Bug Description
Hello there!
I have an HP 840 G5, with an external docking station (HP USB-C Dock G4). All the input and output devices are connected to this docking station"
- display on Displayport (x2)
- ethernet
- keyboard
- mouse
After I turn on the machine in the morning (probably from S3 sleep), it just blinks the displays for a few moments, than it turns to black for seconds and this is an endless loop. If I reconnect the docking station I can get back one of the displays to life, but the other one remain in sleep state.
In the meanwhile after each of these problems, the intel_pstate driver seems to fail, all the processors cores are clocked to 3.6GHz.
If I reboot the machine, both the screens are usable again and the intel_pstate driver is able to change the freqency.
Kernel version 5.0.0-23 was not able to lower the frequency at all, I had to use the ondemand scheduler.
I found these lines for about 5 days in a previous dmesg log.
[10443.450243] [drm:intel_
[10443.703810] [drm:intel_
[10444.257321] [drm:intel_
If I can help in any other way, please let me know!
Regards

It appears a number of people are reporting the same kernel error or similar with docks in bug 1550779. And one other user also mentions "HP 840" but an older model.
The problems are close enough that I think the best next step is to treat this as a duplicate of bug 1550779 until further progress is made there in teasing out multiple issues as appropriate.
