I really don't understand what's going on here and what I'm expected to do.
After enabling -proposed, my system boots with kernel 4.12.0-041200rc5-generic and APST is enabled again (and my system crashed after about 10 Minutes with exactly the same behaviour as before). Should that kernel contain the fix? If it does then it's not working. If it does not, then I'm not sure which kernel I'm supposed to test. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1699004 Title: APST gets enabled against explicit kernel option Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Status in linux source package in Yakkety: Won't Fix Status in linux source package in Zesty: Fix Committed Bug description: [Impact] The NVMe driver doesn't set APSTE on APST quirked devices at initialization. If the BIOS or NVMe enables APST before driver loading, APST will never be disabled, it also ignores explicit kernel option as result. So the faulty NVMe may not work as intended. [Test Case] $ sudo nvme get-feature -f 0x0c -H /dev/nvme0 ...will show APST is "Disabled" instead of "Enabled" [Regression Potential] Very low. This SRU didn't change anything really - it just explicitly set APSTE at initialization. --- I have a Lenovo ThinkPad X270 with a Toshiba nvme SSD $ sudo nvme list Node SN Model Namespace Usage Format FW Rev ---------------- -------------------- ---------------------------------------- --------- -------------------------- ---------------- -------- /dev/nvme0n1 177S10WYTAMT THNSF5256GPUK TOSHIBA 1 256.06 GB / 256.06 GB 512 B + 0 B 51025KLA I was affected by this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1678184?comments=all before. After disabling APST by adding "nvme_core.default_ps_max_latency_us=0" in /etc/default/grub, the bug went away. Since yesterday, however the bug has returned, with the system dying with I/O errors after an hour or so. I verified, that the kernel option is still being set $ cat /proc/cmdline BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.10.0-22-generic.efi.signed root=UUID=365f1a9c-9598-4ad5-a387-d02f771767a1 ro quiet splash nvme_core.default_ps_max_latency_us=0 vt.handoff=7 however it turns out that it is being ignored for some reason, and running $ sudo nvme get-feature -f 0x0c -H /dev/nvme0 reports that APST is enabled. I can successfully disable it manually using $ sudo nvme set-feature -f 0x0c -v=0 /dev/nvme0 and the problem goes away. However, after any reboot and even after waking the system from suspend, it is reenabled, causing the system to crash after a short while.
