Title:
Broadcom Corp. BCM5880 Secure Applications Processor eats too much
power
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
$ lsusb
Bus 004 Device 004: ID 0a5c:5800 Broadcom Corp. BCM5880 Secure Applications Processor
$ sudo powertop
Power est. Usage Events/s Kategorie Popis
24.3 W 100,0% Device USB device: 5880 (Broadcom Corp)
On my Dell Latitude E6540 I constantly see this USB device eating
about 20 W of power (and I don't see a reason for this kind of device
to take that much power). And yes, the fan is always running, even
when the computer is completely idle.
The computer has no fingerprint reader (though it was an optional
accessory, so the chip is IMHO built to support it). I use the
integrated smartcard reader (also handled by this chip). I've set up
PAM and LightDM to support smartcard login. However, the power usage
is the same regardless of whether a smartcard is inserted or not. I do
not intentionally use the integrated TPM chip in any way.
I faced this problem also on Ubuntu 14.04.3 with 3.19 kernel.
Eventually, this could also be a bug in powertop, but the fan almost
never stops (even with display backlight to minimum), so I think
powertop could be correct.
