Suspend and resume on ASUS Laptops

Suspend and resume on ASUS Laptops

[Steven Rostedt]

For Black Friday I bought myself a ASUS-U56E-RBL8 at Staples for a
decent price. I installed Linux on it but it would not suspend. It would
always hang with the hard drive light on, as well as other leds and the
power light.

Searching the web, I found this link:

http://thecodecentral.com/2011/01/18/fix-ubuntu-10-10-suspendhibernate-not-working-bug

That talks about adding a script found here:

http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=10359462&postcount=47

I added the script and sure enough, my suspend and even resume now work.

Before using this script, I've tried this on latest Debian testing and
with the latest Linus kernel (as of last night), and it didn't work. But
with this script, it works there and also with Debian stable and 3.0.10
kernel. (I hate gnome3 and lack of gnome2 so I created a separate
partition to run Debian testing, but I'm back to Debian stable).

The reason I'm writing you is, can we fix this without needing this
script?  Is there a modification to pm-suspend, or something that can
handle these laptops?

It just seems crazy to have everyday users add this script.

Thanks,

Now, that's interesting, but I would lie if I said I knew what it was
actually doing, so let me add some USB people to the CC list.

I totally agree, I had no idea it was necessary.

What errors are seen in the kernel log?

Without the script, I don't see any errors. Is there some debug thing
you want me to do? There's no error messages but the system just hangs
on suspend. It never makes it to the suspend state. The only way out of
it is to press and hold the power button for 10 seconds to force a hard
reboot.

Now when I add the script, I get the following messages from the kernel
for a full suspend/resume:

Let me know if there's any more info you need. I could also perform
other debugging tasks for you too. Just let me know what you want me to
do.

I see. I thought the system just refuses to enter S3/4. That it hangs was
new to me. Has there been a mail thread about this problem already?
If not, what is the last thing you see if you go to S3 after you booted
with no_console_suspend on the kernel command line?

Hi Steven,
Since without the script your system refuses to suspend, you could also use the
'pm_test' framework (documented in Documentation/power/basic-pm-debugging.txt)
to find out more about the failing step when suspend is attempted without using
the script. Trying 'echo devices > /sys/power/pm_test' might be helpful in your
case.

No idea, but I did reference a website that posted this fix. I'm not
sure how the fix came about, or what discussions were done. The fix
seems to have been made by Ubuntu, which means its just another thing
they looked at without sending upstream :-p

Hmm, no_console_suspend on the kernel command line seems to do nothing.
It still hangs hard without the script, and suspend works fine with the
script.

I noticed that /sys/module/printk/parameters/console_suspend doesn't
exist. Am I missing a kernel config option?

Interesting, all the pm_tests work. Even core. But when I switch it to
'none' it locks up.

If I just remove the ehci_hcd module, it suspends fine, so the issue is
with this module (or some usb device). There seems to be two devices
under ehci_hcd, and I played with the script to only unbind one at a
time. If I only unbind one (either one) it still hangs. I need to unbind
both for the suspend to work.

Without the script, here's the dmesg from the suspend to resume using
pm_test == core.

On  2011-04-16 I filed a pretty similar bug report in Red Hat bugzilla.
It sits here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=697150
still as ASSIGNED.  A kernel was based on 2.6.35 running on Asus K52Jc
but the problem really looks the same.  Assorted additional information
is attached to that bugzilla entry.  There is also
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=675564

After all modifications described in my report, which included adding a line
SUSPEND_MODULES="xhci_hcd sdhci_pci sdhci"
in /etc/pm/config.d/hci.cfg I never had suspend/hibernate issues
again.  As a matter of fact I forgot about the problem. :-)

It's possible that this problem is related to wakeup settings.  Have 
you tried disabling wakeup for the EHCI controllers?

This certainly appears to be some sort of bug in the firmware.  Finding 
it and working around it isn't likely to be easy.  Unbinding (or 
unloading) ehci-hcd may indeed be the path of least resistance.

I'm totally ignorant of the inner workings of suspend to ram and how
devices deal with it. How do I disable wakeup for the EHCI controllers?

Also, does wakeup have anything to do with suspend. As the name
suggests, it sounds like its more of a resume thing. But again, I'm
ignorant when it comes to these matters. I just want to point out that
without the script, the machine never makes it to a suspend state.

I wounder what windows does. Of course, vendors bend over backwards for
MS, so it may not need to do much, or MS does something completely
different. I do have this still as a dual boot with Windows7. I don't
wipe my boxes clean of windows anymore. If I have to pay the damn MS
tax, I might as well keep what I paid for :-p

Take a look at the two files

	/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:1[ad].0/power/wakeup

If they contain the word "enabled", write "disabled" to them.  See 
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-power.

The wakeup setting affects the hardware, which could cause the system 
to hang.  And of course, the wakeup setting has to be installed in the 
hardware during the suspend procedure, so that it will remain in effect 
while the system is asleep.

As in many other cases, it would be nice to know.

The files do exist, but they are already set to "disabled".

But it is nice to have to double check if things are screwed up on it
too.

Bummer.  This sounds like something for the ACPI/BIOS people to work

On my ASUS K52Jc these controllers are also reported "disabled".  This
is after switching to Fedora 16 with its 3.1.2-1 kernel.

After doing these updates I had also to add "ath ath9k" to my list of
SUSPEND_MODULES (which are removed and reinserted in these operations)
or otherwise I will loose my wireless connection on a resume and a
reboot after hibernate will silently die.  In logs I can find

These "irq 17: nobody cared" were happening before but I could get away
without touching ath and aht9k modules.

This should have been fixed in commit a7d5b76 (jme: fix irq storm after
suspend/resume) -- at least it worked on my own laptop (K52JT).

I mean that you asked Steven about a content of
/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:00\:1[ad].0/power/wakeup
On my ASUS K52Jc these ids also happen to belong to ehci_hcd devices
(both "Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset USB2 Enhanced Host
Controller") and both 'wakeup' files show "disabled" too.

With that above I have to do all these manipulations with unbinding
and binding drivers and removing inserting modules or a laptop will hang
after a suspend.  Now with a recent kernel I need additionally put
wireless driver modules on a "special handling" list or I will loose
such connection (no hang here, just a dead driver).

All of this looks like pretty consistent, from what one can find on the
net, across various models of ASUS laptops.

Oh, sorry -- I didn't realize you meant the power/wakeup file contained 
"disabled".  It sounded like you were saying that the controllers were 
somehow disabled.

Yes, apparently ASUS's recent chipsets or firmware has a problem with
suspend and resume.  On the other hand, I'm writing this on an ASUS
UL20A laptop, which suspends and resumes with no difficulty.

I wonder, though, who figured out what quirk to use before suspend on those
particular machines and on what basis (some information from the vendor or
what?).

Is "USB legacy emulation" enabled in the BIOS? That caused problems
before...

Yes it was set. I turned it off and removed the script but it still
failed to suspend. It locked up the exact same way with that option
enabled.
