No problem thank you for testing this.

Thanks.

So thinking more about this I think the DMAR errors are actually the real cause of the issue here, specifically if we replace: f0 with 00 (I guess DMAR uses the high bits for its own purposes) in

`[INTR-REMAP] Request device [f0:1f.0] fault index 0x0`

then the device ID is 00:1f.0 which is the ISA bridge and [INTR-REMAP] errors are known to disable interrupts. The PS/2 controller (which sits behind the ISA bridge) interrupt getting disabled would explain the suspend/resume keyboard issue better then the atkbd.c changes I have been focusing on.

So then the question becomes why does the 6.7.1 kernel not show the DMAR errors. I don't see anything between 6.7.0 and 6.7.1 which explains this. But maybe your local build is using a different configuration which explains this.

Can you try your local 6.7.1 build without my 2 patches? The quickest way to do that would be to run: "git reset --hard HEAD~2" and then re-run the make commandos, this will re-use your previous build so it should be pretty quick.

If things still work after that then the problem is not with the atkbd code.

Hans
