I started to test it now and I will try to have an uptime of
more than 7 days in order to have a veridict.

[ The problem is that I started to encounter a dvb-related issue
  which requires me to reboot after trying to watch tv, so let's wee
  what happens. ]

  I'm seeing this again right now.  I'm wondering if it's because I'm
  running on battery power at the moment:
 
  [41694.309264] ACPI Exception: AE_TIME, Returned by Handler for

  [41694.809093] ACPI: EC: input buffer is not empty, aborting

  ec_storm_threshold is still set to 8 in 
  /sys/module/acpi/parameters/ so that's
  not the issue here.
 
   And also loadavg is too high ~ 10
   While there is no process that load CPU up to 100% or like that.
   I think that this because of processes that is done in kernel 
   space.
   (basically that one who write such errors)

  Ah, ok, that means it's not something new in 3.7-rc, so maybe it's 
  just never
  worked properly for this hardware :)
 
  So it's not a regression, just an ACPI issue, any ACPI developer 
  have an idea
  about this?

 Can you please send the output of acpidump from the affected 
 machine(s)?
   
# ./acpidump
ACPI tables were not found. If you know location of RSD PTR table 
(from dmesg, etc), supply it with either --addr or -a option
   
What am I doing wrong here?
   
Is there a newer version of pmtools than the one labled 
pmtools-20071116
that I should be using?  A link to download it would be appreciated.
  
   I'd like to ask what happened to this issue, because I'm seeing similar
   messages on latest 3.8-rc4 as well, and I cannot read the battery
   info anymore once this happens and the laptop does not suspend to RAM
   anymore -- it suspends fine before these messages.
  
   The laptop is a Macbook Pro with retina display and I'm using the
   develpoment version of openSUSE 12.3 updated as of yesterday.
  
   Here is the output from dmesg:

I'd like to ask what happened to this issue, because I'm seeing similar
messages on latest 3.8-rc4 as well, and I cannot read the battery
info anymore once this happens and the laptop does not suspend to RAM
anymore -- it suspends fine before these messages.

The laptop is a Macbook Pro with retina display and I'm using the
develpoment version of openSUSE 12.3 updated as of yesterday.

Here is the output from dmesg:

[49367.993080] ACPI: EC: input buffer is not empty, aborting transaction

   ec_storm_threshold is still set to 8 in /sys/module/acpi/parameters/ so 
   that's
   not the issue here.
   
And also loadavg is too high ~ 10
While there is no process that load CPU up to 100% or like that.
I think that this because of processes that is done in kernel space.

   Ah, ok, that means it's not something new in 3.7-rc, so maybe it's just 
   never
   worked properly for this hardware :)
   
   So it's not a regression, just an ACPI issue, any ACPI developer have an

  Can you please send the output of acpidump from the affected machine(s)?

 What am I doing wrong here?
 
 Is there a newer version of pmtools than the one labled pmtools-20071116
 that I should be using?  A link to download it would be appreciated.

I'd like to ask what happened to this issue, because I'm seeing similar
messages on latest 3.8-rc4 as well, and I cannot read the battery
info anymore once this happens and the laptop does not suspend to RAM
anymore -- it suspends fine before these messages.

The laptop is a Macbook Pro with retina display and I'm using the
develpoment version of openSUSE 12.3 updated as of yesterday.

Here is the output from dmesg:

Is there a newer version of pmtools than the one labled pmtools-20071116

   I'd like to ask what happened to this issue, because I'm seeing similar

Update: laptop don't resume working not only after a long time held in suspend,
but also after a short period of time for example 3 minutes.
As for a long time - it about 24-36 hours.

 Thanks for the info.

 And per my check, most of ACPI FW don't implement this lock, say
 after driver probe, the ec-global_lock will be 0.


 The DSDT is supposed to define the _GLK control method on the EC if the BIOS
 needs to perform its own access which may conflict with the OS usage. If it
 doesn't, then it should be the case that either the BIOS doesn't touch the
 EC itself or it uses a separate interface that doesn't cause conflicts with
 what the OS is doing.

 Ah, ok, that means it's not something new in 3.7-rc, so maybe it's
 just never worked properly for this hardware :)

 So it's not a regression, just an ACPI issue, any ACPI developer
 have an idea about this?


 Can you please send the output of acpidump from the affected

 I doubt this problem is sometimes inevitable for some machines, because
 AFAIK most modern machines have the race problem for EC HW controller,
 as
 both OS side and the BIOS may access the EC HW at the same time
 without any race control.

 For this case, usually the battery and thermal modules (which may be
 controlled through EC) are always monitored by BIOS, when OS also
 frequently visit them too, the EC's own state machine may be broken and
 not responsive due to the race, then cause the timeout error.
 And how severe the problem will be depends on the EC HW, the quality of
 BIOS code and OS/driver code.

 Myself have seen the similar ACPI: EC: input

Update: laptop don't resume working not only after a long time held in suspend,
but also after a short period of time for example 3 minutes.
As for a long time - it about 24-36 hours.

 And I don't see such messages any more.
 But another problem surfaced - laptop can't resume working after a
 long time held in suspend,
 end there is not messages in kern.log about that laptop trying to resume.

 Thanks for the info.

 And per my check, most of ACPI FW don't implement this lock, say
 after driver probe, the ec-global_lock will be 0.


 The DSDT is supposed to define the _GLK control method on the EC if the BIOS
 needs to perform its own access which may conflict with the OS usage. If it
 doesn't, then it should be the case that either the BIOS doesn't touch the
 EC itself or it uses a separate interface that doesn't cause conflicts with
 what the OS is doing.

Robert, thanks.

I have such message again, and load avg up to 30, and the increase up
to 40, after to 50.

I found this https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14733
and I after I compile kernel with this patch write message about results.

Also I want to note that after I suspend laptop to ~20-15 minutes and
resume, it works fine.
And no such spam in log.

But after this hack if open lid, laptop not exit from suspend mode,
for exit from it, I must manually press key on keyboard.
I try to restart acpid, laptop-mode but nothing of this helped me.

Re: ACPI errors with 3.7-rc3

2012-11-14 Thread Azat Khuzhin
Robert, thanks.

I have such message again, and load avg up to 30, and the increase up
to 40, after to 50.

I found this https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14733
and I after I compile kernel with this patch write message about results.

Also I want to note that after I suspend laptop to ~20-15 minutes and
resume, it works fine.
And no such spam in log.

But after this hack if open lid, laptop not exit from suspend mode,
for exit from it, I must manually press key on keyboard.
I try to restart acpid, laptop-mode but nothing of this helped me.

Actually, it is not the address of the global lock, the FACS contains the 
actual global lock:

From acpi5.0 spec:

ROM BIOS. The Global Lock is a 32-bit (DWORD) value in read/write memory 
located within the FACS and is accessed and updated by both the OS environment 
and the SMI environment in a defined manner to provide an exclusive lock. Note:

Re: ACPI errors with 3.7-rc3

2012-11-11 Thread Azat Khuzhin
Robert,

You say that FACS table contains the address of the global lock.
But in my case https://gist.github.com/4037687 it seems to be empty,
so this means that my laptop don't have global lock?

 Take a look at the FACS table, it contains the address of the global lock.

 I believe that the ACPI specification requires that the global lock be 
 present.

 I'm seeing this again right now.  I'm wondering if it's because
 I'm running on battery power at the moment:

 ec_storm_threshold is still set to 8 in
 /sys/module/acpi/parameters/ so that's not the issue here.

  And also loadavg is too high ~ 10 While there is no process
  that load CPU up to 100% or like that.
  I think that this because of processes that is done in kernel
 space.

 Ah, ok, that means it's not something new in 3.7-rc, so maybe
 it's just never worked properly for this hardware :)

 So it's not a regression, just an ACPI issue, any ACPI developer
 have an idea about this?
   
Can you please send the output of acpidump from the affected
 machine(s)?
  
   I doubt this problem is sometimes inevitable for some machines,
   because AFAIK most modern machines have the race problem for EC HW
   controller, as both OS side and the BIOS may access the EC HW at the
   same time without any race control.
  
   For this case, usually the battery and thermal modules

Thanks for the info.

And per my check, most of ACPI FW don't implement this lock, say
after driver probe, the ec->global_lock will be 0.

The ACPI Global Lock is in fact intended to provide exclusion between the BIOS

I doubt this problem is sometimes inevitable for some machines, because
AFAIK most modern machines have the race problem for EC HW controller, 
as both OS side and the BIOS may access the EC HW at the same time
without any race control.   

For this case, usually the battery and thermal modules (which may be
controlled through EC) are always monitored by BIOS, when OS also
frequently visit them too, the EC's own state machine may be broken
and not responsive due to the race, then cause the timeout error. 
And how severe the problem will be depends on the EC HW, the quality
of BIOS code and OS/driver code. 

Myself have seen the similar "ACPI: EC: input buffer is not empty,
aborting transaction" error message on one laptop when its EC is
busy visited by OS.

btw, in EC driver I see a "ec->global_lock", don't know if it was
designed to control the race between OS and BIOS.

Thanks,
Feng

Thanks for the info.

And per my check, most of ACPI FW don't implement this lock, say
after driver probe, the ec-global_lock will be 0.

  without any race control.
  
  For this case, usually the battery and thermal modules (which may be
  controlled through EC) are always monitored by BIOS, when OS also
  frequently visit them too, the EC's own state machine may be broken and
  not responsive due to the race, then cause the timeout error.
  And how severe the problem will be depends on the EC HW, the quality of
  BIOS code and OS/driver code.
  
  Myself have seen the similar ACPI: EC: input buffer is not empty,
  aborting transaction error message on one laptop when its EC is busy
  visited by OS.
  
  btw, in EC driver I see a ec-global_lock, don't know if it was designed
  to control the race between OS and BIOS.
  
  Thanks,
  Feng

RE: ACPI errors with 3.7-rc3

2012-11-09 Thread Moore, Robert
 And per my check, most of ACPI FW don't implement this lock, say after
 driver probe, the ec-global_lock will be 0

Take a look at the FACS table, it contains the address of the global lock.

I believe that the ACPI specification requires that the global lock be present.

 ec_storm_threshold is still set to 8 in

On my system, which is a reasonably current Tumbleweed, acpidump is in the
acpica-20120518-7.1.2.x86_64 package.

   running on battery power at the moment:

   ec_storm_threshold is still set to 8 in /sys/module/acpi/parameters/ so 
   that's
   not the issue here.
   
And also loadavg is too high ~ 10
While there is no process that load CPU up to 100% or like that.
I think that this because of processes that is done in kernel space.

# ./acpidump
ACPI tables were not found. If you know location of RSD PTR table (from dmesg, 
etc), supply it with either --addr or -a option

What am I doing wrong here?

Is there a newer version of pmtools than the one labled pmtools-20071116
that I should be using?  A link to download it would be appreciated.

 Can you please send the output of acpidump from the affected machine(s)?

# ./acpidump
ACPI tables were not found. If you know location of RSD PTR table (from dmesg, 
etc), supply it with either --addr or -a option

What am I doing wrong here?

Is there a newer version of pmtools than the one labled pmtools-20071116
that I should be using?  A link to download it would be appreciated.

ec_storm_threshold is still set to 8 in /sys/module/acpi/parameters/ so that's
not the issue here.

 ACPI: EC: Make the GPE storm threshold a module parameter

 Can you please check if reverting the second one helps?

 That last one seems like it would be it, if the module parameter got
 changed.  And now I can't duplicate it at all, 3.7-rc3 works fine.  Ick,
 sorry for the noise, I don't know what happened.  If I see the above
 errors again, I'll let you know, and I'll also check the ec module

ec_storm_threshold is still set to 8 in /sys/module/acpi/parameters/ so that's
not the issue here.

 And also loadavg is too high ~ 10
 While there is no process that load CPU up to 100% or like that.
 I think that this because of processes that is done in kernel space.

Ah, ok, that means it's not something new in 3.7-rc, so maybe it's just never
worked properly for this hardware :)

So it's not a regression, just an ACPI issue, any ACPI developer have an idea
about this?

That last one seems like it would be it, if the module parameter got
changed.  And now I can't duplicate it at all, 3.7-rc3 works fine.  Ick,
sorry for the noise, I don't know what happened.  If I see the above
errors again, I'll let you know, and I'll also check the ec module
parameter first to ensure it didn't change from the default of 8.
