Control: retitle -1 Cherry pick and backport patches for rtc-s35390a to Jessie
Control: found -1 3.16.39-1+deb8u2
Control: fixed -1 4.6.4-1
stable@ please see the list of requested backports at the end.
debian-*: I tried (and succeeded!) to reassign to src:linux and tried
(and failed!) to merge with 794266, actually that failure was probably
for the best. I've tried to reflect the fact that 794266 was fixed in
4.6.4-1 but that the issue is still found in Jessie and the stable
3.16.y tree (since I don't see the fix in the changelog of either) with
the above runes.
(the original bug report was all in the $subject, so reproducing here
since the retitle should overwrite it:
After new installation of Debian the system is properly powering
down either shutdownor by power button. Also the restart is working
by power button. But after some days running the system the machine
is not powering down completely anymore. The status-LED is blinking
red/green, power LED is blue. The system can only be restarted by
disconnecting from power. The power button is not working in this
moment. This effect happens if I stop by shutdown command as well as
by power button. nowby

According to
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/kernel/linux.git/commit/?id=1d69dac66c315a290fb61c5f400e056e8d01fe50
linked from
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=854854#15
The set of requested backports is:
f87e904ddd8f rtc: s35390a: fix reading out alarm
8e6583f1b5d1 rtc: s35390a: implement reset routine as suggested by the reference
3bd32722c827 rtc: s35390a: improve irq handling
all of which are in mainline already. They should/could be backported
to the active LTS branches between v3.7..v4.5 AFAICT.
Uwe, can you confirm for stable@ that these are the patches and
releases where these are needed?
I also see
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/kernel/linux.git/tree/debian/patches/bugfix/all/rtc-s35390a-initialize-all-fields.patch?id=1d69dac66c315a290fb61c5f400e056e8d01fe50
in your branch but not sure if that is needed upstream or if it was
intended only for the distro packages
Uwe, Maybe you should merge your Debian kernel package branch in the
meantime and we can drop the patches when they hit stable?
Ian.
