Hi Mario et al,
Eric Degenetais reported in Debian (cf. https://bugs.debian.org/1091696) for
his report, that after 7627a0edef54 ("ata: ahci: Drop low power policy board
type") rebooting the system fails (but system boots fine if cold booted).
For what it's worth, before getting these replies I tested the
ahci.mobile_lpm_policy=1 kernel parameter, which did work around the
problem.
The model and fw version of the SSD.
Anyway, I found it in the bug report:
Device Model: Samsung SSD 870 QVO 2TB
Firmware Version: SVQ02B6Q
The firmware for this SSD is not great, and has caused us a lot of pain
recently:

Basically, older firmware versions for this SSD have broken LPM, but from
user reports, the latest firmware version (which Eric is using) is
apparently working:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=219747
https://lore.kernel.org/stable/93c10d38-718c-459d-84a5-4d87680b4da7@xxxxxxxxxx/
Eric is using the latest SSD fimware version. So from other peoples reports,
I would expect things to work for him as well.
However, no one has reported that their UEFI does not detect their SSD.
This seems to be either SSD firmware bug or UEFI bug.
I would expect your UEFI to send a COMRESET even during a reboot, and a
according to AHCI spec a COMRESET shall take the decide out of sleep states.
Considering that no one else seems to have any problem when using the latest
firmware version for this SSD, this seems to be a problem specific to Eric.
So... UEFI bug?
Have you tried updating your BIOS?
I had not tried to update my bios (bit shy on this due to a problem long
ago with a power failure during bios update which left me with an
unbootable machine).
However, as far as I see, there is no newer version of it :
My mobo model is :
sudo dmidecode -t 2
# dmidecode 3.4
Getting SMBIOS data from sysfs.
SMBIOS 2.7 present.
Handle 0x0002, DMI type 2, 15 bytes
Base Board Information
Manufacturer: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC.
Product Name: M5A99X EVO R2.0
Version: Rev 1.xx
From asus's website I get that the latest bios version for this model
is version
M5A99X EVO R2.0 BIOS 2501
Version 2501
3.06 MB
2014/05/14
And I appear to already use it :
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version
2501
Kind regards,
Niklas
kind regards,
Eric
