USB keyboard can NOT wakeup from S3( suspend to RAM )

Hi,Greg

Thanks.
Yes, the suspending takes very litte time.
But the time ,which the suspending takes,  has something to do with the hardware.
Especially when you using an old mechanical  hard disk or something like that.


how do you know you are hitting the key "during" the suspend?
And after notice the problem, I do some hack to confirm that it have to be during the suspending process:
Within funcion  kernel/power/suspend.c (4.9 version kernel source)
static int suspend_enter(suspend_state_t state, bool *wakeup),
I added a line code
mdelay(5000); 
just before
error = platform_suspend_prepare_late(state);
to increase the time window.
Then rebuild&install the kernel.
After the new kernel runs up, now much easier (we got about 5 seconds more)  to reproduce the bug.


Thanks for your time.

Jim

I really do not know, sorry.  Given taht suspend to ram go so fast, how
do you know you are hitting the key "during" the suspend?  It's an
almost instantaneous process.
 
Check your bios settings about this, or, just don't touch the keyboard
until you really do want to wake it up :)
 
good luck!
