Hi, On bugzilla https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1055228 , Gareth reported 6 second boot delay on 3.12 kernel. Delay does not happen if acpi_no_auto_ssdt option is used, nor if kernel is compiled with various debug facilities like LOCKDEP (fedora kernel-debug variant). We tried to compile kernel with just CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG=y, on that kernel issue was reproducible, but after enable printing messages, again issue disappeared (we tried acpi.debug_layer=0xffffffff together with acip.debug_level=0x0307ff4f and acip.debug_level=0x03000000, links to logs are provided in bugzilla). On affected kernels interesting dmesg part looks like below: [ 0.212035] [Firmware Bug]: ACPI: BIOS _OSI(Linux) query ignored [ 0.217930] ACPI: SSDT 0000000092e6ac18 003D3 (v01 PmRef Cpu0Cst 00003001 INTL 20121220) [ 0.218512] ACPI: Dynamic OEM Table Load: [ 0.218514] ACPI: SSDT (null) 003D3 (v01 PmRef Cpu0Cst 00003001 INTL 20121220) [ 0.222109] ACPI: SSDT 0000000092e6a618 005AA (v01 PmRef ApIst 00003000 INTL 20121220) [ 0.222792] ACPI: Dynamic OEM Table Load: [ 0.222799] ACPI: SSDT (null) 005AA (v01 PmRef ApIst 00003000 INTL 20121220) [ 0.226920] ACPI: SSDT 0000000092e69d98 00119 (v01 PmRef ApCst 00003000 INTL 20121220) [ 0.227495] ACPI: Dynamic OEM Table Load: [ 0.227497] ACPI: SSDT (null) 00119 (v01 PmRef ApCst 00003000 INTL 20121220) [ 6.812869] ACPI: Interpreter enabled With acpi_no_auto_ssdt option interesting part looks like this: [ 0.203230] [Firmware Bug]: ACPI: BIOS _OSI(Linux) query ignored [ 0.203595] ACPI Error: [SGMD] Namespace lookup failure, AE_NOT_FOUND (20130725/psargs-359) [ 0.203601] ACPI Error: Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_._OSC] (Node ffff880253859438), AE_NOT_FOUND (20130725/psparse-536) [ 0.206093] ACPI Error: [\_PR_.CPU0._PPC] Namespace lookup failure, AE_NOT_FOUND (20130725/psargs-359) [ 0.206102] ACPI Error: Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.LPCB.EC0_.SASU] (Node ffff8802538570a0), AE_NOT_FOUND (20130725/psparse-536) [ 0.206108] ACPI Error: Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.LPCB.EC0_.ECMI] (Node ffff880253857078), AE_NOT_FOUND (20130725/psparse-536) [ 0.206113] ACPI Error: Method parse/execution failed [\_SB_.PCI0.LPCB.EC0_._REG] (Node ffff880253856910), AE_NOT_FOUND (20130725/psparse-536) [ 0.206122] Fail in evaluating the _REG object of EC device.
