Since my initial report I updated the BIOS of this laptop: $ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date A19 11/14/2013
and today (after 8 days of uptime and perhaps 20 suspend/resume cycles) the bug reappeared: # /usr/lib/checkbox/bin/frequency_governors_test 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO System Capabilites: 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO ------------------------------------------------- 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO System has 4 cpus 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO Supported CPU Frequencies: 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO 2801 MHz 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO 2800 MHz 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO 2600 MHz 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO 2400 MHz 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO 2200 MHz 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO 2000 MHz 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO 1800 MHz 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO 1600 MHz 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO 1400 MHz 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO 1200 MHz 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO 1000 MHz 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO 800 MHz 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO Supported Governors: 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO conservative 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO ondemand 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO userspace 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO powersave 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO performance 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO Current governors: 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO cpu0: ondemand 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO cpu1: ondemand 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO cpu2: ondemand 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO cpu3: ondemand 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO Beginning Frequency Governors Testing 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO Userspace Governor Test: 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO ------------------------------------------------- 2014-01-23 12:09:52 INFO Setting governor to userspace 2014-01-23 12:10:22 INFO Setting CPU frequency to 800 MHz 2014-01-23 12:10:22 INFO Running CPU load test... 2014-01-23 12:10:22 INFO pid 4285's current affinity list: 0-3 2014-01-23 12:10:22 INFO pid 4285's new affinity list: 0 2014-01-23 12:10:23 INFO Minimum frequency load test time: 0.25 2014-01-23 12:10:23 INFO Setting CPU frequency to 2801 MHz 2014-01-23 12:10:23 INFO Running CPU load test... 2014-01-23 12:10:23 INFO pid 4285's current affinity list: 0 2014-01-23 12:10:23 INFO pid 4285's new affinity list: 0 2014-01-23 12:10:23 INFO Maximum frequency load test time: 0.05 2014-01-23 12:10:23 INFO Found ida flag, increasing expected speedup by 8.0% 2014-01-23 12:10:23 INFO CPU Frequency Speed Up: 3.81 2014-01-23 12:10:23 INFO Measured Speed Up: 5.00 2014-01-23 12:10:23 INFO Percentage Difference 31.4% 2014-01-23 12:10:23 ERROR Measured speedup vs expected speedup is 31.4% and is not within 10.0% margin. 2014-01-23 12:10:23 INFO On Demand Governor Test: 2014-01-23 12:10:23 INFO ------------------------------------------------- 2014-01-23 12:10:23 INFO Setting governor to ondemand 2014-01-23 12:10:23 INFO Waiting 5 seconds... 2014-01-23 12:10:28 INFO Done. 2014-01-23 12:10:28 INFO Running CPU load test... 2014-01-23 12:10:28 INFO pid 4285's current affinity list: 0 2014-01-23 12:10:28 INFO pid 4285's new affinity list: 0 2014-01-23 12:10:28 INFO On Demand load test time: 0.24 2014-01-23 12:10:28 INFO Percentage Difference vs. maximum frequency: 380.0% 2014-01-23 12:10:28 ERROR On demand performance vs maximum of 380.0% is not within 10.0% margin 2014-01-23 12:10:28 INFO Waiting 5 seconds... 2014-01-23 12:10:33 INFO Done. 2014-01-23 12:10:33 INFO Performance Governor Test: 2014-01-23 12:10:33 INFO ------------------------------------------------- 2014-01-23 12:10:33 INFO Setting governor to performance 2014-01-23 12:10:33 INFO Running CPU load test... 2014-01-23 12:10:33 INFO pid 4285's current affinity list: 0 2014-01-23 12:10:33 INFO pid 4285's new affinity list: 0 2014-01-23 12:10:33 INFO Performance load test time: 0.05 2014-01-23 12:10:33 INFO Percentage Difference vs. maximum frequency: 0.0% 2014-01-23 12:10:33 INFO Conservative Governor Test: 2014-01-23 12:10:33 INFO ------------------------------------------------- 2014-01-23 12:10:33 INFO Setting governor to conservative 2014-01-23 12:10:33 INFO Waiting 10 seconds... 2014-01-23 12:10:43 INFO Done. 2014-01-23 12:10:43 INFO Running CPU load test... 2014-01-23 12:10:43 INFO pid 4285's current affinity list: 0 2014-01-23 12:10:43 INFO pid 4285's new affinity list: 0 2014-01-23 12:10:44 INFO Conservative load test time: 0.24 2014-01-23 12:10:44 INFO Percentage Difference vs. minimum frequency: 4.0% 2014-01-23 12:10:44 INFO Restoring original governor to ondemand ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1264346 Title: [Dell Latitude E6520] After suspend, machine very slow with ondemand governor Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After several suspend/resume cycles and several days of uptime, using the ondemand governor the system is very slow to answer some inputs.
