[PATCH] x86: Fix reboot issue for Dell Optiplex 990 V2

[Thomas Renninger]

This was the only (reboot=p) option that worked for this desktop.
Default does not reboot as well.

V2: Remove copy and paste left over from another machine

I have this machine and can confirm reboot=pci is only way to get it to 
reboot. But also Dell's very recent Latitude E6520 laptop needs the same 
workaround. It would be nice to send a patch for it too.

[PATCH] X86: Solve Dell Latitudes do not reboot on x86_64 more generally

[Thomas Renninger]

There are quite some reports that those do not reboot:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/833705
->E6520, E6220
http://www.linux-club.de/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=114459&start=20
->E5520
and some more already are blacklisted

This patch improves the blacklist for all E6xxx and E5xxx Latitudes.

Strange is that on above Ubuntu bug it was mentioned that 32 bit
reboots just fine, which should use the same mechanism than 64 bit
by default (ACPI).

While this should solve the problem on short term for quite some users,
hopefully a more generic way is found sooner or later...

Just as another data point, my Latitude E6500 does *not* need this, as it's perfectly
happy using the default reboot method.  So please avoid the temptation to do
a match on "Latitude E6" ;)

Although this may be an issue with ACPI,
looks like this patch should go though TIP
because of the file changed.

thanks,

It's a bug in the SMM code on these machines, and it goes away if you 
disable VT-D. Let's try to actually fix it rather than adding to the 
blacklist, otherwise we'll just end up with another batch of broken 
Dells later on.

How do you intend to fix that?

Tear down VT-D state before reboot.

But doing this for all X86 machines because of a handful of
Dells with broken SMM code sounds wrong as well.

Doesn't Dell ship with Ubuntu pre-loaded?
Can't someone point them to this to get this fixed in BIOS?

We've already torn everything down at this point. What's the downside?

I've been trying.

The SMM bugs relating to CPU0 pre-date the existence of VT-D

It is the same old story...
Linux is on thin-ice exercising FW that has been validated only
under (some version of) Windows.
