Bug ID: 1084811 Summary: E-sata hotplugging stopped working since kernel 4.15 Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: x86-64 OS: openSUSE Factory Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel Assignee: kernel-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: attila.schler@atskler.net QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: ---
I have noticed that on my Dell E6520 notebook the e-sata hotplugging stopped working since kernel 4.15.
Currently I can observe this problem with kernel: 4.15.7-1.6-x86_64 4.16.0-rc4-4.g7a5941a-x86-64
The e-sata cable is OK, and an e-sata device can be used with kernel 4.15 if it is turned on and plugged in before powering on my notebook.
(The e-sata hotplugging works well with the Leap kernel 4.12.14-lp150.5.3-x86_64.)
___ (I’m not an advanced user, but I’m ready to follow detailed instructions.)

--- Comment #12 from Attila Schler attila.schler@atskler.net --- tlp !!!
It seems that this issue is the side-effect of tlp. I just uninstalled it and e-sata hotplugging started working again.
(This tlp and the like stuff should never be automatically installed on user systems without the most explicit and detailed info on what it will do by default, and without explicit consent from the user.)
