* Problem: ACPI related soft lockup on Fujitsu-Siemens AMILO Si 2636 @ 2008-10-06 11:23 Thomas Lindroth 2008-10-08 7:20 ` Thomas Lindroth 0 siblings, 1 reply; 10+ messages in thread From: Thomas Lindroth @ 2008-10-06 11:23 UTC (permalink / raw) To: linux-acpi Hello I'm experiencing a problem with my new Fujitsu-Siemens AMILO Si 2636 laptop. When the system is under heavy load it locks up and a message about soft lockup roll on the terminal. The message differs from time to time but it's always a soft lockup caused by kacpid and the associated call trace is always somewhere in the ACPI AML parsing code. I'm guessing there is a bug in the AML parser or more likely in the Amilo's AML code The lockup only occur if ACPI is active and it seems to be related to the thermal module. Most of the call traces contain the function acpi_thermal_get_temperature but not all of them. I use the most recent 1.0d 25.03.2008 BIOS. I believe kernel bug #6433 is related to this. The circumstance and call trace looks similar. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6433 A typical message looks like this: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#1 stuck for 61s!

Steps to reproduce: Boot a recent kernel on a Fujitsu-Siemens AMILO Si 2636 laptop and put the system under heavy load. A kernel make -j3 works but a make -j1 is not enough.

I tried activating the ACPI_LV_INFO ACPI debug mode and observed what happens when the system is under load. I saved one trace and put it in the file acpi_debug_log at http://www.cyd.liu.se/~tholi945/acpi-bug-2008-10-06/ When the temp goes over the ACPI passive trip point the processor gets throttled. It usually never goes over T4 before the temp falls below the passive temp but sometimes it reaches the highest T7. If it reach T7 the next call to _TMP or _L18 never returns. I've confirmed this by running echo T7 > /proc/acpi/processor/CPU*/throttling and then tried to read from /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/TZ00/temperature and it fails in the same way. I've tried activating the ACPI_LV_PARSE ACPI debug mode, enter T7 and read from temp. I put the result of that in the trace_debug file at the same adress. The AML call chain looks like this _TMP -> PMRD -> RCMD -> WIBF WIBF always returns 1 causing the interpreter to get stuck in the while loop in PMRD. While (RCMD (0x80, Local0)) { Noop Noop Store (PMUC, Local5) If (And (Local5, One, Local2)) { Store (PMUD, Local5) } } I don't really understand how AML code works so I can't get much further than this. I did not experience complete lockups in Windows but I did notice some minor stalls. Maybe the Windows AML parser can break infinite loops or maybe the stalls is a normal part of the Windows experience. I tried to boot with the acpi_osi=Linux option active but it didn't make any difference. /Thomas Lindroth ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 10+ messages in thread

It is possible to replace this driver with the native Linux one, which might be more robust, but this involves heavy DSDT hacking. Overall, it is heavily mis-designed BIOS, so don't expect it to be fixed on Linux side. Regards, Alex. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 10+ messages in thread

Could you provide a short explanation what should be fixed in which way in the BIOS tables. Best in a way that I can just forward this. It's hard in the laptop area to convince fsc to fix it, but I at least like to try and to tell them. Hmm, I think the last two mails should already be enough, I think I got it. Is there a general hint I could add into the ACPI Linux guideline, like: Don't implement EC data/index register reads/writes in AML yourself. Define a EC variable and e.g. use Store(ECXY, Local0) to read and Store(Local0, ECXY) to write to specific EC bytes. Did I get this right?

My understanding is that Windows does not support 2 EC devices, so these people need to implement second in AML. So, it might be worth noting that Linux can handle any number of EC devices.

Can these guys do it right if we return true for: _OSI("Multiple EC capable") How does a second EC declaration look like? Just a second EC OperationRegion? Ahh, it's a whole device, it would still work. It's just the first time that the device is only used on Linux and not on Windows. This would also be declared in Windows, because you cannot set conditions around declarations, but it would not hurt: This is done in _OSI init section: If (\_OSI ("Multiple EC capable")) { Store (0x01, \MIEC) } Somewhere in the Scope you have this unconditionally. Arghh, that would certainly not work on Windows then or could at least be a potential risk there?: /* Second EC, unused on Windows */ Device (EC2) { Name (_HID, EisaId ("PNP0C09")) OperationRegion (ECOR, EmbeddedControl, 0x00, 0x0100) Field (ECOR, ByteAcc, NoLock, Preserve) { RTMP, 1, ... } } Where the actual value is read: /* Linux case */ if(LEqual(MIEC, 1)) Store(RTMP, 1) /* Windows case */ else { While (RCMD (0x80, Local0)) { Noop Noop Store (PMUC, Local5) If (And (Local5, One, Local2)) { Store (PMUD, Local5) } } } --------------- Better ideas? The problem is the second EC HID device which cannot be hidden on Windows... If Windows is really too dumb for two ECs and vendors are therefore really doing such crap as above, we should think about alternatives..., the EC driver simulation looks rather unsupportable (It misses some locks, but not in AML namespace, but the ones in drivers/acpi/ec.c, right?). IIRC the ACPI spec explicitly mentions a two (or multiple?) EC PC configuration somewhere? Anyway... Thomas ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 10+ messages in thread

But the bigger question is why the temperature is hitting 78 -- which is quite hot. Grep above will tell us if there is ACPI fan control, but I don't see any in the logs. Can you hear the fans spinning? Do they go faster when the system heats up? do they work better after you blow the dust our of the fan? -Len ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 10+ messages in thread
