S2R gone with 2.6.12-rc1-mm1

S2R gone with 2.6.12-rc1-mm1

[Norbert Preining]

Hi Andrew!

Sorry to bother you again, but I found that S2R does not work anymore
with 2.6.12-rc1-mm1, while it works with the exact same software setup
with 2.6.11-mm4.

I unload the whole usb stuff (otherwise 2.6.11-mm4 won't work) and do
exactely the same.

The differences in the kernel config files are trivial:

new stuff I answered with yes:
+CONFIG_ACPI_HOTKEY=y
+CONFIG_PCMCIA_IOCTL=y
+CONFIG_AOE_PARTITIONS=16

stuff that has automatically changed (changed Kconfig I suppose)
-CONFIG_FW_LOADER=m
+CONFIG_FW_LOADER=y

and some modules I compiled but not use/load.

With 2.6.12-rc1-mm1 the system starts, then nothing, black screen, no
CapsLock light, no Sysrq, no sync hard disk led activity, just plane
frozen.

Best wishes

Norbert

Excuse my ignorance, but what on earth is "S2R"?

Oh.  suspend-to-RAM.

Would this be an ACPI regression?

Sorry for the S2R. I guess that it is related to the new ACPI stuff
introduced in bk-acpi lately. What would you suggest:

Taking the bk-acpi patch from 2.6.11-mm4 and use it instead of the one
in 2.6.12-rc1-mm1? I guess this will not really work?!

Best wishes

Norbert

Well if you could test 2.6.12-rc1 plus rc1-mm1's bk-apci.patch, that would
confirm your theory.

Apart from that - please raise a bugzilla entry for the acpi guys.
