Here's the scenario:
Both the local and the remote machines are running linux. The local
machine is a laptop. The remote is headless and runs sshd. I often use
tramp to work on files on the remote machine from the local machine. So
I'll open a file on the remote machine with tramp, work on it for a
time, then some time later put the local machine into sleep mode. Going
into sleep mode obviously causes all internet connections to be lost,
including all of those from the local machine to the remote machine.
So, as is almost always the case, if I have a terminal window open from
the local to the remote via ssh, it is lost when the local is put to
sleep, and upon waking I must rerun "ssh remote-machine" to get it
back. That's to be expected (at least until ssh becomes a lot more
refined and sophisticated).
Similarly, when I have a remote file open in tramp/emacs, put the local
machine to sleep, bring it out of sleep, and then try to work on that
remote file some more, then there is the problem. Specifically, I can
edit the buffer, but when I try to save the buffer, emacs hangs, for
minutes if I wait that long.
I can always break that hang by doing "C-g". But then the file will not
be saved. Sometimes if I try "C-x C-s" again, it will work, and the
buffer will be saved, but not always. Sometimes it will take third or
fourth attempt to save the remote buffer. But sometimes even that many
repeated attempts all fail. Yesterday, after multiple such attempts to
save, all not working, I identified the "ssh -e remote-machine" process
which was the child process to emacs and killed it -- after doing that,
I did "C-x C-s" in emacs and the remote file was successfully saved.
Sometimes with such a hang emacs will display Debugger output, most of
the time it doesn't. Yesterday, prior to my killing the child ssh
process emacs displayed the following (byte-code removed for brevity,
sorry for any unintended word-wrapping):
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (args-out-of-range 60 198)
