Hello Uwe,

Thank you for the reply.

First, to clear up the sender confusion: Nana K Gyasi and Bernie Osei in this bug log are one and the same person — me. I used two different mail identities when sending the original report and the follow-up. I apologise for the confusion this caused.

I have now completed the requested retest with the current Debian stable 6.12 kernel that was available to this machine when I began the test:

    6.12.107+deb13-amd64
    Debian 6.12.107-1

The hardware and relevant configuration are unchanged:

    AMD A8-6410 Mullins Radeon R4/R5
    PCI ID 1002:9851, subsystem 103c:2268

    radeon.cik_support=0
    amdgpu.cik_support=1
    amdgpu.dpm=1

    resume=/dev/mapper/sda8_crypt
    resume_offset=8278889

The hibernation image remains on the 16 GiB Btrfs swapfile inside the encrypted filesystem.

The result is that the problem is still reproducible on 6.12.107.

I first tested an ordinary suspend/resume. The machine remained usable, but the kernel again logged the underlying AMDGPU recovery problem, including:

    WARNING at amdgpu_irq_put
    amdgpu: SRBM_SOFT_RESET=0x00100040

I then performed a short hibernation/resume cycle. The hibernated session restored successfully and remained usable, but the kernel again logged compute-ring failures with -110, the soft reset, and repeated:

    [drm] scheduler comp_1.0.x is not ready, skipping

This was consistent with my earlier observation that short hibernations can appear to work despite the AMDGPU recovery errors.

I therefore repeated the test with an extended hibernation, since historically that is when the serious failure has been most reproducible.

On the extended resume, the failure occurred again.

After the normal boot/initramfs path and LUKS unlock, the physical display showed the previous desktop contents, including work which had been left visible before hibernation. The graphical session was otherwise unusable. I could not recover local control or switch to a text VT with the function keys.

SSH was still working, so I was able to capture the system state before rebooting.

The kernel journal from that failed resume contained:

    amdgpu_irq_put                         6 occurrences
    SRBM_SOFT_RESET                       3 occurrences
    ring comp                            13 occurrences
    scheduler comp                      668 occurrences
    drm_sched_job_arm                     2 matches
    Oops:                                 1 occurrence

The significant failure is:

    Oops: Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP NOPTI
    RIP: 0010:drm_sched_job_arm+0x23/0x60 [gpu_sched]

Immediately before this, the compute rings had failed again, including:

    amdgpu_ring_test_helper:
    ring comp_1.0.0 test failed (-110)
    ...
    ring comp_1.0.7 test failed (-110)

followed by repeated scheduler-not-ready messages.

So the same fatal drm_sched_job_arm scheduler failure which I previously reproduced on 6.12.95 is also reproducible on 6.12.107.

This changes my earlier interpretation of the 6.12.94/6.12.95 comparison. I no longer think the available evidence supports treating 6.12.95 as a likely regression boundary. The underlying fault was already present on 6.12.94, and 6.12.107 can also progress into the fatal scheduler Oops. Short successful hibernation cycles appear not to be sufficient to show that the problem is absent.

There is also a display/locking symptom which may be worth recording separately.

Immediately before the extended hibernation I observed the display blank, then show the desktop again just before the machine actually powered down.

After the failed resume, the old desktop contents remained visibly displayed on the physical panel. However, from SSH:

    loginctl show-session 3

reported:

    Type=wayland
    Active=yes
    State=active
    LockedHint=yes

Running:

    loginctl lock-sessions

made no visible difference to the physical display.

I therefore had a state in which the session was reported as logically locked, but stale pre-hibernation desktop contents — including potentially private work — remained visible on the screen. I do not know whether this has the same root cause as the AMDGPU scheduler failure, so I am reporting it as an observed symptom rather than drawing that conclusion.

I preserved the full kernel journal and additional failed-state diagnostics before rebooting.

After reboot, the machine returned to normal operation on 6.12.107. The encrypted root filesystem and Btrfs filesystem are healthy and there are no failed systemd units.

I have not yet completed the requested test with the latest kernel from Debian testing/unstable. I intend to do that next using an isolated/reversible kernel installation while keeping the stable kernel available for fallback.

If useful, I can attach the complete kernel journal from the failed 6.12.107 extended resume, along with the focused failure extract and session-lock-state capture.

Please let me know if there is any additional tracing or diagnostic information which would be particularly useful for the testing/unstable run, or whether you would prefer that I open the upstream report now based on this 6.12.107 reproduction.

Regards,

Bernie Osei
