Random hibernation failure

HI everyone,

I've had troubles with hibernation for a few weeks (can't remember precisely when it began). Before describing the problem, I insist that everything used to work fine.

Here is the problem: sometimes, when I wake up my laptop from hibernation, it fails and just reboots. That is, after grub, I have a black screen, and after a short moment it reboots (and the hibernation image is lost).

The tricky part is that I have nothing to help me debug, in particular journalctl gives me about nothing. Here are the entries in journalctl from the moment I ask for hibernation:

Between the last message and the reboot mark, there is the part where I start my laptop and it fails to recover, but it leaves no message whatsoever in the logs.

For the record, at the end of Xorg.0.log.old, I have this (but I don't think it's really related):

[  9582.530] (EE) intel(0): [DRI2] DRI2SwapComplete: bad drawable
[ 19078.353] (EE) intel(0): [DRI2] DRI2SwapComplete: bad drawable

[ 48904.855] (EE) intel(0): [DRI2] DRI2SwapComplete: bad drawable

Something that's worth considering, is that I had this problem with Xorg, which is now solved with xf86-video-intel-2.99.916. However, before it was solved, I had switched to SNA instead of UXA, and I think I had no hibernation problem. I'm back to UXA so I may try to revert again to SNA, but first I would like to know where the problem comes from...

Config
Graphics: Intel + NVidia (nvidia driver), with Bumblebee
linux 3.16.3
Xorg 1.16.0-6
xf86-video-intel-2.99.916

Thanks!

Re: Random hibernation failure

Update: I tried switching to SNA, but I still got the problem (I also updated all my packages on Sunday). Anyone has any idea on the matter?

Re: Random hibernation failure

Try with linux-lts.

Re: Random hibernation failure

Try with linux-lts.

Well if this an unique bug that only op has, it should be reported/fixed upstream otherwise there is no guaranty that it will be fixed in the next lts release.

Re: Random hibernation failure

I think you're right ugjka, so I should report it on Linux bugzilla? The thing is I have almost nothing to report in terms of logs...

Re: Random hibernation failure

Well, see if it occurs on linux-lts, at least it might tell you if it's really the kernel.

I had something like that, my netbook was randomly rebooting instead of thawing, I think it was mostly on linux-ck.

The problem indeed is that you can't really get any logs. You can only see if it occurs on different kernels (or try to find some other variable that triggers it). At least it would give the kernel guys something to work with.

Re: Random hibernation failure

Just an update to say that after having another 3.16-related issue (kernel panic with VirtualBox and a VM on an NTFS partition), I decided to move to linux-lts. The bug has not occurred since, so it is very likely that it is indeed a bug in Linux 3.16 (or even 3.15).

I just looked at the the changelog of 3.16.4, and this commit may very well apply to my case: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kerne … 95cfe005c0. But I think I'll stay on LTS until the NTFS issues are resolved...
