The quirk updates have landed here in the linux-block tree here: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/axboe/linux- block.git/commit/?h=for- linus&id=be56945c4edd5a3da15f8254b68d1ddb1588d0c4
Reporters, could you test that kernel? (Or Kai-Heng, is there a way you could build a test kernel that people could use?) The current 4.11 queue does not disable APST entirely on Samsung devices. Instead it turns off the deepest sleep state on the affected drives on the affected laptops. Hopefully this covers all the problematic cases. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1678184 Title: APST quirk needed for Samsung 512GB NVMe drive Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: APST support just landed in the latest Zesty kernel (4.10.0-14.16) as part of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1664602. That patch has a quirk for certain 256GB Samsung drives found in Dell laptops that do not behave well when APST is enabled. I am experiencing the same symptoms with the same model laptop except with a 512GB Samsung. Prior to manually disabling APST the drive would die and system would go down in flames with I/O errors within 20 to 40 minutes of boot. $ sudo nvme list Node SN Model Namespace Usage Format FW Rev ---------------- -------------------- ---------------------------------------- --------- -------------------------- ---------------- -------- /dev/nvme0n1 ************** PM951 NVMe SAMSUNG 512GB 1 500.20 GB / 512.11 GB 512 B + 0 B BXV76D0Q ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 17.04 Package: linux-image-4.10.0-14-generic 4.10.0-14.16 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.10.0-14.16-generic 4.10.3 Uname: Linux 4.10.0-14-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.4-0ubuntu2 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: ajclayton 3305 F.... pulseaudio CurrentDesktop: Unity:Unity7 Date: Fri Mar 31 09:42:38 2017 InstallationDate: Installed on 2012-09-08 (1665 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Release amd64 (20120425) MachineType: Dell Inc.
