This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled ACPI / OSL: Use 'jiffies' as the time bassis for acpi_os_get_timer() to the 4.19-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: acpi-osl-use-jiffies-as-the-time-bassis-for-acpi_os_get_timer.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.19 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 83b2348e2755db48fa8f40fdb791f366fabc0ba0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@xxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 17 Oct 2018 13:24:56 -0700 Subject: ACPI / OSL: Use 'jiffies' as the time bassis for acpi_os_get_timer() From: Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@xxxxxxx> commit 83b2348e2755db48fa8f40fdb791f366fabc0ba0 upstream. Since acpi_os_get_timer() may be called after the timer subsystem has been suspended, use the jiffies counter instead of ktime_get(). This patch avoids that the following warning is reported during hibernation: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 612 at kernel/time/timekeeping.c:751 ktime_get+0x116/0x120 RIP: 0010:ktime_get+0x116/0x120 Call Trace: acpi_os_get_timer+0xe/0x30 acpi_ds_exec_begin_control_op+0x175/0x1de acpi_ds_exec_begin_op+0x2c7/0x39a acpi_ps_create_op+0x573/0x5e4 acpi_ps_parse_loop+0x349/0x1220 acpi_ps_parse_aml+0x25b/0x6da acpi_ps_execute_method+0x327/0x41b acpi_ns_evaluate+0x4e9/0x6f5 acpi_ut_evaluate_object+0xd9/0x2f2 acpi_rs_get_method_data+0x8f/0x114 acpi_walk_resources+0x122/0x1b6 acpi_pci_link_get_current.isra.2+0x157/0x280 acpi_pci_link_set+0x32f/0x4a0 irqrouter_resume+0x58/0x80 syscore_resume+0x84/0x380 hibernation_snapshot+0x20c/0x4f0 hibernate+0x22d/0x3a6 state_store+0x99/0xa0 kobj_attr_store+0x37/0x50 sysfs_kf_write+0x87/0xa0 kernfs_fop_write+0x1a5/0x240 __vfs_write+0xd2/0x410 vfs_write+0x101/0x250 ksys_write+0xab/0x120 __x64_sys_write+0x43/0x50 do_syscall_64+0x71/0x220 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe Fixes: 164a08cee135 (ACPICA: Dispatcher: Introduce timeout mechanism for infinite loop detection) Reported-by: Fengguang Wu <fengguang.wu@xxxxxxxxx> References: https://lists.01.org/pipermail/lkp/2018-April/008406.html Signed-off-by: Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@xxxxxxx> Cc: 4.16+ <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> # 4.16+ Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
