Well, it seems that there is some communication problem between me and you
kernel developers. Sorry about that but I'm not an English native speaker and
probably I didn't make myself clear enough. Let's try to summarize.

The system _never_ had problems during resume. It always resumed correctly.

The main problem is that after a successful resume from disk, when userspace
has already been up and running (i.e. I am usually able to unlock my gnome
session), sometimes the system freezes for about 4-5 minutes.

After that the laptop usually "revives" (I don't known how to explain
differently, sorry). It usually does it without printing anything in the logs
(post #16 is an example of that). Tejun, the delay before the HPET line is
present in every hibernate/resume cycle, good or bad.

Only two times there were some lines in the logs that pointed to ATA, as in
post #10 quoted by Zhang Rui. In this post you can see that ATA froze _after_
userspace was done, i.e. after the line "Restarting tasks: done".

Only once  ATA did not come back and the disk was gone. My rootfs journal
aborted and my laptop was totally unusable. I had to powercycle it and go
through a full fsck. Of course, I don't have logs for this, I just read those
information from a dmesg command output.

Let's try to summarize the facts so far:

* the latency problem after resume (after, not during) is present with every
stable release between 2.6.27.5 and 2.6.27.8 included. It never happened with
.4;
* it's present in every 2.6.28-rc I tried and it's also present in current
mainline;
* it's also present if I use Tuxonice instead of in-kernel hibernation;
* it can be reproduced with and without fglrx / cisco_ipsec binary only modules
(without fglrx the kernel was compiled to support my radeon card and the
xorg.conf file has been modified accordingly);
* my hard disk survived a smartctl -t long test without problems;
* windows on the same laptop (dual boot) does not show the problem and a full
hd test that I ran on Windows completed succesfullly.

The log in post #14 is in my opinion a separate issue as the system refused to
suspend; this happened only once and I did not want to lose those information.

If something is not clear enough, please ask.

Thanks to all of you for your time,
Fabio
