[HP Compaq 6530b Notebook PC] Unable to hibernate with Ubuntu 14.04

[Kunjesh Kaushik]

I am unable to hibernation mode. I have already allocated enough of swap space on a separate disk partition.

I was testing hibernation support as suggested at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelHibernate and https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/power/basic-pm-debugging.txt. Specifically, I was testing using commands like the following:
cd /sys/power
echo shutdown > disk
echo platform > pm_test
echo disk > state

WORKAROUND: adding the "resume=" command line parameter with the specific path to the swap space of the separate disk partition.

Kunjesh Kaushik, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-3.15-rc2

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding.

Tested with 3.15.0-031500rc2-generic. Details available in below. Bottomline --- bug still exists; I am unable to hibernate the device, although suspend still works well.

# booted with no_console_suspend, switched to VT-1

sudo su
cd /sys/power
cat disk pm_test state

lsmod > lsmod.output.txt
dmesg > dmesg-output.txt

echo devices > pm_test
echo platform > disk
echo disk > state
dmesg > dmesg-devices-platform.txt

echo core > pm_test
echo platform > disk
echo disk > state
dmesg > dmesg-core-platform.txt

# ^^ the only messages were from pciehp not able to hot-add existing devices

echo core > pm_test
echo reboot > disk
echo disk > state
dmesg > dmesg-core-reboot.txt

# ^^ pciehp still complained; no (machine) reboot happened
# just that the machine took a quick nap and woke up again
# but I guess, that is how the pm_test functionality works

echo none > pm_test
echo shutdown > disk
echo disk > state

# ^^ machine powered down and did not come up after reboot

# logged into desktop after booting up

dmesg > dmesg-after-reboot.txt
sudo pm-hibernate

# ^^ failed to resume after reboot yet again

dmesg > dmesg-after-pm-hibernate.txt

only incremental message after 01-dmesg-devices-platform.txt (the last attachment) have been retained

[Kunjesh Kaushik (kunjesh)]

only incremental message after 02-dmesg-core-platform.txt have been retained

[Kunjesh Kaushik (kunjesh)]

dmesg after reboot and before pm-hibernate

[Kunjesh Kaushik (kunjesh)]

pm-suspend log recovered after rebooting

Kunjesh Kaushik, did this problem not occur in a release prior to Trusty?

[Kunjesh Kaushik (kunjesh)]

Hi Christopher,

Thanks a lot for help and support.

As it turns out, I have found the crux of the problem now and also worked around it. As I reviewed the dmesg output from my previous posts, I realized that hibernation image creation was working fine, as was restoring it when the kernel knew where to look.

To cut a long story short, when I helped the kernel find the hibernation image by adding the "resume=" command line parameter, it worked like a charm. I successfully did "sudo pm-hibernate" with both kernel versions 3.13.0-24-generic and 3.15.0-031500rc2-generic.

I am attaching the dmesg output for 3.13.0-24-generic. Please let me know how to proceed with this bug report.

Thanks,
Kunjesh.

To answer your question about previous releases, I couldn't say as this is for the first installation of ubuntu on this machine.

PS: Although "sudo pm-hibernate" was working flawlessly, enountered bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd-shim/+bug/1184262 while using the system menu. Successfully applied the workaround mentioned therein: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd-shim/+bug/1184262/+attachment/3868749/+files/network-manager :-)
