Kernel panic on resume from sleep

[Peter-jezdec]

Often manisfests as a lockup. This time showed a stack trace on the monitor. Seems to be related to usb device.

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v3.8 kernel[0] (Not a kernel in the daily directory) and install both the linux-image and linux-image-extra .deb packages.

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'.
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed".

Thanks in advance.

I installed v3.8-rc7-raring; however, I am not able to reliably reproduce this bug. I haven't seen it with this kernel, but It only happened occasionally before. I think the best I can do is to wait a week to see if it happens again.

Here is some furthur information:

I am now using ubuntu 12.10, which is a fresh installation. Before that, I was using 11.10 which was upgraded from 11.4 which was upgraded from 10.10. I never had this problem with any of the previous installations.

The stack trace I saw from the kernel panic included references to USB. This makes me suspect it is related to a Kingston micro sd to sd memory card adapter that I usually leave plugged in without a micro sd card in it. I've never seen the problem when the adapter isn't plugged in; however, I haven't used the system for any significant amount of time without it. To make my system as similar as possible to when I saw the bug, I'll leave the adapter plugging in for now.

[Peter-jezdec (peter-jezdec)]

I've been testing the upstream kernel fairly intensly without a panic, so I don't think the bug will manifest itself. I'll keep on testing it and comment here if this changes.

My wifi doesn't work with the upstream kernel; however, I don't know if that's to be expected.

[Peter-jezdec (peter-jezdec)]

Oops, actually the wifi does work. Never mind that part of my comment.

[Peter-jezdec (peter-jezdec)]

Ok, one more try. With the upstream kernel, the wifi works after boot until the system goes to sleep, after resume, the wifi doesn't work. However, there are no kernel panics.
