Description Stephen Warren 2008-09-14 03:58:22 UTC
Description of problem:
When hibernate is requested, it is attempted, but fails, and the user is soon returned to the X screen lock.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.25.11-97.fc9.i686

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. When logged in to a Gnome desktop, perform: System (menu on gnome panel) -> Shutdown -> Hibernate
2. Watch the machine appear to hibernate
3. Watch the X screen lock appear
  
Actual results:
Machine simply returns immediately to X screen lock

Expected results:
Machine should hibernate and power off.

The comment on Jun 21st 2006 by dave84 (cat NNN > /sys/power/image_size) fixes the issue.

Specifically: echo 1073741824 > /sys/power/image_size

The laptop in question has 512M RAM, 1024M swap on LVM on crypto, and worked for about a year under F8 and then F9 with kernels prior to the recent set of F9 updates after the security outage.

top shows that swap is ~80% unused (161M/1024M used), and I think it was much earlier the first time I reproduced this.

I can't find anything in 2.6.27 that changes this.

yum.log from the last few days; hibernate worked before this.

Comment 3 Stephen Warren 2008-09-14 17:41:22 UTC
This probably isn't a kernel bug; I booted back into 2.6.25.11-97.fc9.i686 and the issue was present there too.

I guess some other update I installed in the few days or so must have caused this. I honestly don't know which one it'd be; any help tracking this down appreciated.

FYI, I did this:

cd /etc
find . -xdev -type f |xargs grep -HnI image_size
cd /usr
find . -xdev -type f |xargs grep -HnI image_size

and nothing relevant showed up.

Finally, I have attached my yum.log for the last few days, for clues as to packages that may have caused this.

Comment 4 Matthew Garrett 2008-09-15 18:14:01 UTC
What is the image_size value set to?  Can you attach the dmesg output from a failed attempt at hibernation?

Comment 5 Stephen Warren 2008-09-15 20:04:22 UTC
image_size is either 512*1000*1000 or 512*1024*1024. 512M is the RAM size.

I can get the exact figure, and dmesg output, tonight.

Comment 7 Stephen Warren 2008-09-16 03:01:09 UTC
FYI, the previous kernel log was from kernel-2.6.25.11-97.fc9.i686. I reproduced the same issue with the same log messages with each of the following kernel versions:

kernel-2.6.25.11-97.fc9.i686
kernel-2.6.25.14-108.fc9.i686
kernel-2.6.26.3-29.fc9.i686

Note that I originally thought 2.6.26.3 had fixed it; sometimes the system hibernates OK (fairly rare), but mostly not.

Comment 8 Bug Zapper 2009-06-10 02:42:39 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 9.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '9'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here: 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping

Comment 9 Bug Zapper 2009-07-14 13:59:04 UTC
Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 is 
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
