System not resuming from sleep

Floor&magnetpc · 2024-01-22 03:21:47

Hello forum, fellow newbie here. I was making this post to get some help with my computer not waking up from sleep. When I first installed this system through arch-install, the suspend function worked completely well.
Arch installation pastebin

Since atleast 6.6.5 (I honestly don't remember), the suspend function was becoming more and more unreliable until it did not work at all. I also added around that time wd791x firmware (Western Digital SSD) and a few other firmware packages to fix an unrelated problem of not booting normally but that was when suspend was not working all together. The process before suspending works fine, but when I try to resume from suspension I get no signal to my monitors and my motherboard has the CPU and DRAM lights on. The only way out is if I push the reset switch on the top of the case. Here are the rest of the specifications.

------------- 
OS: Arch Linux x86_64 
Host: MS-7D67 1.0 
Kernel: 6.7.0-arch3-1 
Uptime: 42 mins 
Packages: 912 (pacman) 
Shell: bash 5.2.21 
Resolution: 3840x2160 
DE: Plasma 5.27.10 
WM: kwin 
Theme: [Plasma], Breeze [GTK2/3] 
Icons: [Plasma], breeze-dark [GTK2/3] 
Terminal: konsole 
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D (16) @ 5.050GHz 
GPU: AMD ATI 18:00.0 Raphael 
GPU: AMD ATI Radeon RX 7900 XT/7900 XTX 
Memory: 5977MiB / 63448MiB

I thought it was the lack of swap space on setup versus the amount of system ram since I have been reading the issue of hibernate on the Arch Wiki, so I tried to use the systemd configuration in /etc/systemd/sleep.conf.d/ as

[Sleep]
AllowSuspend=yes
AllowHibernation=no
AllowSuspendThenHibernate=no
AllowHybridSleep=no

When running systemctl suspend I get the same issue. Using journalctl -b -1 with no_console_suspend=1 in the boot parameters gives me this,

Journalctl -b -1 with no_console_suspend=1

Past when it suspends there are no messages left. I have not tried other operating systems to see if it is an issue with just arch linux in general (I mean if it used to work hardware can be safely eliminated as a variable). There are new bios versions for my motherboard but it only shows that it added compatibility with the ryzen 8000g cpus. I also tried to switch suspend from deep to s2idle and it made the monitors turn off but the system was running at full power and unresponsive, I had to use the reset switch again.

Here is the output of cat /sys/power/state & cat /sys/power/mem_sleep

freeze mem disk
 s2idle [deep]

I hope I provided enough information to get a lead on fixing this issue. In the meantime, I've just been cold booting which is annoying due to the long post times caused by the RAM training and leaving the system idling is also not ideal for me as this computer is somewhat of a powerhog (100w idle according to my ups). Thank you and have a good week.

That's the raphael chip (APU) - does it work if you're no using the RX 7900?

Does it work if you suspend from the multi-user.target (no GUI, notably not KDE/wayland), 2nd link below?

Thanks for the reply.
I tried to suspend and resume from the multi user target and it gave me the same issues (no signal, keyboard not on, motherboard cpu + dram lights on). I also tried to suspend and resume from ArchIso from a usb and it also gave me the same problem. I have not tested REISUB using sysrq. Should I use REISUB before suspending? When resuming nothing loads, not even the keyboard and my motherboard does not have PS/2 ports sadly. I am more inclined to think this is becoming more of a hardware issue than an issue with the kernel. I have also not tried to use the igpu yet either. I also disabled AMD expo to see if that is the issue and it still gives me the same issue. Next I'll try to use the igpu and other distro's live usb to see if the problem persists there. I'm also looking at hardware related issues to see if there is a fix in the BIOS settings.

You can test the principal functio if you want, yes.

You could try an older software stack, eg. https://grml.org/

Any luck here? I have the same problem.
