Strange. No idea if there were bugs in Mozilla Thunderbird 91.2.0, released over half year ago. The current version is 91.8.1. [1]

I am still not clear, what “hang during suspend/resume” means. I guess
suspending works fine? During resume (S3 or S0ix?), where does it hang?
The system is functional, but there are only display problems?
System freeze after suspend/resume.

But you see certain messages still? At what point does it freeze exactly? In the bug report you posted Linux messages.

No, the system freeze then users have to recycle power to recover.

Then I misread the issue? Did you capture the messages over serial log then?

I think so. We captured dmesg log.

As mentioned early we need support from Intel on how to get ASPM working for VI generation on Intel Alder Lake, but we don't know where things currently stand.


The issue was initially reported on one system (Dell Precision 3660 with
BIOS version 0.14.81), but was later confirmed to affect at least 4 Alder
Lake based systems.

Add extra check to disable ASPM on Intel Alder Lake based systems.

Thank you Microsoft Outlook for keeping us safe. :(
I am not using MS Outlook for the email exchanges.

I guess, it’s not the client but the Microsoft email service (Exchange?) no idea adding these protection links. (Making it even harder for users to actually verify domain. No idea who comes up with these ideas, and customers actually accepting those.)


Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@xxxxxxxxx>

This tag is a little confusing. Maybe clarify that it was for an issue
in a previous patch iteration?

I did describe in change-list version 3 below, which corrected the build error with W=1 option.

It is not good idea to add the description for that to the commit message, this is why I add descriptions on change-list version 3.

Do as you wish, but the current style is confusing, and readers of the commit are going to think, the kernel test robot reported the problem with AMD VI ASICs and Intel Alder Lake systems.

Can users still forcefully enable ASPM with the parameter `amdgpu.aspm`?

As Mario mentioned in a separate reply, we can't forcefully enable ASPM with the parameter 'amdgpu.aspm'.

That would be a regression on systems where ASPM used to work. Hmm. I guess, you could say, there are no such systems.

If I remember correctly, there were also newer cards, where ASPM worked
with Intel Alder Lake, right? Can only the problematic generations for
WX3200 and RX640 be excluded from ASPM?

This patch only disables it for the generatioaon that was problematic.

Could that please be made clear in the commit message summary, and message?

Are you ok with the commit messages below?

Please change the commit message summary. Maybe:

drm/amdgpu: VI: Disable ASPM on Intel Alder Lake based systems

Active State Power Management (ASPM) feature is enabled since kernel 5.14.

There are some AMD GFX cards (such as WX3200 and RX640) that won't work
with ASPM-enabled Intel Alder Lake based systems. Using these GFX cards as
video/display output, Intel Alder Lake based systems will freeze after
suspend/resume.

Something like:

On Intel Alder Lake based systems using ASPM with AMD GFX Volcanic Islands (VI) cards, like WX3200 and RX640, graphics don’t initialize when resuming from S0ix(?).


The issue was initially reported on one system (Dell Precision 3660 with
BIOS version 0.14.81), but was later confirmed to affect at least 4 Alder
Lake based systems.

Which ones?
those are pre-production Alder Lake based OEM systems

Just write that then: at least four pre-production Alder Lake based systems.

Add extra check to disable ASPM on Intel Alder Lake based systems with
problematic generation GFX cards.

… with the problematic Volcanic Islands GFX cards.


Loosely related, is there a public (or internal issue) to analyze how to get ASPM working for VI generation devices with Intel Alder Lake?

As Alex mentioned, we need support from Intel. We don't have any update on that.

It’d be great to get that fixed properly.

Last thing, please don’t hate me, does Linux log, that ASPM is disabled?


Kind regards,

Paul
