[imx8mp] cannot wake up from suspend if message sent to serial too early

[martinetd]

Hello,

Sometimes our imx8mp board does not wake up from suspend in regression testing.

It looks like when a message is sent to tty too early, the driver falls in a bad state and wake up from tty no longer works (wake up from another external source like gpio still works in this state, so suspend succeeded, only the wake up by tty stopped working)

This can be reproduced as follow, I've confirmed I can reproduce it on imx8mp-evk with multiple kernels from 5.10.72-2.2.2 to 6.6.3-1.0.0 so this doesn't look fixed.

root@imx8mpevk:~# echo enabled > /sys/class/tty/ttymxc1/power/wakeup
root@imx8mpevk:~# while true; do echo mem > /sys/power/state; done
(at this point, keep a key pressed -- this does not reproduce 100% of the time but after a dozen of suspend/resume the system will stop waking up; usually takes less than 30s. Logs below with the 'f' key pressed)

(hung here, no more feedback from tty)

The "keep key pressed" example is quite silly, but it's possible that the system decided to sleep after a timeout and at that precise timing an external wakeup event comes and gets stuck (this is what happens in our test), so it'd be great to fix this.

It's likely that a key event comes between enabling wakeup in drivers/tty/serial/imx.c's imx_uart_suspend() and the actual suspend and the state machine gets somehow incorrectly stuck; perhaps not disabling irq and catching these (calling pm_system_wakeup() from the irq if one came after suspend started) would work better?

Thanks.

Hello ,

Does this feature ( suspend to RAM ) supported in the Android BSP ?

[Bio_TICFSL]

Hello,

Something is bad with the current driver, I will report immediately thanks for the catch. could you telll me what pins are you using?

Regards

Hi @Bio_TICFSL

Have you heard back from the developers?
Would be happy to test a workaround or anything you could provide.

(The linux-imx lf-6.6.23-2.0.0 tag was pushed last week and I've quickly checked the content but there doesn't seem to have been a fix this fast -- I'm not in a very big hurry here, but our platform test failed again on this problem earlier today so I got curious and checked)

Thanks,
Dominique

Hello,

The issue is not reproducible with latest kernel, please provide a test code to check it.

Regards

[martinetd]

Thank you for the quick reply, sorry I hadn't noticed it.

I've just updated to last week's release and can still reproduce on imx8mp-evk / BSP v6.6.23-2.0.0

This does not reproduce every time, in the above snippet you can see "suspend exit" 4 times so wake up worked 4 times but the 5th time it got stuck.

"test code" is really all there is to this quote: enable wake up from tty with `echo enabled > /sys/class/tty/ttymxc1/power/wakeup` then repeat entering sleep in a loop with `while true; do echo mem > /sys/power/state; done`, at which point holding a key down over serial should wake it up in a loop but the system gets stuck in sleep state shortly. (I also enabled more messages to console with `dmesg -n 7` to get feedback, but that is not required)

Using another wake up method (e.g. rtc or gpio input) does get out of sleep in this case, so it must be an issue in the ttymxc driver.

I'm not sure why you would not be able to reproduce with this procedure, perhaps some hardware difference on the exact revision I'm using? This is on an evk we got a long time ago, but I've flashed exactly the image off the NXP site, and can also reproduce on our board with the same tty pins.

Thanks

Thanks for the quick reply!

We're using the same pins as the imx8mp-evk, MX8MP_IOMUXC_UART2_RXD__UART2_DCE_RX / MX8MP_IOMUXC_UART2_TXD__UART2_DCE_TX

Thanks,
