in the dmesg will tell us if the values are correct in the 
hardware. This can really help us find the key reason of this bug.

Sorry to bother you too much. But we are getting closer to the right way step 
by step. It will be very kind of you to try it again. Thanks.
Comment 31 Adrian Bunk 2006-12-02 01:31:29 UTC
Please reopen this bug if:
- it is still present in kernel 2.6.19 and
- you can provide the requested information.
