Subject: Re: Abysmal HDD/USB write speed after sleep on a UEFI system

hello
i have same problem. low write speed after system sleep

kernel 3.9.9

i can see it HDD SATA & USB disks to

i try to make another test

before sleep i make file /tmp/test ( /tmp mounted as tmpfs size=8G, i have
16G memory in my system )

dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=1000 of=/tmp/test
~ 3,2 GB/s
cryptsetup luksFormat /tmp/test
cryptsetup luksOpen /tmp/test test

dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=1000 of=/dev/mapper/test
~ 465 GB/s good speed

after sleep

dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=1000 of=/dev/mapper/test
~ 5MB/s ooops (((( very slow

but if write directly in /tmp i can see

dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=1000 of=/tmp/test2
~ 3,2 GB/s

I can see this is not hardware problem (NOT SATA OR USB) i think is kernel
BUG, i i dont have this problem on previous kernel 3.4

Best regards,

Tema

Thanks for this report. Artem collected some of his info here:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53551 . Hendrik Haddorp
also reported seeing this issue there.

Artem reported that Windows complains "The system firmware has changed
the processor's memory type range registers (MTRRs) across a sleep
state transition (S4). This can result in reduced resume performance."
If you have Windows on your system, does it complain the same way?

Can you collect and attach complete dmesg and "lspci -vvv" logs, from
both working and broken kernels, to the bugzilla? Collect lspci logs
both before and after the sleep; I think Artem saw some differences
between those, and I'm not sure we completely ruled those out.

If anybody can reproduce this reliably enough to bisect it, that would
be a huge help.
