Hi all,
I have a Thinkpad T61p, which I'm able to suspend with s2ram on
Linux 2.6.24.3. However when I try to suspend it on 2.6.25-rc3, s2ram
dies after changing to vt1, with a segfault. I'm using s2ram from cvs,
and libx86 version 0.99 from http://www.codon.org.uk/~mjg59/libx86/.
Some details about the segfault:
$ sudo gdb ./s2ram
(gdb) run
Starting program: /home/ksm/downloads/suspend/s2ram
Switching from vt7 to vt1
Calling get_mode
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

I have tried to bisect the problem, and it fingered the following
commit:
commit 82bc03fc158e28c90d7ed9919410776039cb4e14
Author: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
x86: add PWT to NOCACHE flags
Reverting this commit in the bisected tree (by executing git show
82bc03fc158e28c90d7ed9919410776039cb4e14 | patch -R -p1), makes the
segfault go away. I've run make clean between each kernel compile, to be
sure the tree was correctly compiled.
I have attached the .config I'm using for 2.6.25-rc3 (when bisecting, I
just choose the default on every question). If necessary, I can try to
reconstruct the one I ended up with after the bisection.
Hope this makes sense to someone, and thanks in advance.
