After looking at the patch, a long recompile (and nice coffee), and testing
thrice, I can confirm that this patch does the job perfectly. Thanks Lan
Tianyu!!!!!
One small thing: maybe it'd be reasonable to include one small comment on the
source, so that it doesn't get deleted in the future by someone not
understanding the issue, such as:
--
/* This loop consumes events accumulated during sleep by the EC. Some EC's
stop reporting GPE events until they are polled, if too many accumulated.
(samsung series 5 and 9). Fixes LID close / AC status ignored problem. */
--
(and a 'thank you' note in the patch would not be unwelcome; uncovering this
bug took me quite some nights ;-) )
My laptop is the Samsung Series 5 NP530U3C-A01, I'm on Kubuntu 13.10, Here is
exactly what I did:
1) Disabled my workaround first.
2) I applied the patch it to the source of ubuntu's linux kernel
3.11.0-14-generic_3.11.0-14.21, which is what I used in my previous tests.
Recompiled and installed. Reboot into new kernel.
3) Started 'sudo acpi_listen' in a console and kept running.
4) Suspended the laptop. Unplug/plug/unplug... (more than 8 times).
5) Resumed. Observed events in acpi_listen, everything normal, all good.
Tried unplugging, it was recognized. Run my little program to see if any event
was left, printing each output. None really left ('status' didn't have 0x20
bit).
6) Tried again, but without running my program afterwards to see if any
left. All good.
7) Restarted, tried again (plugging/unplugging like crazy). All good.
This is what I did to test potential solutions before comming up with the
workaround. Nothing resisted the tests. This patch did, and it works like a
charm.
