[Bug 1067895] Re: 10ec:8176 rtl8192ce fails to recover after resume without shut down
Again, I have to take it back about the 3.2.33-030233 kernel. It COULD NOT reload the driver after suspend the second time. Actually, 2 out 3 times it didn't. I tried a few versions from the 3.2.* branch. None could get the driver back on resume /even with nm being restarted. Now I am not sure about the 3.3.8, 3.4.17,3.5.5,3.6.0 since 3.2.33 worked for one time. I am running 3.7-rc3 kernel and the driver never failed. Even though I now got the right stable git repository where all the revision kernels are, the rtlwifi commits are mixed up and one I can't pick up any signs.

I'd like to change the conclusion the 3.2.33-030233-generic-pae kernel, it turns out to have FIXED resume problem. What confused me at first, was another bug (fixed in most of the latest versions) to lock the system for a second or two when running service network-manager restart AMOF, I had a problem booting 3.0.51-030051-generic-pae and 3.2.0-32-generic-pae radeon bug 1069249 Actually, I don't think I will have more time working on this bug since it is not my laptop and that going through ALL kernels is not very productive and convenient way of testing for me.

The latter does not recover on resume, locks up system when rtl driver is reloaded. The logs get flooded with the message: rtl8192c_common: Loading firmware file rtlwifi/rtl8192cfw.bin As for the NON-precise kernels, the wireless recovers on resume (with both English or Russian default Languages).

gene, thank you for testing some of the mainline kernels.

I am not sure which of the commits tackle our issue... Due to how you are not sure which commit(s) may tackle this issue, one would want to focus on narrowing down the commit space via reverse bisecting mainline kernel versions. Here's the list of versions I decided to test: --- 3.4.17-030417-generic (quantal) --- 3.6.3-030603-generic (quantal) --- 3.6.5-030605-generic (raring) --- 3.2.33-030233-generic-pae (precise) All of the above EXCEPT 3.2.33 seem to have the fix. Ok. Consulting http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ , so far, we know that v3.2.33-precise is the newest mainline version known to not work, and --- 3.4.17-030417-generic (quantal) is the oldest version known to work. However, I beg your pardon as I'm having difficulty finding the location of kernel --- 3.4.17-030417-generic (quantal). Did you get this kernel from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.4.1-quantal/ ?

Christopher, 3.4.17-030417 is from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.4.17-quantal/ A far as that bisection analysis with of those kernels is concerned, it's quite a few kernels to try. BTW, can't we exclude some of them? Like 3.3 and 3.5 are marked as EOL on kernel.prg, so I don't see any reason trying any of those. As with the other ones, why would one try an earlier version, say 3.6.1 after 3.6.5, since it's almost always recommended to upgrade to the newest version anyways? However, if it is so important to find out where this particular fix was committed, I could instead try working through my local git repository.

A far as that bisection analysis with of those kernels is concerned, it's quite a few kernels to try. BTW, can't we exclude some of them? Like 3.3 and 3.5 are marked as EOL on kernel.prg, so I don't see any reason trying any of those. The fact a kernel is marked EOL on kernel.org is not a reason to not test it. One reverse bisects for the purposes of narrowing down the commit space in the fastest way possible. For more on reverse bisecting and it's benefits, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBisection . As with the other ones, why would one try an earlier version, say 3.6.1 after 3.6.5 See above. Once the commit is identified, ideally the commit is applied verbatim to the downstream Ubuntu kernel so your problem is resolved. , since it's almost always recommended to upgrade to the newest version anyways?

gene, thank you for testing the mainline kernel. Regarding your comments https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1067895/comments/6 : ...do you want me try some earlier versions... Finding the earliest mainline release that fixes the suspend problem would be helpful. Could you please do this? ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1067895 Title: 10ec:8176 rtl8192ce fails to recover after resume without shut down To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1067895/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Crashed on me after another suspend even with that workaround. Was using high cpu and Network manger soft locked up and got tainted by the kernel. This time it froze though and I SysRq.

[Bug 1067895] Re: 10ec:8176 rtl8192ce fails to recover after resume without shut down
Thanks Christopher, I will, when I have a chance. I did try 3.0.46-030046-generic-pae kernel and this problem is still there. As a matter of fact, I tried to change the language of the user account (to Russian) and every second resume from suspend ends up freezing the machine at the time when my resume script turns the network manger back on. Actually, the rtl8192ce would always freeze the system when it loads, this usually a couple second event. But with a different from English language setting of the the user's account, it hard locks the system completely!!?? Do you think I should file another bug report? I have no idea how the language setting could effect the behavior of the wireless driver. This is another more unexpected surprise to the one I have encountered with the timing of enabling/disabling connectivity with for the suspend. I have no clue and would appreciate any suggestions on this.

gene, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. Could you please provide the information following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspend ? As well, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the kernel in the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested and remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the text: needs-upstream-testing If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, please comment as to why specifically you were unable to test it and add the following tags: kernel-unable-to-test-upstream kernel-unable-to-test-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** Summary changed: - rtl8192ce fails to recover after resume without shut down + 10ec:8176 rtl8192ce fails to recover after resume without shut down ** Tags added: needs-upstream-testing resume suspend ** Description changed: I am helping a friend with this laptop Satellite C655D (PSC0YU-03G02C) running Ubuntu 12.04 uname -a: linux 3.2.0-32-generic-pae #51-Ubuntu SMP Wed Sep 26 21:54:23 UTC 2012 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux - - It also uses the infamous rtl8193ce driver.
