Package: thinkfan
Version: 0.7.3-1
Severity: important
Hello,
there is a problem when the system is suspended (either suspend to ram
or hibernate). When waking up, the daemon is sometimes dying silently,
which leaves the system without fan control.
The source of the problem is actually quite easy to spot; here is what
thinkfan is logging in syslog during the wake up process:
Mar 12 13:03:13 wintermuteII thinkfan: /proc/acpi/ibm/thermal: No such
file or directory
Mar 12 13:03:13 wintermuteII thinkfan: /proc/acpi/ibm/fan: No such file
or directory
Mar 12 13:03:13 wintermuteII thinkfan: Cleaning up and resetting fan
control.
Mar 12 13:03:13 wintermuteII thinkfan: /proc/acpi/ibm/fan: No such file
or directory
Note that these message are the very first in /var/log/syslog in the
waking up process, but also appears sometime at the end of the
suspending process. I don't know if this means that the event can occur
both during the suspending and the waking process, or if it always
occurs during the suspending process but sometimes logs itself during
the waking for some buffering reasons.
So it seems that during the suspending or waking up process, the
interfaces /proc/acpi/ibm/thermal and /proc/acpi/ibm/fan are temporarily
not accessible. If thinkfan is trying to connect to these files during
the process, then it simply dies. The "workaround" I perform is to check
after each wake up is thinkfan is still running, relaunching it by a
"sudo service thinkfan restart"
if dead. I didn't do any statistics, but I would say that it dies
something like 50% of the time, which is quite annoying (it is not a
just some unlucky timings).
Maybe the solution would be to give thinkfan some possibility to retry
to connect several times, at few seconds of interval, after it realized
that it lost connection, and then only dies after the trials. This
should enable thinkfan to survive to temporary loss of /proc/acpi/ibm/*
stuff, while avoiding it to run endlessly when they are not available at
all.
Thank you,
Raphaël
