Why isn't disable_workarounds inside amd_pmc_quirk_need_suspend_delay() ?

It would be clearer what's going on here if these two checks are clearly 
separated.

As is, the comment confuses if it's only meant for the 2nd check.

One of the checks will be in amd_pmc_quirk_need_suspend_delay() and the 
other (the existing one + the comment) should be moved in to own function 
(perhaps in a patch preceeding this one) so it's clear the reasoning is 
different(?). You can check the commit that introduced msleep(2500) here
for details about the existing check.

Because disable_workarounds is a static variable in pmc.c and
amd_pmc_quirk_need_suspend_delay() is implemented in pmc-quirks.c

Ok, I'll move that check for the existing workaround into its own 
function to make it more clear what is happening

While doing this and thinking learning more about this old patch I had a
realization:
The existing code does this 2.5s sleep before every suspend *except* for
the very first one after a (re)boot!

(Except on CPUs that don't have this metrics table (AMD_CPU_ID_PCO) or
some edge case when pdev->smu_virt_addr is NULL and can't be set with
amd_pmc_setup_smu_logging())

This by the way explains why in the rare cases suspend randomly worked
as intended on my machine (even without my patch) it kept on working in
subsequent suspends, until rebooting.

Anyway, radical idea: What if we just ALWAYS SLEEP for 2.5 seconds here?

I don't think the special case of the very first suspend after boot
justifies all the complexity of the existing checks *and* the conditions
I'm adding.

That's not how it works - it only applies the 2.5s delay when it has 
reached HW sleep and needs to start a second HW sleep cycle.

That is something like this:
  * close the lid
  * suspend sequence starts
  * (no extra sleep)
  * enter HW sleep
  * plug in ac adapter
  * EC SCI fires
  * exits HW sleep
  * kernel decides to go back to HW sleep (no other interrupts active)
  * (extra sleep here)
  * enter HW sleep
  * open lid
  * exit HW sleep
  * resume sequence
  * back in OS

And that is how every cycle after a reboot works.  So this would be the 
second sequence if you tried to suspend again.

  * close the lid
  * suspend sequence starts
  * (no extra sleep)
  * enter HW sleep
  * open lid
  * exit HW sleep
  * resume sequence
  * back in OS

The reason for that 2.5s delay on second HW sleep is described in that 
commit message.  It's specifically to mitigate a case that a voltage 
regulator gets too much voltage from the rapid swings in and out of HW 
sleep rapidly.

It should not be applied every single cycle unless it's needed (such as 
this bug you found with the EC race).

Now you might have been confused by not looking at commit 
4dbd11796f3a8eb95647507befc41995458a4023.  This fixes the behavior as 
it's supposed to be.

Are you sure it behaves like this?
The check is basically "is the SMU table's s0i3_last_entry_status != 0".
And as far as I can tell this is the case after every successful suspend,
it only seems to be reset by rebooting or if a suspend fails.

See smu_fw_info_show() (for /sys/kern/debug/amd_pmc/smu_fw_info): 
seq_printf(s, "Last S0i3 Status: %s\n", table.s0i3_last_entry_status ? "Success" :
		   "Unknown/Fail");

When I read /sys/kern/debug/amd_pmc/smu_fw_info right after booting, it prints 
"Last S0i3 Status: Unknown/Fail"
After resuming, even minutes (and presumably hours) later, it prints
"Last S0i3 Status: Success"
indicating that s0i3_last_entry_status still is != 0.

First suspend entry:

amd_pmc_s2idle_prepare()
->amd_pmc_setup_smu_logging()
->->memset_io(dev->smu_virt_addr, 0, sizeof(struct smu_metrics))

That is the table is cleared.

amd_pmc_s2idle_check()
->get_metrics_table() && table.s0i3_last_entry_status

The table is fetched and check (last entry will be 0).
No delay.

At this point system is in hardware sleep.

If system resumes from hardware sleep table.s0i3_last_entry_status will 
be non-zero.

If you re-enter:

amd_pmc_s2idle_check() will do the msleep.

If you exit:

amd_pmc_s2idle_restore()
-> amd_pmc_validate_deepest()

This will read metrics table and tell you in logs if you didn't get to 
HW sleep.

Ah, now I get it - sorry for the confusion!
I somehow missed that amd_pmc_setup_smu_logging() is called at each
amd_pmc_s2idle_prepare() - my mistake.

There goes the simple solution :-/

Generally speaking; I don't like new module parameters.

Since this is purely for debugging purposes and is going to hopefully 
lead to a new patch; how about if it's done in debugfs?

I have a couple reasons I say this.

1. If you make it "too easy" to make the kernel command line permanent 
people won't report bugs and they never get fixed.

2. It needs to become ABI essentially forever, even if we found out some 
day this was actually something we can fix with other kernel changes 
instead.

But then the problem arguing in the direction of a module parameter is 
discoverability of this debugging knob.  And for that; I would suggest 
to add a bullet here: https://docs.kernel.org/arch/x86/amd-debugging.html

Then when people report this problem we can point them to that document 
indicating they can use it.

Rather than telling them to report to platform-driver-x86@ in the module 
parameter description I would suggest you should be putting it in this 
message.  I think that's what some other drivers do when they want 
people to report bugs.

Sorry, I don't think this makes a difference.
Even people using a bleeding-edge distro like Arch Linux will have to
wait at least a month or so after reporting their device until a stable
kernel with that quirk is released and that kernel lands in their
distro. Much longer for users of more traditional distros.

No one wants to have a broken laptop for months if it can be avoided, so
they'd make that workaround permanent either way, it's just more
annoying to do when it's in debugfs.

If someone reports the bug it's because they think it's the right thing
to do (and maybe because the module parameter or dmesg message asked
them to), not because the workaround requires a systemd unit instead of
a kernel parameter.

Does it? prefer_microsoft_dsm_guid was removed, did that break anything?

So far I've missed that document - it certainly looks like a good place
to document the issue and workaround.

Side-Note: "18.10. Random reboot issues" sounds interesting, I guess it
would be helpful to document how that value can be read or identified in
dmesg ;)

OK.  I'd say up to the driver maintainers to decide which way to go.

Yeah; whatever direction is agreed upon (module parameter or debugfs), 
please update the document for a section about it.

"This information is read by the kernel at bootup and printed into the 
syslog".

Do you mean actually outputting the prefix of the message in this document?

This is a sample message from my local machine.

x86/amd: Previous system reset reason [0x00080800]: software wrote 0x6 
to reset control register 0xCF9

I have no qualms with this - feel free to send a patch if you're 
touching it already anyways.

By doing this, you added overlap between disable_workarounds and 
delay_suspend. It gets confusing.

Ok, will change, I didn't know this - I thought at least in case of
hardware-specific changes it's not clear if the author of a patch even
has the hardware to test it, so it's not necessarily implied.

I think this confusion primarily stems from having one variable
(disable_workarounds) that disables all quirks, instead of a way
to individually disable (or enable/enforce) them.

But disable_workarounds is already there so I try to behave consistently.
