Hi Greg,
I'm not the reporter, so would like to confirm him explicitly, but I
believe I can give some context:

Hello,
The patch " [PATCH] nouveau: explicitly wait on the fence in
nouveau_bo_move_m2mf" [1] was marked for kernels v5.15+ and it was merged
upstream.
The same patch [1] works with kernel 5.10.y, but it is not been merged
upstream so far.
According to Karol Herbst suggestion [2], I'm sending this message to ask
for merging it into 5.10 kernel.
We need to know the git commit id. And have you tested it on 5.10.y?
And why are you stuck on 5.10.y for this type of hardware? Why not move
to 5.15.y or 6.1.y?
This would be commit 6b04ce966a73 ("nouveau: explicitly wait on the
fence in nouveau_bo_move_m2mf") in mainline, applied in 6.0-rc3 and
backported to 5.19.6 and 5.15.64.
Computer Enthusiastic, tested it on 5.10.y:
https://lore.kernel.org/nouveau/CAHSpYy1mcTns0JS6eivjK82CZ9_ajSwH-H7gtDwCkNyfvihaAw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
It was reported in Debian by the user originally as
https://bugs.debian.org/989705#69 after updating to the 5.10.y series in Debian
bullseye.
I guess the user could move to the next stable release Debian bookworm, once
it's released (it's currently in the last milestones to finalize, cf.
https://release.debian.org/ but we are not yet there). In the next release this
will be automatically be fixed indeed.
Computer Enthusiastic, can you confirm please to Greg in particular the first
questions, in particular to confirm the commit fixes the suspend issue?
Regards,
Salvatore
Thanks for replaying to my request: I really appreciate.
I apologize if my request was not formally correct.
The upstream kernel 5.10.y hangs on suspend or fails to resume if it is
suspended to ram or suspended to disk (if nouveau kernel module is used
with some nvidia graphic cards).
I confirm the commit ID 6b04ce966a73 (by Karol Herbst) fixes the
aforementioned suspend to ram and suspend to disk issues with kernel
5.10.y . It tested it with my own computer.
The last kernel version I tested is 5.10.165, that I patched and
installed in Debian Stable (11.6) that I'm currently running and that I
tested again today.
It would be nice if the next point release of Debian Stable could ship a
kernel that includes patch commit ID 6b04ce966a73 for the benefit of
nouveau module users.
Thanks again.
