Summary: Freeze during docking
Product: ACPI
Version: 2.5
KernelVersion: 2.6.25-rc8
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Tree: Mainline
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P1
Component: Config-Hotplug
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Latest working kernel version: 2.6.21
Earliest failing kernel version: 2.6.22
Distribution: Ubuntu
Hardware Environment: Dell Latitude D600, D/Dock docking station
Software Environment: Ubuntu 7.10
Problem Description:
The laptop freezes shortly after docking. This started as an Ubuntu bug which I
have now reproduced using a mainline kernel:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/41091
My initial testing suggests that the problem occurs when CONFIG_SLUB is
defined, but does not occur with CONFIG_SLAB. I have tested this using the
Ubuntu 2.6.22 and 2.6.24 kernels, and the mainline 2.6.25-rc8.
Steps to reproduce:
Build a kernel with the ACPI dock module, and with CONFIG_SLUB.
Boot the laptop docked.
Undock - no problem.
Dock - the laptop freezes, though sysrq still works.
Forcibly undock - the laptop returns to life, sufficient to extract dmesg logs
and cleanly shutdown.
I have some extra debugging information. Adding trace printk statements to
dock.c reveals that shortly after I insert the laptop into the dock, the kernel
calls dock_notify(). dock_notify() uses dock_present() to test for the docking
station. dock_present() returns 0, which causes dock_notify() to return. The
kernel then calls dock_notify() again, and the process repeats.
I have also captured a sysrq-t during a freeze, and the acpi tasks are below:
