Another week, another -rc.suspend to ram regression is annoying (still visible on rc9; https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/9/24/76) but unfortunately maintainers are silent.I tried -rc9 on my Lenovo W500 with that same TPM. I cannot reproduce the 'scheduling while atomic' problem you had reported earlier. I also could suspend / resume fine as long as I did the following: - suspended with the tpm_tis driver as module in the kernel - once a suspend was done without the tpm_tis driver the subsequent suspends were all done without the tpm_tis driver Once I had done a suspend/resume with the tpm_tis driver *not* in the kernel and then again a suspend with the tpm_tis driver in the kernel, it did not resume anymore. I believe previously (previous version of kernel and/or Fedora) it refused to even suspend. The reason why this doesn't work properly is that the driver has to send a command to the TPM upon suspend and the BIOS then sends the corresponding wakeup command. Did you maybe previously suspend/resume without a tpm_tis driver and then try to suspend with it ? Also, my Lenovo W500 shows particularly odd behavior when I switch from Windows to Linux. The first suspend with a Linux booted after Windows (with or without tpm_tis driver) does *not* resume (reboot required). A subsequently rebooted Linux makes the suspend/resume work fine. StefanArkadiusz, Do you still see the issue with this patch [1][2] applied?The issue doesn't happen with this patch but error condition with "Could not read PCR 0. TPM is not working correctly." is triggered immediately at boot, even before suspend is used. $ dmesg|grep -iE "(tpm|suspend)" [ 12.640039] tpm_tis 00:0a: 1.2 TPM (device-id 0x1020, rev-id 6) [ 12.640048] tpm_tis 00:0a: Intel iTPM workaround enabled [ 12.768057] tpm_tis 00:0a: Could not read PCR 0. TPM is not working correctly. [ 12.768066] tpm_tis 00:0a: Was machine previously suspended without TPM driver present? [ 88.512117] Suspending console(s) (use no_console_suspend to debug)
Though I suppose that now your suspend/resume cycles always work?
I guess the BIOS seems not to be initializing the TPM correctly. Any
chance you can get a hold of a BIOS update for your machine?
