Hi all,

I am encountering repeated AE_AML_LOOP_TIMEOUT errors in the ACPI RDWD
& \_SB.PCI0.SBRG.ADP1._PSR methods. Below are relevant log entries
from my system running Linux kernel 6.13.0+:

[78032.883061] ACPI: \_SB_.PCI0.SBRG.ADP1: Error reading AC Adapter
state: AE_AML_LOOP_TIMEOUT


This issue appears randomly, affecting the RDWD method, which is
likely responsible for reading data from a bus, and consequently
causing the _PSR method (power state read) to fail.


Questions:
1. What typically causes AE_AML_LOOP_TIMEOUT errors?

2. Could these ACPI errors impact PCI device access?
Since the error originates from _SB.PCI0.SBUS.RDWD, could this failure
affect PCI device communication or cause failures when accessing PCI
devices?

3. Could this be a firmware/BIOS issue?If so, what tools or steps
should I use to verify and debug the ACPI tables?

4. Is there a recommended workaround to mitigate this issue?

4. How can I debug this further?I can enable additional ACPI debugging
logs or provide dumps of ACPI tables if necessary.

Any guidance on resolving or further diagnosing this issue would be
highly appreciated.

Best regards,
Naveen

AFAIK this error is caused by a while loop taking too long to finish. I suspect that
the ACPI bytecode tries to wait for a non-responsive hardware device.

I do not think so, the SBUS device is likely just a SMBus controller attached to the PCI bus.

It is either a hardware issue or a BIOS bug. Can you share the output of the "acpidump" utility
provided by the ACPICA project? Many Linux distributions already package ACPICA in their package repositories.

You can check if a BIOS update is available for your device.

I can take a look at the \_SB.PCI0.SBUS.RDWD method inside the ACPI table dumps
to see where the error is coming from.

Alright, it seems that the ACPI bytecode is trying to access the charger using the smbus interface.
For some reason this takes over 30 seconds which causes the ACPI interpreter to throw this error.

Can you check how long it normally takes to read the "online" sysfs attribute of the charger located
under "/sys/class/power_supply/ADP1"?

Also please share the output of "lspci -v".

Thanks,
Armin Wolf

I have written a script to measure the time it takes to read the
"online" sysfs attribute of the charger located under
/sys/class/power_supply/ADP1. Below is the script and the results:

$cat test.sh
#!/bin/bash

start_time=$(date +%s%N)
cat /sys/class/power_supply/ADP1/online
end_time=$(date +%s%N)

elapsed_time=$((end_time - start_time))
echo "Time taken: $((elapsed_time / 1000000)) ms"

$ sudo ./test.sh
1
Time taken: 3809 ms

$ sudo ./test.sh
1
Time taken: 1688 ms

$ sudo ./test.sh
1
Time taken: 1685 ms

$ sudo ./test.sh
1
Time taken: 1688 ms


As you can see, the first run took 3809 ms, and the subsequent runs
took around 1688 ms.

The i2c_i801 driver uses a custom operation region handler to intercept ACPI accesses
to the smbus controller registers, maybe this could be the reason for the timeouts.

I CCed the maintainers of this driver. Maybe they can help us here.
