[Lenovo ThinkPad Edge E540] Suspend Failure

This change was made by a bot.

Updated the BIOS to the newest version, this ist the output of dmidecode:

J9ET91WW (2.11 )
07/04/2014

The suspend behaviour is unchanged

I have the exact same issue on Ubuntu 13.10 and 14.04, I've also tried running kernel 3.15, issue persisted. Disabling USB 3.0 fixes it, but I had to also add this in order to run ethernet after resume

gksu mousepad /etc/pm/config.d/unload_modules
SUSPEND_MODULES="$SUSPEND_MODULES r8169"

Jörn Horstmann, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available from the very top line at the top of the page (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-3.16-rc4

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding.

Destroyer, thank you for your comment. So your hardware and problem may be tracked, could you please file a new report with Ubuntu by executing the following in a terminal while booted into the default Ubuntu kernel (not a mainline one) via:
ubuntu-bug linux

Christpher, thanks for guiding me through this process. The bug still exists in the latest upstream rc:

$ uname -a
Linux JH-EDGE-E540 3.16.0-031600rc4-generic #201407061635 SMP Sun Jul 6 20:36:26 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Attached is the dmesg output after following the steps described at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspend

Jörn Horstmann, could you please provide the missing information following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspend ?

Here is the output of `cat /proc/acpi/wakeup`, sorry I missed that while reading the wiki the first time. Did I miss anything else?

Jörn Horstmann, the issue you are reporting is an upstream one. Could you please report this problem through the appropriate channel by following the instructions _verbatim_ at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/kernel ?

Please provide a direct URL to your e-mail to the mailing list once you have made it so that it may be tracked.

Thank you for your understanding.

This issue is now also reported on the kernel bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80351

Jörn Horstmann, I'm not clear on why you submitted a bug report based on the instructions provided in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1340376/comments/10 , as it doesn't mention that anywhere. As well, you didn't include most of this information upstream requires when reporting to the mailing list (not Bugzilla).

That instructions could have been a bit more clear on what the correct upstream mailing list was.

I first tried on linux-usb (http://marc.info/?l=linux-usb&m=140534633328101&w=2) and got pointed to linux-pm (http://marc.info/?l=linux-usb&m=140535047629911&w=2) where I was instructed to file a bug in bugzilla (http://marc.info/?l=linux-pm&m=140542653722449&w=2).

The information from the form described at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/kernel was included in the mailing list posts and is also attached to bugzilla. If there is any information still missing please let me know.

The BIOS bug is being discussed on a Lenovo forum at https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/11e-Windows-E-and-Edge-series/E540-Suspend-Resume-failure/td-p/1780813

According to bugzilla.kernel.org this is fixed in BIOS(UEFI) 2.18. Cheers!

Jörn Horstmann, as per http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/thinkpad-edge-laptops/thinkpad-edge-e540 an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (2.18). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything?

If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette .

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't have to create a new bug report.

Once the BIOS is updated, and the information above is provided, then please mark this report Status Confirmed.

Thank you for your understanding.

I faced this bug with BIOS 2.11.

Then I updated BIOS to the latest version 2.20 and I can confirm that suspend works fine now.

Thank you!

Status changed to "Fix Released" because the bug is out of the Linux scope and the BIOS updated that fixes this bug is released by the device vendor.

SilverFire, this is not Fix Released as defined in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Status .
