When a user is using the intel_pstate driver in performance mode, then yes, prior to Kernel 4.2RC1 the CPU frequency will be typically be stuck after resume from suspend.
This is not a pm-ultils issue (which is how I stumbled across this bug report). To test that the issue is fixed on kernel 4.2, just use primitive commands and not these higher level utilities (that I neither use or know anything about). For example use: grep MHz /proc/cpuinfo to observe CPU frequencies. The commit that, I think, fixes this issue is: commit 6c1e45917dec5e7c99ba8125fd8cc50f6e482a21 Author: Doug Smythies <doug.smyth...@gmail.com> Date: Mon Jun 1 21:12:34 2015 -0700 intel_pstate: Force setting target pstate when required -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to pm-utils in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1484587 Title: CPU frequency management fails to re-engage on resume from suspend To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1484587/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
