Description of problem: Fedora 26/27 kernel has Reset Attack Mitigation enabled (CONFIG_RESET_ATTACK_MITIGATION) which may cause strange reboot sequence on certain hardware (Lenovo Thinkpad X220). Instead of rebooting normally, the laptop would hard power off (without properly stopping peripherals and internal devices, which may be spotted by HDD losing power with a specific unusual sound) and then powers on again after 1 second. This option should be configurable if possible. I made the systemd service to workaround the problem, which writes "0" to MemoryOverwriteRequestControl EFI variable: https://gist.github.com/ValdikSS/86352b03ec3ed3c8713b78c7e20dc222 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-4.14.11-300.fc27.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot Fedora 26/27, either live or installed 2. Reboot the computer (Lenovo X220 laptop in my case) Actual results: The computer perform hard power off and power on after 1 second Expected results: The computer reboots without losing power
The author of this patch Matthew Garrett: >It shouldn't be enabled unless there's code in the shutdown path to clear the flag on clean shutdowns
Yes, I talked to Matthew and confirmed that this shouldn't be on unless there is a userspace component. I don't want to do that right now so I turned off the option. The bug will be updated when it gets picked up into a build.
