Linux 3.11 - (Intel) bluetooth broken after resuming from suspend

Hi all,

I upgraded the kernel from 3.10 to 3.11 and noticed that after resuming from standby my buetooth mouse won't reconnect no matter what.
(I tried both 3.11 minor revisions that went stable since the latest stable 3.10 but to no avail; I do not use anything from the testing repo or any custom core packages)
In gnome bluetooth settings the mouse still shows connected after resume but it won't work no more, not even after restarting the bluetooth service.
I also tried powering the mouse off and back on but it won't help either, only a full system restart would.

My system is a Dell Inspiron 5323 and its integrated (Intel) bluetooth used to work properly before the kernel upgrade.

Downgrading linux back to 3.10 solves the issue.

I'm kinda lost.
Anyone else seen this problem?


Edit: please see the hardware info in my post below

Re: Linux 3.11 - (Intel) bluetooth broken after resuming from suspend

Hello again,

I'm back with more info. I unpinned the kernel (unblocked the upgrade in /etc/pacman.conf) and upgraded again to 3.11:

[aky@3axis ~]$ uname -a
Linux 3axis 3.11.4-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat Oct 5 21:22:51 CEST 2013 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[aky@3axis ~]$

[edit]
This is everything bluetooth related that I have installed:

[root@3axis ~]# pacman -Qs bluetooth
local/bluez 5.9-1
    Daemons for the bluetooth protocol stack
local/bluez-libs 5.9-1
    Deprecated libraries for the bluetooth protocol stack

I followed these steps as described in another bluetooth thread and it's only the final step - "connect 00:XX:XX:XX:XX:05" - when I get the mouse back working.

This doesn't happen if I downgrade the kernel to linux-3.10.10-1-x86_64 and it did not happen with any kernel version before.
My Logitech mouse used to work right after opening the laptop lid with no intervention.
Even stranger, I can see that it's reported as "Paired: no", which is not true.

Any ideea what the problem could be / how can this be fixed?

Re: Linux 3.11 - (Intel) bluetooth broken after resuming from suspend

Hello,

I have the exact same problem and I'm very bored ! I have a Dell Inspiron 1545 and a Dell BT Travel Mouse. After some research, I've found some topics speaking that Broadcom cards could be in conflict. Personally, rfkill list and hciconfig doesn't find my hci0 when using bluez 5.9 but it does when using bluez 5.7. Anyone to help us please ? :-)

Thanks, have a nice day !

Re: Linux 3.11 - (Intel) bluetooth broken after resuming from suspend

Hello robin850,


And welcome on arch forums! (I see this is your first post here)

I'm not sure that you have the same problem.
It could be, tho.. there's no Broadcom in my system. I know how funny it sounds but it's also true:

[root@3axis ~]# lsusb -v|grep -i road
[root@3axis ~]# lspci -v|grep -i road
[root@3axis ~]#

So either is something related to bluetooth in general in the latest kernels (3.11) or maybe your problem has a different cause.

Re: Linux 3.11 - (Intel) bluetooth broken after resuming from suspend

I don't know if this is relevant to you or not but there have been developments to the bluez package (which is bluez 5) - I know that most people have been using bluez4 until now.  I use KDE not Gnome, but I now use bluez instead of bluez4 since the latter is I believe no longer maintained.  If you are still using bluez4 is it possible for you to move to bluez (i.e. bluez5) instead?

Re: Linux 3.11 - (Intel) bluetooth broken after resuming from suspend

@aky : Ugh, thanks for the link though!

@mcloaker : I'm still on Bluez 5, I'm just locked to the 5.7-1 version since with 5.9-1, rfkill list or hciconfig don't detect hci0 :-(

Thanks for your kindness guys!

So you mentioned Broadcom + bluetooth doesn't show up in rfkill list for you..
My bluetooth adapter is Intel + bluetooth shows up in rfkill list even after opening the laptop lid for me.. and that with Bluez 5.9-1

Like I said, probably you have a different bluetooth issue.


I don't know, maybe I should open a bug report for this and link it to the bug on Fedora bug tracker.
The issue reported on Fedora seems the closest to mine.

Re: Linux 3.11 - (Intel) bluetooth broken after resuming from suspend

OK - I don't know what technique you used to get your BT mouse going but here are my notes in case they might help -

Bluetooth related packages installed are:

sudo pacman -Qs blue
local/bluez 5.7-1
    Daemons for the bluetooth protocol stack
local/bluez-libs 5.7-1
    Deprecated libraries for the bluetooth protocol stack
local/bluez-utils 5.7-1
    Development and debugging utilities for the bluetooth protocol stack
local/sbc 1.1-1
    Bluetooth Subband Codec (SBC) library

Then I got the bluetooth service working via systemctl and then configured in the command line and did not attempt to use the KDE bluetooth at all - mouse is much smoother and works a lot better! The key facility is bluetoothctl which is available once bluez5 is running.

Here is the set of commands:

1) Start the daemon

[root@lapmike3 ~]# systemctl start bluetooth
[root@lapmike3 ~]# systemctl status bluetooth
bluetooth.service - Bluetooth service
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/bluetooth.service; disabled)

Aug 12 20:20:38 lapmike3 bluetoothd[1824]: Bluetooth management interface 1.3 initialized

2) Now use the available tools to set up the BT mouse pairing:

[root@lapmike3 ~]# hciconfig

BT mouse now fine .

To make it work after reboot just make the following file:

[mike@lapmike3 ~]$ cat /etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules 
# Set bluetooth power up
ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="hci0", RUN+="/usr/bin/hciconfig hci0 up"

Another user I was in communication with used this method as well and also then had no problems after this.  How did your own method differ from this way of setting it up?

Re: Linux 3.11 - (Intel) bluetooth broken after resuming from suspend

Hi mcloaked,

There is no "technique" involved and while I don't remember for sure I think I paired my mouse via gnome-bluetooth.
But this was more than half an year ago.
It worked flawlessly up until I upgraded to the first revision of the linux 3.11 kernel that went stable on arch.
At first I waited to see if the next kernel revision (or version) fixes the problem but it didn't (or else I wouldn't have opened this thread in the first place)

Downgrading only the kernel from 3.11 to 3.10 solves the problem, with blues 5.9 installed.
I even had tested the newer 3.11 kernels before upgrading from bluez4 to the new blues (5) and it was the same: on linux 3.10 everything is just fine, on linux 3.11 my mouse stops reconnecting after the laptop resumes from suspend.
But I already said that too..

Thank you for at least trying to help.

But this is tail chasing because Bluez is not responsible for this problem. It's kinda obvious.

Re: Linux 3.11 - (Intel) bluetooth broken after resuming from suspend

Just a shot in the dark but is there a possibility that something is not right in the configs  (but hard to find what) as a result of the original pairing in terms of being incompatible with bluez5?  If so maybe it is worth unpairing the mouse - and pairing it again using the technique I gave above which does not depend on the DE bluetooth code, and seeing if it makes any difference - of course there may be a reply from one of the experts in your bug report that you quote which may resolve the issue before too long - and maybe there are some diagnostics that can be run to give a clue as to what underlies the failure on recovery from suspend.  However it does seem that there are still a lot of bugs generally associated with the suspend/resume process.

Re: Linux 3.11 - (Intel) bluetooth broken after resuming from suspend

Well.. I just tried unpairing and pairing the mouse again.
It didn't help and it comes as no surprise.

What would the kernel have to do with the bluetooth pairing anyway?
Because, as I stated a few times already, downgrading only the kernel to 3.10 (and no other changes whatsoever) solves the problem wink
(everything else stays, including Bluez which is at version 5.9-1)

This issue is annoying as hell already neutral

Re: Linux 3.11 - (Intel) bluetooth broken after resuming from suspend

Probably because there are bluetooth drivers in the kernel - eg see http://padovan.org/blog/tag/linux-bluetooth/ or http://www.bluez.org/about/

Also this Ubuntu bug may be related - specific to Gnome Bluetooth - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour … ug/1094744

Sure, only the kernel doesn't do the pairing part wink
[/offtopic alert]

The part with "drivers in the kernel" stands, and maybe that's where the problem comes from: the new (3.11) kernel and something maybe broken with those drivers.
That could explain why upgrading only the kernel (hence the drivers) makes things from working to broken (while nobody messed neither with the pairing which remained the same nor with the apps like Bluez which also stayed as they were before)

[edit]
Like I said: chasing tails around Bluez - which is innocent IMO

Thanks, I've read the comments on that bug report and..

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bug/1094744 wrote:

When you don't use the mouse for a long enough time, the mouse disconnects and won't reconnect. I have to go into bluetooth settings, remove it, and re-pair it.

I pretty much doubt it's related because my mouse never disconnects and repairing is not needed.
I have to either issue that bluetoothctl command = connect [BT mac] after resuming from suspend, or reboot the system to make my mouse work again.
No suspend = my mouse works indefinitely
+
Repairing doesn't help in my case, after the system resumed.

Also, I think that the bug reported on Ubuntu is closely related to that specific mouse model/manufacturer rather than related to the bluetooth adapter like in my case (as I suspect).
Also there's no mention of the kernel versions on the Ubuntu bug report and the problem described there seems to be present on more Ubuntu releases and flavors: 12.04, 13.04, 13.10 [K]ubuntu.
The BT mouse reconnect-after-resume problem that I have manifests with the linux 3.11.x kernels only - which is not the case with all those (some old, even long time support like 12.04) - Ubuntu versions. I don't think that Ubuntu backported 3.11 to the old releases, including 12.04 .

So.. I'm afraid that's a different problem than mine neutral

The bug I filed with Arch was closed and I've been told to report it upstream.
It'd have been nice to have more specifics.
I don't want to post bug reports in a hundred places and get the same result as on the Arch bug tracker (ping pong style), so pointing in the exact/right direction would be nice.

Can anyone help with this?

Re: Linux 3.11 - (Intel) bluetooth broken after resuming from suspend

The only "upstream" that I am aware of is http://www.bluez.org/development/lists/

This is mostly patches, rather than discussion of issues/problems.

The only recent bug report regarding bluez seems to be in the kernel bugzilla - so maybe that it is where reports need to be filed?

Re: Linux 3.11 - (Intel) bluetooth broken after resuming from suspend

Hi mcloaked,

and thanks for bearing with me so far.

I tested Hans de Goede's (of Redhat) patch which solves this kernel regression.

The full discussion, rationale and the patch can be found at: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ker … ocus=66112

Good to hear that the patch referred to works to solve this - if that is the case then it would be a good idea to mark this solved?

Re: Linux 3.11 - (Intel) bluetooth broken after resuming from suspend

Dunno, even if the rationale behind the fix seems sensible and the person who produced this regression admitted his guilt tongue .. I'd still like to see this patch merged "upstream" first.
The fix doesn't seem to be included in the upcoming linux kernel (3.12) ATM.

.. and because I never enjoyed patching things "by hand" (and that's also the main reason I'm not using LFS) I'll leave it as it is for now; maybe to post here if/when new developments on this issue present themselves.

Fixed (upstream) in 3.13 and also backported to the recent 3.12 kernel series.

Please close this thread.

Thanks!
