(In reply to John H. from comment #9) To this end I have had some changes I've made to firmware_class which I'd like you to test. Is it possible for you to test random kernel trees ?
If so can you test this branch ?
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mcgrof/linux-next.git/log/ ?h=20170329-driver-data-v2-try2
havn't build a kernel in a while, but i'll try.
It would be appreciated, at this point this is an issue upstream, so we need to engage and fix that there and using upstream kernels will help a lot here.
If its hard for you to do this though let me know and I can provide some kernel builds, that will just take time though.
Note that using linux-next is very likely to not even boot, not due to a driver issue specific to this issue but also due to many churn in code not yet ironed out in line waiting to get upstream. So thanks for testing -- but if you run into issues with it don't be surprised.
boot? let's hope this commit will build (i used `make oldconfig`) :-). i'm away
most of the day, so don't expect a quick reply. if you want me to build a
kernel on a specific commit or specific .config, it's possible :-)

just had this while trying to access a tty from X.
How exactly did this happen. You booted up, and after a while you switch to a tty from X ? No suspend / resume at all ?
no suspend / resume. i just wanted to switch to another runlevel so i pressed ctrl + alt + f1 from X and then all rendering stopped because of the above bug. i sshd into the machine and saw i had to reboot...
Using CTLR + ALT + F1 will not switch run levels, it will just spawn a tty for you. You can also use /usr/bin/chvt for the same these days as some distros do not allow to trap CTRL + ALT + F1 anymore.
The equivalent to CTRL + ALT + F1 now: chvt 1
And going back to CTRL + ALT + F7 chvt 7
yep and from that spawned tty i wanted to do `sudo systemctl isolate multi-user.target` -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
