Corrected version. It turns out that the wakeup alarm has to be reset
before setting:
set_wakeup() { # See
https://www.linux.com/training-tutorials/wake-linux-rtc-alarm-clock/
if [[ $(date +"%H") -lt 8 ]]; then
datestring=$(date '+%s' -d '08:00 today')
else
datestring=$(date '+%s' -d '08:00 tomorrow')
fi
echo 0 > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm
echo "$datestring" > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm
}

Just to close this off:
- The problem was being caused by a flaky smart plug
- Restoring factory settings to the plug fixed it
- I decided to follow some recommendations in the thread and use the
built-in motherboard RTC instead of the smart plug as a way to re-
activate the system at a set time. This is now working (touch wood).
My hibernation script now includes this snippet, if anyone's
interested:
set_wakeup() { # See
https://www.linux.com/training-tutorials/wake-linux-rtc-alarm-clock/
if [[ $(date +"%H") -lt 8 ]]; then
datestring=$(date '+%s' -d '08:00 today')
else
datestring=$(date '+%s' -d '08:00 tomorrow')

echo "$datestring" > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm
}
Thanks again to all who chipped in.

I may play with it, however the factory reset on the plug seems to have worked. 8am came and went without incident, so it looks like I can use the plug as intended.

I checked a mb bios from 10 years ago and it is in it. And I checked a 2 year old one and both have it. RTC Alarm Power On Allow the system to be waked up by the real time clock alarm.

I have TP-Link KASA EP10 smart plugs and I don't see this behavior, and at least one plug controls a device that would definitely be impacted by such a power cycle. For the sake of completeness you might double/triple/quadruple check that the plug doesn't have a schedule programmed.

Re: Strange daily reboot - SOLVED
Given it is the same time each day, I am guessing "feature" rather than bug. It may also be that the power plug resets/reboots itself once a day and that the reboot does a quick power blip that is quick enough to not matter for non-computer devices. Device makers love to find and implement half-assed "solutions" to problems. I would guess they had some sort of memory leak (most software does) and will stop working after a week or 2, and instead of finding and fixing the leak chose to reboot it daily so that the leak is not an issue. And on a reboot they don't have a way to maintain power during the reboot and decide a quick blip is ok.

I had installed this thing as a simple solution to waking up the hibernating machine without having to futz around with Wake On Lan, which I have no experience with and which apparently can be flaky depending on what the BIOS supports.

I have a few of those things, thankfully none of mine have done that (using a widespread Tuya chipset). I won't use them for anything critical, or risky. Just a few light bulbs and a pedestal fan. I'd never trust them on something that might be a fire risk (heaters), or requires stability (computing equipment).

Seriously though, in the end I did watch it with hibernation disabled, and sure enough the "smart" power plug turned itself off and on again at 08:00. I've checked and rechecked the settings on the thing, and it positively, definitely, absolutely does *not* have a scheduled power cycle at that time. In fact I'd completely disabled it during the experiment (but of course left it connected), yet it still decided to do this entirely of its own volition. In other words, it's a bug in the plug. Given that I actually do want to reboot (i.e. resume) at 08:00, I could just hibernate as normal and let it do its thing, but I don't like magic solutions. I may decide to replace it if I can get a refund (or even if not - it was cheap). I appreciate everyone's efforts to help with this, even if in the end it had nothing to do with Fedora, or hibernation, or my computer.

Re: Strange daily reboot
You might try not doing a hibernate and see if it still goes at 8am. That way you at least know it is not related to hibernate. Cron, or something in the bios. I would have thought that if you had the bios set to power up the node at time X then it would be smart enough not to reboot/recycle the node if it was already up. But bioses are often badly written and/or tested and or badly deisgned and do less than ideal things. And you checked all cron's? crontab -l and all /etc/cron.*/* files?

Good idea. I'll try that and see what happens. poc ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
Re: Strange daily reboot
That is not a reboot. That is a crash/power off or something else. You might move your wake up the machine to say 7:40 and see if the machine still does it at 8am or then does it at 7:50 (10 min after reboot). If it does it 10 minutes after reboot that is often the default for the watchdog reset timer that will force power the machine (in bios) if the OS does not touch the watchdog every so often. If the machine has the watchdog enabled, there is a decent chance it is not getting correctly restarted after hibernation.

Strange daily reboot
My system (both F38 and now F39) reboots itself every morning at 8am, yet nothing in the cron configuration is telling it to do that and I don't see anything obvious in the journal to cause it. How can I figure out what is triggering this? I know the description is vague, but there it is. poc ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
