[solved] System hangs at sleep/poweroff/reboot

I built a new desktop pc a few weeks back and it worked fine. Sleeping, rebooting, etc. - all perfect. But I tried to do a BIOS/UEFI udpate a few days ago (because the old bios was over a year old and I got a Ryzen, so thought it might help with performance a bit). But ever since then (I had to fix my uefi boot partition too), the sleep/reboot/poweroff doens't work. Reboot/poweroff hangs at systemd messages (mostly complaining about watchdog not stopping), and sleep hangs at black screen with frozen mouse cursor.

I tried searching through bios settings, but nothing seems to be out of ordinary (though granted, I don't know what a lot of those do).

I also tried acpi=force as a kernel parameter, but it didn't help.

Is there anything I could do?

Downgrade your UEFI again if possible would be my suggestion, sounds like they broke something. Which motherboard are we talking about?

There are some known breaking problems with that AGESA version, see here as well for example: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=239350

Re: [solved] System hangs at sleep/poweroff/reboot

Thank you for the tip. I downgraded BIOS from F23 (AGESA 1.0.0.4) to F22 (AGESA 1.0.0.1a) and it worked.

It's a shame it didn't really help with https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=239706 too.
