| |
Hi,
After upgrading to 3.1.5, and still in 3.1.6, I found myself unable to resume from suspend. I did a bisect and identified the following change as the cause:
commit aeed6baa702a285cf03b7dc4182ffc1a7f4e4ed6 Author: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Date: Fri Dec 2 16:02:45 2011 +0100
clockevents: Set noop handler in clockevents_exchange_device()
commit de28f25e8244c7353abed8de0c7792f5f883588c upstream.
If a device is shutdown, then there might be a pending interrupt, which will be processed after we reenable interrupts, which causes the original handler to be run. If the old handler is the (broadcast) periodic handler the shutdown state might hang the kernel completely.

This was also reported upstream at fedora but was not fully diagnosed:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=767248
I wouldn't be surprised if it's related to the nvidia binary drivers in some way (I use them and so does the fedora bug reporter), but it's not practical to avoid them.
