[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1528735] Re: Suspend reboots every second time on Lenovo G50-45

2016-08-08 Thread Brad
In a nutshell, it looks to me like this feature was broken somewhere between 
kernel releases 3.16 (working) and 3.19 (not working), POSSIBLY in combination 
with having a machine that has a BIOS version newer than mid-2015 when  vendors 
updated their BIOS with the VU#976132 fix.  
  I'll try to reproduce the problem on kernels v3.17.1-utopic and v3.18-vivid.

2016-08-08 Thread Brad
@VaclavSynacek, someone needs to change the subject of this bug or merge
it into another/new one because it might get assumed that this problem
is specific to a Lenovo G50-45 or even Lenovo devices in general, and
hence not get the attention it deserves.  I don't believe that it is
specific to just Lenovo.  I've seen the exact problem symptoms (yellow
text warning on second suspend) reported on an HP Notebook and there's
prob others.

2016-08-08 Thread Brad
to summarize my findings with Linux Mint (LM), all with UEFI booting and 
the latest Lenovo BIOS: A2CN38WW(V2.06) 07/15/2015

I created fresh, default Live-USB boot disks using the 64bit Cinnamon
ISO's and here was my result:

LM18 Cinnamon (kernel 4.4) FAIL: fails on menu icon suspend. First attempt 
works OK, second attempt displays a bright yellow text message on black screen 
"Warning! boot script table is modified! Please contact your vendor." followed 
by auto cold-booting the system.
LM17.3 Cinnamon (kernel 3.19) FAIL - same as LM18
LM17.2 Cinnamon (kernel 3.16) SUCCESS - Works great! everything - menu icon 
click, power button, notebook lid open/close

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1528735] Re: Suspend reboots every second time on Lenovo G50-45

2016-08-08 Thread VaclavSynacek
I also upgraded several times since my report on 2016-02-24. I am convinced the 
bug is a combination of
  1) BIOS version (possible due to security fix of Vulnerability Note VU#976132 
mentioned above)
  2) Linux kernel in general (regardless of kernel version or distribution)
  3) boot in UEFI mode

Tests of various combinations of BIOS, distribution and kernel
underneath. "Cannot suspend" means can suspend once, but freezes on
second suspend and after hard restart prints "Warning!!! Boot script
table modified" boot message and freezes.

Lenovo S435, all boots in UEFI mode
  - BIOS BBCN16WW(V1.03)
  - Ubuntu mate 15.10 with kernel 4.2.0 => can suspend
  - Windows 8.1 => can suspend

  - since BIOS upgrade to BBCN16WW(V1.07)
  - Windows 8.1 => is unaffected and still can suspend
  - Ubuntu mate 15.10
  - with kernel 4.2.x => cannot suspend
  - Debian testing 
  - with kernel 4.3.x => cannot suspend
  - with kernel 4.4.x => cannot suspend
  - with kernel 4.5.x => cannot suspend
  - with kernel 4.6.x => cannot suspend
  - OpenBSD 5.9 => completely fails to suspend even the first time, 
possibly due to unrelated issues or my incompetence (I will report progress if 
I manage to get it to suspend at least once)

Next I'll test with a fresh live-USB version of Linux Mint 17.3 (kernel
3.19) to try to narrow down the problem.  I'm not expecting it to work
since I've already reproduced the problem on LM 17.3 installed to HD.

2016-08-07 Thread Brad
OK, I just tested with a Live-USB disk of Linux Mint 17.2 Cinnamon
(kernel 3.16) newly burned from the ISO file and suspend/resume works
great. Multiple times in a row, from the shutdown icon, from the power
button, and from the notebook lid close/open. So this is either Kernel
or distro dependant and perhaps not related to the BIOS version as I
thought. I tested this from a Live-USB of Linux Mint 18 Cinnamon (kernel
4.4) and it DOES NOT work, it has the same problem - first
suspend/resume works fine, then upon second suspend it displays the
yellow text warning and reboots the system at the BIOS level.

Re: Crash upon suspend. Message: Boot Script Table modified.

"I have been installing different linux distros on my HP Envy and all
have the same problem: sleep once, fine; sleep again, and it will not
recover with a black screen, where upon on reboot (the only option with
a hardware reboot) i get the error message 'boot script table modified'.
Not only does this happen to linux distros, i have had it happen to
windows 10 clean install. I just installed windows 10 to an ssd and
added bodhi linux as a uefi boot. Just put windows to sleep (for the
first time after rebooting) after playing an old XP game (Neverwinter
Nights) and it gave the same problem. Does that help you analyze it? I
can test theories, if anyone has one.

OK, i tried ubuntu, thinking that i heard they paid microsoft for uefi,
so maybe it would handle awaking from sleep better. No it doesn't. Then
i tried robolinux, which is a debian release but also booted up with the
cd with a legacy boot instead of uefi booting from the cd, and it can
sleep just fine. i am assuming it is the legacy boot. Thoughts?"

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1528735] Re: Suspend reboots every second time on Lenovo G50-45

2016-08-07 Thread Brad
I'm seeing this problem on various versions of Linux Mint from v17.3
Cinnamon with kernel 3.19 to v18 Mate with kernel 4.4 or 4.7.  Apart
from the OP problem description of symptoms with yellow text console
warning message, I have suspicion that this problem is also causing the
more severe problem with kernel 4.7 that even the first suspend/resume
results in a system lockup/freeze upon attempting to resume.  I think it
may be important to first determine if this problem is specific to a
machine and it's BIOS version. In this case I believe we are talking
mostly, if not only, about Lenovo machines (like mine).  I think it is
possible this is a result of a BIOS update by Lenovo to fix a security
hole described below.  That said, my notebook's info is below. Note the
BIOS version and date.  Also note that the security hole (UEFI
implementations do not properly secure the EFI S3 Resume Boot Path boot
script) is not specific to Lenovo and MANY vendors would have had to
make a similar patch - which might explain suspend/resume problems
reported by various people with other notebook brands. More info can be
found on my LM formum thread:

Title:
  Suspend reboots every second time on Lenovo G50-45

Status in pm-utils package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Fresh install of Xubuntu 14.04.3, replacing existing OEM Windows 10.
  Install detected UEFI, and installed in UEFI mode. (I have attempted
  to change to legacy boot, and got it to a state where it was booting
  without /sys/firmware/efi/ being present, but behaviour persisted.)

  Suspending the laptop, whether by closing the lid, choosing the
  suspend option from the menu, or directly typing "sudo pm-suspend"
  works perfectly well... once.

  The second attempt to suspend, whether immediately or hours later,
  suspends the laptop (I can see the screen turn off, and hear the disk
  and fans stop, but a moment later the screen shows bright yellow
  console text declaring "Warning!!! Boot script table modified!!!
  Please contact your vendor.", and then it hard reboots.

  This appears to be a weird interaction between suspend and UEFI
  protection, but others have reported that they have had working
  suspend when installed alone (and presumably in legacy from the
  start), but this behaviour appeared when reinstalled as dual-boot
  (when presumably UEFI would have had to be on).

2016-02-24 Thread VaclavSynacek
I have the same problem on Lenovo S435 and ubuntu-mate 15.10 on 
4.2.0-30-generic x86_64 dual boot with Windows 8.1.
But this problem started only after bios update from BBCN16WW(V1.03) to 
BBCN16WW(V1.07). With the previous bios V1.03 this never happened, even with 
the same kernel.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1528735] Re: Suspend reboots every second time on Lenovo G50-45

2016-02-19 Thread David Cameron Staples
Just updated to 4.2.0-27-generic #32~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP, and this is
still an issue.

This may not actually be directly related to pm-suspend, but I put it
here for lack of a better proximate cause. This may need to be
transferred to be a kernel bug.

I suspect it may be related to  a reaction to
http://www.intelsecurity.com/advanced-threat-
research/content/WP_Intel_ATR_S3_ResBS_Vuln.pdf

It can be reproduced by putting Ubuntu of just about any recent version
onto a Lenovo G50-45, and suspending it twice.
