Thinkpad Yoga - SSD gets remounted read only when plugging in charger

Hi,

I've been using Arch on my Thinkpad S1 Yoga for a few weeks now.
Everything works great out of the box (except the accelerometer / HDAPS), but from time to time when I plug in the charger my SSD gets (re)mounted in read only mode.

Here's the journal: https://gist.github.com/pschmitt/9408211

I don't have any clue whether this would be a BTRFS, laptop-mode-tools or a physical issue, especially since *this isn't happening every time* I plug the laptop. Any help is appreciated.

Additional info:

$ hdparm -I /dev/sda

Re: Thinkpad Yoga - SSD gets remounted read only when plugging in charger

I have the same issue on Thinkpad Yoga S1 with SSD with ext4 filesystem. It never appeared while running Windows 8, only with Linux.

Re: Thinkpad Yoga - SSD gets remounted read only when plugging in charger

Well, according to the journal something is causing the SATA link to fail. It may or may not be related to some sort of hardware/firmware problem. Can you confirm that messages like the ones from the journal do not appear when not plugging/unplugging the cable?

Re: Thinkpad Yoga - SSD gets remounted read only when plugging in charger

Pls see this link which might help explain the situation:

https://github.com/linrunner/TLP/issues/84

The short story: if laptop-mode-tools is configured to place the SATA interface into a low power state (i.e., min_power) on battery, plugging in the power cable then switches the interface to a high power state (i.e., max_performance) with possibility of remounting the SSD as read-only:
