Some Kingston A2000 NVMe SSDs sooner or later get confused and stop working when they use the deepest APST sleep while running Linux. The system then crashes and one has to cold boot it to get the SSD working again. Kingston seems to known about this since at least mid-September 2020: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1926994#p1926994 Someone working for a German company representing Kingston to the German press confirmed to me Kingston engineering is aware of the issue and investigating; the person stated that to their current knowledge only the deepest APST sleep state causes trouble. Therefore, make Linux avoid it for now by applying the NVME_QUIRK_NO_DEEPEST_PS to this SSD. I have two such SSDs, but it seems the problem doesn't occur with them. I hence couldn't verify if this patch really fixes the problem, but all the data in front of me suggests it should. This patch can easily be reverted or improved upon if a better solution surfaces. FWIW, there are many reports about the issue scattered around the web; most of the users disabled APST completely to make things work, some just made Linux avoid the deepest sleep state: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195039#c65 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195039#c73 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195039#c74 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195039#c78 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195039#c79 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195039#c80 https://askubuntu.com/questions/1222049/nvmekingston-a2000-sometimes-stops-giving-response-in-ubuntu-18-04dell-inspir https://community.acer.com/en/discussion/604326/m-2-nvme-ssd-aspire-517-51g-issue-compatibility-kingston-a2000-linux-ubuntu For the record, some data from 'nvme id-ctrl /dev/nvme0' NVME Identify Controller: vid : 0x2646 ssvid : 0x2646 mn : KINGSTON SA2000M81000G fr : S5Z42105 [...] ps 0 : mp:9.00W operational enlat:0 exlat:0 rrt:0 rrl:0 rwt:0 rwl:0 idle_power:- active_power:- ps 1 : mp:4.60W operational enlat:0 exlat:0 rrt:1 rrl:1 rwt:1 rwl:1 idle_power:- active_power:- ps 2 : mp:3.80W operational enlat:0 exlat:0 rrt:2 rrl:2 rwt:2 rwl:2 idle_power:- active_power:- ps 3 : mp:0.0450W non-operational enlat:2000 exlat:2000 rrt:3 rrl:3 rwt:3 rwl:3 idle_power:- active_power:- ps 4 : mp:0.0040W non-operational enlat:15000 exlat:15000 rrt:4 rrl:4 rwt:4 rwl:4 idle_power:- active_power:- Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 4.14+ Signed-off-by: Thorsten Leemhuis <linux@leemhuis.info> Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
