On the single-core machine, suspend/resume (RAM) worked fine even with the bluetooth module enabled. On the new dual-core machine, resuming with bluetooth enabled results in an infinite(?) lockup in an unbounded loop in hub_tt_kevent(). With PM debug on, I see tens of thousands of these messages scrolling on the console: kernel: usb 5-1: clear tt 4 (9042) error -71 kernel: usb 5-1: clear tt 4 (9042) error -71 kernel: usb 5-1: clear tt 4 (9042) error -71 (over and over and ...) By restricting iterations on the unbounded loop the machine is able to resume again. Greg / Marcel: any words of wisdom? And we should probably put bounds permanently on that loop: I devised/used this patch to accomplish it. Now, I still get close to a thousand or so such messages, in groups, showing up in syslog, but at least the system can resume after suspend.
