Subject: Re: TSC not updating after resume: Bug or Feature?

OK, it seems that you got it.

The system survived two hibernation / resume cycles without triggering
the warning and, probably the most important part, the dmesg does not
have any "jumps" before the "Force enable HPET on resume" line as
before:

[  275.647704] PM: Creating hibernation image:
[  275.648005] PM: Need to copy 177844 pages

[  275.648005] Force enabled HPET at resume
[  275.648005] ACPI: Waking up from system sleep state S4
[  275.669038] ACPI: EC: non-query interrupt received, switching to

[  275.740697] pcieport-driver 0000:00:01.0: setting latency timer to 64
[  275.740781] pcieport-driver 0000:00:1c.0: setting latency timer to 64
[  275.740786] pciehp 0000:00:1c.0:pcie02: pciehp_resume ENTRY

...and so on.

As i mentioned in the bug report, to be sure that the bug doesn't
trigger I have to wait at least on day and > 10 hibernation / resumee
cycles.

But with your first patch the bug triggered at the second cycle, so
I'm optimist :-)

I'll keep you informed. Many thanks in advance,
Fabio
