Title:
Weird kernel timestamp jumping and incorrect time reported in kernel
messages
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
First, some history. I really noticed this after doing some
suspend/resume tests with a tool I've written. I noticed it after
adding in code to actually time the suspend and resume for each
iteration I run in a loop.
What I noticed is that, apparently, my laptop has been running for
over 18 Billion seconds. Or not.
Look in /var/log/messages which should be attached to this bug to see
what I mean. The important lines are between markers I inject through
syslogd that look like ---CHECKBOX SLEEP TEST START <timestamp>--- and
---CHECKBOX SLEEP TEST END <timestamp>---. Those mark the beginning
and end of each suspend/resume iteration.
Here are a few lines to give you an example of how the time is jumping
around:
Jun 11 11:16:28 klaatu kernel: [170340.742584] CPU 7 is now offline
Jun 11 11:16:28 klaatu kernel: [170340.742587] SMP alternatives: switching to
UP code
Jun 11 11:16:28 klaatu kernel: [170340.749378] Extended CMOS year: 2000
Jun 11 11:16:28 klaatu kernel: [18446744045.913778] CPU0: Thermal monitoring
enabled (TM1)
Jun 11 11:16:28 klaatu kernel: [18446744045.913839] Extended CMOS year: 2000
Jun 11 11:16:28 klaatu kernel: [18446744045.913887] Enabling non-boot CPUs ...
The first three lines are the final messages before the system fully
enters S3 and reduces power. The last three lines are the first
messages when the system beings to wake. The time between suspend and
wake is no more than 60 seconds in real time, but notices how I
managed to go from 170,000 seconds since boot to 18.4 billion...
I thought maybe it was just that I needed a reboot, so I did a reboot
and tried this test again:
Jun 11 11:22:30 klaatu kernel: [ 175.191572] CPU 7 is now offline
Jun 11 11:22:30 klaatu kernel: [ 175.191574] SMP alternatives: switching to
UP code
Jun 11 11:22:30 klaatu kernel: [ 175.197621] Extended CMOS year: 2000
Jun 11 11:22:30 klaatu kernel: [18446744053.029258] CPU0: Thermal monitoring
enabled (TM1)
Jun 11 11:22:30 klaatu kernel: [18446744053.029263] CPU 0 MCA banks CMCI:8
Jun 11 11:22:30 klaatu kernel: [18446744053.029323] Extended CMOS year: 2000
So you can see that I did the suspend immediately after a fresh reboot
and login. The system had only been running for 175 seconds or so.
BUT, again, the last three lines are the first messages during resume,
and once more, the timestamps are showing 18 Billion seconds.
Hardware:
This is being seen on an Alienware M15x with a Quad Core i7 Intel chip and
4GB RAM.
The kernel is 2.6.32-22-generic 64 Bit from the latest 10.04 LTS updates
I am NOT overclocking or anything like that, and I am NOT booting with any
special parameters, this is a completely stock 10.04 LTS install.
I'm not positive on how to recreate these steps. The code in my test
tool is simply doing things you can do manually:
echo "+60" > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm
pm-suspend
Then after the system resumes, it checks the logs and calculates the
time to suspend and time to resume using those timestamps.
