RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
This caused hardware test suite (v7) suspend test failure on several laptops (x200, T400).

/var/run/pm-utils/pm-suspend/storage/inhibit was created during the test. The call flow is like this,

pm-suspend
  -> do_suspend
    -> run_hooks sleep 'resume suspend' reverse
       -> maybe_deallocvt
         -> state_exists console 
            -> [ -O "${STORAGEDIR}/state:$1" ]
            (/var/run/pm-utils/pm-suspend/storage/state:console not there)
              -> state_exists console || return (return 1)
                -> hook_exit_status 1
                  -> inhibit
                    -> echo "$*" > "$INHIBIT"
                      -> inhibited
                        -> exit 1

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Created attachment 431375 [details]
Fix maybe_deallocvt, now it returns true if there is --quirk-no-chvt (same behaviour as maybe_chvt).

Happened only on machines with --quirk-no-chvt. Please try the attached patch.

Scratch build: https://brewweb.devel.redhat.com/taskinfo?taskID=2590861

It fixed for me. Thanks for the quick fix.

Fixed in pm-utils-1.2.5-8.el6.

pm-suspend now returns 0 if successfully resumed
-> VERIFIED
