It got ugly. We finish swsusp_save() and a few other functions then we go hibernate ->platform_finish ->acpi_hibernation_finish ->acpi_leave_sleep_state ->acpi_evaluate_object and there it dies, in this call: status = acpi_evaluate_object(NULL, METHOD_NAME__WAK, &arg_list, NULL); I wonder how your patch caused that? <debugs further> OK, it gets to the last statement in acpi_evaluate_object(): return_ACPI_STATUS(status); but doesn't hit the printk on return to the caller, acpi_leave_sleep_state(). A working theory would be that something we did trashed the stack in acpi_evaluate_object(). <switches from 8k stacks to 4k. No change> foo. I'm not sure what to do now. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
