Created attachment 369484 [details]
Output of lspci -vv

Description of problem:
Here is the matrix of what works and what doesn't on this machine with F-12:

1. KMS + compiz: works, but hibernate/thaw doesn't
2. noKMS + compiz: desktop becomes unbearably slow (opening a menu takes 30 sec)
3. KMS + metacity: works
4. noKMS + metacity: works

I have also tried with PAE kernel. That's similar. Essentially, after about 3 hibernate/thaw cycles, there is a blank or flickering screen and the machine is hung (no ping, Ctrl + Alt + Fn does nothing etc.)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.6.31.5-127.fc12.i686

How reproducible:
After a few hibernate/thaw cycles.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run KMS + compiz on this hardware.
2. Hibernate/thaw several times.
  
Actual results:
Machine freezes on thaw.

Expected results:
A variant of this used to work on F-11. With KMS disabled, compiz ran fine. Now that's unusable too (desktop becomes terribly slow).

Additional info:
Output of lcpci -vv attached.

Comment 1 Andrew Duggan 2009-11-13 21:25:47 UTC
History:

F9 on this hardware ran compiz and hibernate/thaw great. Fast and reliable.
F10 on this hardware only ran compiz at speed if the F9 intel Xorg driver was used.
F11 on this hardware panics on thaw with KMS and compiz.  
F12 on this hardware same as F11 except compiz is so slow as to be unusable without KMS.

Guess I'll camp on this bug too. I guess my question is if ANY Intel graphics chips are usable with KMS/Compiz and hibernate/thaw. I wonder if F12 will run compiz (with enough speed to be usable) and hibernate/thaw on any currently available laptop hardware. 

When does the KMS stuff hit the mainline kernel?  Maybe then a kernel.org bz as a regression can finally be opened.  Torvalds shouldn't take any KMS stuff for intel until they fix this.   At least he gives some lip service to the idea that regressions are really very bad.

Yep, I'm back to metacity (which pegs Xorg CPU usage quite a bit) on both of my 6400 machines. Booting every time from scratch and then starting dozens of apps is just too tedious.

> 3. KMS + metacity: works

Actually, I'm exaggerating here. On one of the machines even this causes trouble. Flickering screen on thaw or dead machine.

Comment 4 Bojan Smojver 2009-11-23 06:07:51 UTC
Anything in 2.6.31.6-134.fc12 worth testing regarding this?

Comment 5 Bojan Smojver 2009-11-23 06:11:40 UTC
Or maybe 2.6.31.6-145.fc12?

Here is some nice irony:

These are both by Arlie. I know it would be a lot easier to believe that if this bug did not exist. 

With this bug were only assured of what he labels a) and b).  Even though their goal by stating that's what their being paid for, goes a) through d)  inclusive.

It would also be a lot easier to believe if it weren't for the fact that this bug is a signal of an increasing level of regression from F9 through present, and that Intel Graphics chips were what everyone said to buy if you wanted good support in Fedora.  

Longing for the good old days, when I could recommend Linux and esp Fedora to people.

Personally, I was hoping KMS + compiz + hibernate/thaw would finally work in F-12. Instead, I get no compiz at all if I use hibernate/thaw. Clearly a regression.

Some people say "don't use hibernate/thaw or suspend/resume". I find that to be terribly inconvenient. I don't want to be starting all these apps every time - it's a waste time. I'd rather not have 3D graphics, which turns my desktop in 90's thing, but at least it works.

PS. On the topic of hibernate/thaw, long time ago I was trying to convince kernel folks to merge Suspend2/TuxOnIce into the kernel. They were telling me that better hibernate/thaw and suspend/resume support was coming. All these years later, we still have a shitty "blank screen, no progress bar" swsusp in F-12 and as far as I can see that uswsusp thing is a clumsy as it always was. Just ranting...

Comment 8 Bojan Smojver 2009-12-01 04:04:43 UTC
Aha! Workaround from bug #541670 appears to fix the slowness with noKMS + compiz for me. I'll check if the latest kernel (-156) works out of the box.

So, isn't this just a dupe? What remains specific for this bug?

Comment 10 Andrew Duggan 2009-12-01 15:56:17 UTC
Well Bojan can certainly comment, but the MAIN force of this bug is the segfaults on thaw from hibernate with KMS. So no it is not a dupe. It is really an F12 version of <a href="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=500983">500983</a>, which received precious little love.

Correct. The regression without KMS was just a cherry on top. The underlying problem is that with KMS enabled, hibernate/thaw is unusable. Which then makes KMS unusable. At least for me.

Nope. I'm running -162 now, which has:

And I still have to set sync_to_vblank to false. Otherwise, things are slow.

Comment 13 Adam Williamson 2009-12-13 17:54:56 UTC
This bug would be a lot easier to deal with if there were a lot less verbiage and a lot more details. We don't have any X or kernel logs from either of you. We have no idea what hardware Andrew Duggan has. Can you please read the instructions at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_debug_Xorg_problems and provide some of the information that's missing? Andrew, can you please explain what hardware you have and what your actual problem is? Thanks.

Comment 14 Bojan Smojver 2009-12-13 21:42:05 UTC
The machine hangs on resume/thaw. There is nothing special in kernel or X.org logs. Sometimes there is flickering screen, sometimes there is blank screen. That's all I can get out of it.

This is not an X bug it is a kernel bug, specifically related to KMS on Intel graphics.  

Bug can be reproduced from single user.  

Symptoms for me include user space segfaults on thaw from hibernate, when KMS is enabled. So, the "hanging" at least in my case is to due segfaults in userspace on thaw from hiberate where cycle count usually > 1.  Sometimes it take 5 cycles before it happens, but then it does.  It used to happen on every hibernate/thaw cycle.  Not all of user space segfaults, but usually all new processes immediately segfault

In short user space segfaults on thaw from hibernate with KMS on Intel Graphics.

Personally I believe is is this same bug at kernel.org 13811

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13811

Did anybody ever look at bug RHBZ 500983?  If you fix that one, this one will likely be fixed too.  It's been going on for more that 8 months, since before F11 was released.

I have a Dell Inspirion E1505 (MM061) which is the same HW as a Dell Inspiron E6400. I'll attach an lspci -vv

My graphics HW is:

I occasionally see the above as well. You kinda limp back into X, but then everything is broken. Every single binary crashes etc. So, I think we are describing one and the same thing (I've seen it too in F-11 as well). And, we also have the same hardware, so it makes sense.

Comment 18 Adam Williamson 2009-12-17 00:07:13 UTC
andrew: "specifically related to KMS on Intel graphics.  "

we keep KMS bugs filed on the driver components rather than the kernel at present; while technically incorrect it's much easier for the developers to track.

Comment 19 Bojan Smojver 2010-02-21 07:23:17 UTC
Just a quick update here. Latest Fedora 12 kernel (2.6.32.8-58.fc12.i686) still does pretty much the same thing on this hardware. I booted, suspended, resumed, hibernated and then thawed. At that point, the system was dead. I'll attach the photo of the screen.

Comment 21 Bojan Smojver 2010-02-23 09:54:49 UTC
The reason I'm getting particularly worried about this bug is because I read that as of Intel graphics driver 2.10.0 (which is in F-13) there will be no more user mode switching at all (i.e. removed completely from the source). Is that correct?

http://marc.info/?l=freedesktop-xorg-announce&m=126264406722609&w=2

If so, we will not be able to suspend/resume and hibernate/thaw on this hardware, unless something really changed in the new driver/kernel combo which is current in F-13. So, does anyone have any first hand knowledge of what the status here is?

Just to pile on, I'm further concerned that this affects a broader range of intel hw than just the chips in our HW. (Based on the kernel.org bug I linked to above) Personally I think this bug should have been marked as a *regression* because KMS was advertised as a feature, and it broke existing functionality - Hibernate/Thaw.  

Is there any Intel Video hardware that doesn't have this bug? Can any Intel HW survive *multiple* hibernate/resume cycles with KMS enabled?  I fear not.  

F13 should be block on this issue, considering it broke in F11.

You first reported the same issue/bug in F11 on 2009-05-15 06:56 EDT, (500983) so we're 9 plus months with a serious regression. 

[Didn't want to clear your "Need Info" flag, so I put it back on. - Sorry]

Comment 23 Harriet Severino 2010-03-02 16:42:22 UTC
I am getting a blank screen after booting into fedora 12 on a dell insperion, model pp31L with the Intel Centrino chip. This is probably related, so I am putting it here.

I can boot into centos 5.3 and all is well, but a fresh install on fedora 12, the screen goes blank less than a minute after booting. I am happy to add info on the fedora release, but I have just installed the fedora 12(final) DVD and the system in unusable booted to fedora. I can get info by mounting the fedora partition from centos.

Hardware info:
17" Dell Inspiron with 4GB and dual 250GB drives.

Why do you say it's probably related? you're using a different system and your problem is different. Please file a new bug.

I just tried F-13 Alpha Live i686 on this hardware and as suspected nomodeset passed to the kernel renders X unusable (no screens found). When booting as-is and trying to suspend, on resume no programs would start any more, although the desktop shows up (tried only once). Errors about squashfs flash by when trying to login as user fedora on one of the text consoles.

Guys, are we heading into a serious regression land here with F-13?

Comment 27 Adam Williamson 2010-03-10 01:25:17 UTC
If the errors are about squashfs, they're likely specific to the live boot environment (the filesystem in the live boot environment is a big squashfs). I'm not actually sure if we support suspending/resuming in the live environment, it may simply be broken by design in all cases.

If you have a spare partition, try installing the Alpha and see if it works.

Comment 28 Bojan Smojver 2010-03-10 01:35:06 UTC
I will try this, eventually. However, I haven't seen anything anywhere (yet) that would convince me that suspend/resume and hibernate/thaw will work on this hardware with F-13 (i.e. under KMS). Still makes me feel worried.

Comment 29 Bojan Smojver 2010-03-10 09:00:35 UTC
Things are a tiny bit better with kernel-2.6.32.9-70.fc12.i686.

I just upgraded to it in F-12 and did suspend/resume and hibernate/thaw cycles some 7 or 8 times. After that I got:
-------------------
Mar 10 19:50:42 shrek kernel: gnome-screensav[1903]: segfault at 1 ip 00c5b914 sp bfcc9b74 error 6 in libc-2.11.1.so[c09000+16f000]

-------------------

So, still not quite right. If you suspend/hibernate a few times only, you may not notice anything (I'm guessing that's what many people do). But, if you keep suspending/hibernating, eventually the problem persists.

Comment 30 Adam Williamson 2010-03-10 21:07:51 UTC
you could try building the current f13 kernel on f12, you may have to whack a few things to make it fly but I've done that kind of build several times in the past to test things and you can usually get it going well enough to test something. that would give you a decent indication of whether it'll work, because all the heavy lifting for suspend is done in the kernel, so the fact that the rest of the system is f12 shouldn't matter.

Comment 31 Bojan Smojver 2010-03-11 11:30:34 UTC
(In reply to comment #28)
> I will try this, eventually.

As promised, I now have F-13 on one of the partitions. I installed Alpha and fully updated.

Here is what I found (this is all with compiz + KMS, of course):

1. Artefacts are left over the screen. Things like Gnome terminal do it all the time.

2. Things don't appear in windows until something moves (e.g. a Google search in FF may not appear until you start scrolling). Switching to a text console may clear things up for a bit.

3. Hibernate/thaw doesn't work at all. The hibernate process writes image to swap and turns the machine off, but thaw whizzes by that and the boot process later reports that there was an image on swap, so it's going to get reinitialised. F-12 continues to hibernate/thaw just fine on this Dell Inspiron 6400.

4. I was able to suspend a few times, without seeing segfaults (the real failures usually occur with hibernate/thaw, so this is not really a proper test). However, after the latest suspend/resume after a clean boot, X locked up. I'll attach the log.

So, not so good, actually.

Just to be clear - without KMS only.

So the F13 kernel 2.6.33-1.fc13.i686 is worse than the F12 update kernel-2.6.32.9-70.fc12.i686, which at least will hibernate / thaw in the 7 times range (with KMS).  I'm getting about 7 successful thaws on 2.6.32.9-70 too.  So to sum up 2.6.33.1 is totally broken for hibernate/thaw which is worse than 2.6.32.9. 

Would you mind adding your 2.6.33.1 experience to the kernel.org bug http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13811

It looks like this has moved from simple regression to regressing regression.

I see that bug is about hibernate/thaw, which I cannot do at all with at all with F-13. I'll add a link to comment #31 of this bug pointing that my experience is (for now) with suspend/resume only.

Comment 36 Adam Williamson 2010-03-11 22:04:58 UTC
bojan: i'd say your f13 experience is worth a new report for f13, since it seems to have introduced new problems. thanks!

Yeah, I'll open another bug report, or should I open two: one for lack of hibernate/thaw, the other for artefacts on the screen and no refresh?

PS. Incidentally, I'm going to be changing machines in the next few weeks. The new one will have Radeon graphics (most likely). So, if RH engineers want to get their hands on this hardware for a couple of weeks, I can have it brought to Sydney office. Or organise for you guys to SSH in, once I get my ducks in a row with the new machine. After that, my daughter gets it to run Windows on it.

Comment 38 Adam Williamson 2010-03-11 22:51:23 UTC
Yeah, two bugs would be best.

If we could get the hardware to the Sydney office that might be great. Ajax, would that help you?

When I purchase and set up the new hardware, I'll let you know via this bug. If you want to have the machine for a few hours before I do that without dismantling my F-12 installation, I can drop by the the North Sydney office. I'm only 10 minutes away.

Latest koji kernel, 2.6.32.11-99.fc12.i686, gives black screen and hung machine on second thaw.

Comment 43 Bojan Smojver 2010-05-04 06:48:03 UTC
After fixing hibernate/thaw in F-13 (see bug #572771), I can now confirm that this same problem affect F-13 as well. After a few hibernate/thaw cycles, segfaults start. I'll attach messages file.

One other interesting behaviour is that after about second thaw, I could no longer get into X. It kept restarting. So, I ran pm-hibernate from one of the text consoles. After a few more cycles, I could get back into X, but then the segfaults started. I'll attach Xorg log as well.

Comment 46 Bojan Smojver 2010-05-14 01:42:25 UTC
Just quick note that I have upgraded this machine to F-13, so I won't be able to test anything related to F-12 here any more. However, the problems persist in F-13 (I pointed to kernel bug that tracks that), so I will be able to get at least some feedback to you.

Note that if Dell get their act together and actually send me a new machine that works, this hardware will be retired, at which point I won't be able to submit any more feedback on this.

Comment 47 Matěj Cepl 2010-05-18 10:25:38 UTC
Moving to F13 then.

Comment 48 Bojan Smojver 2010-05-26 23:39:28 UTC
Maybe we should get 2.6.34 kernel for F-13 in testing:

you can boot the current F-14 2.6.34 kernel in F-13 fine, I'm doing this on one of my systems.

Comment 60 Bojan Smojver 2010-07-08 13:09:24 UTC
Hmm, I tested hibernate twice with -147 on my Dell Inspiron 6400 and that was OK. I'll test more.

What worries me is that my ThinkPad T510 with Intel graphics now hangs every time on thaw after hibernate. I am not sure if this is something to do with Intel graphics, but it's annoying nevertheless. Nothing in logs that would make it obvious. There was this iwlagn bug some time ago that used to do this kind of thing, but that was fixed, AFAIK...

Comment 61 Andrew Duggan 2010-07-08 14:15:11 UTC
I have a E1505 which is the same as the 6400, but am still running F12.  The patch in question, should be the fix for 2.6.32 and probably back to at least .30 since this bug is 14 months old.  

Nevertheless, I took the latest f12 kernel from koji as of the 3rd of July, rediffed the patch and applied and rebuilt the kernel.  Basically I see the same sort of hang every 2nd or 3rd to 4th time as well.  The segfaults are completely gone, but the end result is not really better.

Here is what I saw in ABRT

The ONLY difference between the kernel I am running and 2.6.32.14-127.fc12.i686.PAE is the application of the patch below which is the fix for the segfaults on resume problem.

and my rpmbuild command line is:

rpmbuild -ba --without smp --without up --without kdump --without debug \
        --without debuginfo --with firmware --target i686 kernel.spec 

[So that it only builds the PAE kernel & firmware]

FWIW here is the patch rediffed for 2.6.32.14 (that way the fuzz is 0)

Since the latest f12 kernel 2.6.32.16-141 in Koji built yesterday didn't include this patch, I'm doing the same thing just to make sure, but while it builds, I thought I would pile on.... Of course, you can all right this off as just noise, but clearly there are still i915_gem bugs that don't interoperate with hibernate and resume, and it is likely they are in at least 2.6.33 and 2.6.32.  

Right now my thinking was is that this bug has been for the past 14 months been masking what we are now seeing.

kernel-2.6.33.6-147.fc13 has been pushed to the Fedora 13 stable repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.

I just went through hibernate/thaw cycle a dozen times on my Dell Inspiron 6400 using 2.6.33.6-147.fc13.i686 kernel and I could not fault it. Each time I thawed, I started a different program in gnome, switched to text console and logged in there - it all worked. So, yeah, looks like this really is fixed for F-13 on my hardware.

Now back to chasing as to why ThinkPad hangs...

Just for the record, updated the rest of the system, which brought in new version of iwl6000-firmware. Did hibernate/thaw several times and no hang. Hmm, curious.

Actually, it is Intel graphics, just a different problem (it surfaces more readily when default /sys/power/image_size is used on my hardware). New bug #612757.

Although I don't run Fedora on this machine any more, I run it on another machine with Intel graphics. And it looks like hibernation still causes trouble, just of a slightly different kind, see bug #635868. Looks like we've been celebrating too early :-(

I can say that on my  E1505, running 2.6.34.7-56.fc13.i686.PAE fully updated Fedora 13, it is completely fixed. As it turns out there seems to be another bug or bugs in the pm handling of other modules.  I had to add the following to
/etc/pm/config.d/50-modules SUSPEND_MODULES

dell_wmi wmi dell_laptop dcdbas iTCO_wdt

FWIW, I've had these in the list dating back from FC8 

b43 ohci_hcd kvm kvm-intel

While the dell specific modules are not applicable to your Thinkpad, and that new bug does seem to be quite different, the DELL HW I can say still works for me.   The bigger problem remains, is there any laptop HW that is currently on the market that F13/14 will hibernate/thaw?

My ThinkPad T510 was OK for a while with nothing blacklisted. Then it got borked again. I've seen some talk on LKML and recent -rc kernels about more fixes coming, but I cannot be sure.

I'll wait, I guess...
