Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Documentation/arch/x86/amd-debugging: Add section about delay_suspend
Date: Wed, 24 Jun 2026 14:43:26 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260624124326.746525-3-daniel@gibson.sh> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260624124326.746525-1-daniel@gibson.sh>
Some Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 devices and similar with AMD CPUs (so far
observed with Zen3 and Zen3+ CPUs) have a nonfunctional keyboard and
lid switch after s2idle.
It helps to delay suspend by 2.5 seconds so the EC has some time
to do whatever it needs to get done before suspend.
Devices known to be affected are matched automatically, others can
enforce the delay with a amd_pmc module parameter.
This is now documented in amd-debugging.rst

+Keyboard and Lid Switch stop working after resume
+-------------------------------------------------
+On various variants of the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 with Barcelo and Rembrandt CPUs
+the lid switch and keyboard, or at least the Fn/Multimedia keys, stopped working
+after resume, until the next reboot.
+
+This was caused by buggy firmware having timing probles, the EC needed some idle
+time right before the CPU cores are suspended, or it got into an inconsistent state.
+
+For laptops that are known to be affected this workaround is enabled
+automatically, to test this workaround on other machines you can set the
+``delay_suspend`` parameter of the ``amd_pmc`` module.
+
+If you need to set the ``delay_suspend`` parameter to fix your machine, please
+report this at platform-driver-x86@vger.kernel.org for it to be added to the
+list of devices that need this workaround, so in future kernel versions it's
+enabled automatically.
+
+Note that the current workaround isn't perfect: On some devices the problems still
+happen if resume is triggered by a timer (wakealarm).
