[Bug 827558] Re: toshiba_acpi unable to load on TOSHIBA SATELLITE C670-10V
Thank you Seth for some reference. I have found informations about writing WMI drivers very interesting and have started creation of such module especially for my laptop. I have decompiled MOF object found in DSDT and its interface definition gave me some hope for a quick solution (it is very ugly implementation, I saw better ones). I will contact with you when I will have something working on my machine. Currently I'm creating implementation for this interface with use of kernel acpi/wmi methods. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/827558 Title: toshiba_acpi unable to load on TOSHIBA SATELLITE C670-10V To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/827558/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The buffer in question is only used for some types of events, like hotkeys (I'm not sure what other types of events it's used for, but it's obvious from the DSDT that it expects other types of events). The only method that clears out the data in that buffer is the one we're already using to get the hotkey data. Another interesting thing that's perhaps worth noting is that the WMI interface doesn't appear to use the buffer in the same way -- it just sticks the most recent event in the first entry of the buffer and then reads back only that entry. So if the WMI interface was supported it shouldn't suffer from the same problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/827558 Title: toshiba_acpi unable to load on TOSHIBA SATELLITE C670-10V To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/827558/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

That problem _should_ be completely unrelated to your hotkeys, it's just that Toshiba has another bug in their AML code for getting battery information. But I have no explanation as to why this would get your hotkeys working -- it's possible it was just coincidence, but I don't really know.

[Bug 827558] Re: toshiba_acpi unable to load on TOSHIBA SATELLITE C670-10V
Okay, I think I have an idea of what's going on in the situation from comment #57. When you load the module without the hotkey support, events can still be happening but they never get read from the bios. By the time you've unloaded the old module and loaded the new one, enough events have come in to completely fill the bios's buffer, therefore when you start reading events all of the objects have been initialized and reading the events does not trigger the exception. Unfortunately, that doesn't help us work around your issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/827558 Title: toshiba_acpi unable to load on TOSHIBA SATELLITE C670-10V To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/827558/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Let me make sure I understand. If you first load an older version of toshiba_acpi without hotkey support, unload it, then load a version with hotkey support, you never see the AML exception messages? But if you load the version with hotkey support first, then you see the errors? That is interesting.

The DSDT has a sort of buffer to store up to 100 events, but it's really more like a group of 100 uninitialized objects than a buffer. Every time you read an event, it pulls the first object from the buffer then iterates over the rest of the objects, copying each item to the previous position. The exception happens when the DSDT tries to access an uninitialized object from the buffer, one that hasn't been previously written, to copy it to the previous position. If you're able to fill up the buffer, every object will get initialized to some value, and I suspect the problem goes away. So I'm guessing that what you're doing is generating events faster than they're being read (or something along those lines), eventually filling the buffer, at which point the exception stops happening. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/827558 Title: toshiba_acpi unable to load on TOSHIBA SATELLITE C670-10V To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/827558/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I did some debugging of your DSDT, and it's doing an operation that appears to be in violation of the ACPI specification, analogous to a null pointer dereference in C. It may be that the Windows AML interpreter allows this, but the one in Linux does not and throws the exceptions you've been seeing in your logs. I still need to work out what to do about this; it may be that blacklisting the use of hotkeys for this model is the only option. At any rate I don't think it will be possible to get hotkey support for your machine, short of creating a driver for the WMI interface. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/827558 Title: toshiba_acpi unable to load on TOSHIBA SATELLITE C670-10V To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/827558/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

You need a new ticket for the failure to resume from suspend. Your original report indicates that you see the problem when toshiba_acpi isn't loaded, so it can't be to blame.

Note that I think there's a better solution than a timeout -- the driver can detect upfront whether or not HCI_SYSTEM_EVENT is supported and choose not to use it. Probably the INFO method can be used like on other devices that use NTFY, but they will need to be decoupled because your machine doesn't support NTFY in the same way.

On most Toshibas I've seen the backlight interface toshiba_acpi uses is read-only, and that's the case on your model. I've verified in your DSDT that writing the backlight level isn't supported. toshiba_acpi will not be able to control your backlight. The acpi_video backlight driver doesn't work on your machine?

Looked into source, it looks like it is caused by Fn key signalled with funny value, which makes kernel go into ugly endless loop.

[Bug 827558] Re: toshiba_acpi unable to load on TOSHIBA SATELLITE C670-10V
gluth: This should be fixed in the 12.04 release. The basic support for toshiba_acpi on these machines is working, and I'm still working on support for other features, hotkeys in particular. If you'd like to help with testing, I've set up a PPA with experimental changes to the driver that you can subscribe to. Be warned that things may be broken from time to time. To subscribe, run the following commands in a terminal: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sforshee/toshiba-acpi-dkms sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install toshiba-acpi-dkms sudo modprobe toshiba_acpi Let me know whether or not the module loads successfully, and whether your backlight and hotkeys are working with the experimental driver. Also let me know if you see any problems.

[Bug 827558] Re: toshiba_acpi unable to load on TOSHIBA SATELLITE C670-10V
gluth: You need to limit each bug report to a single problem. You've reported four here: toshiba_acpi won't load, unable to wake from sleep, cannot adjust backlight, and vt-x not enabled. The only two that might have any relation are toshiba_acpi not loading and adjusting the backlight, although the backlight should still be able to be adjusted over acpi, so it sounds like there's a separate bug there. toshiba_acpi not working with newer Toshiba models is a known problem. I've been working on it as time permits. That work is currently on pause, but I hope to get back to it soon. I'll assign this bug to myself and post an update it once I've been able to get back to working on it, hopefully in the next couple of weeks. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => In Progress ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Seth Forshee (sforshee) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/827558 Title: toshiba_acpi unable to load on TOSHIBA SATELLITE C670-10V To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/827558/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
