[Bug 1578528] Re: inteldrmfb: blank VT consoles after many suspend/resume cycles
Clean install of 16.04 amd64.
Testing with an updated kernel won't help since I've so far been unable
to determine a scenario which can reliably reproduce the issue. If/when
that is possible I'll test.
I do however routinely operate with my own mainline kernel builds so
reproducing may be hit-and-miss.

Title:
inteldrmfb: blank VT consoles after many suspend/resume cycles
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
16.04 on an Asus T300CHI (Intel GPU).
$ uname -a
Linux T300CHI 4.4.0-21-lowlatency #37-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT Mon Apr 18 20:20:26 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I found today that switching from X to the VT consoles resulted in a
blank screen. Switching between VTs likewise. Switching back to the
GUI on tty7 the (GUI) display returns.
The system was last booted 4 or 5 days ago and has been through
several suspend/resume cycles since then.
Whilst switched to tty1 using a remote SSH shell I adjusted the
backlight brightness but without revealing any text.
I then did a blind login and the remote SSH shell showed a login and
shell process were started. This seems to indicate the problem is in
the framebuffer driver.
I did a system restart and found the VT consoles working fine. I did
several suspend/resume cycles but so far was unable to reproduce the
issue.
I suspect I've not done enough cycles yet, or alternatively the issue
is triggered by something I did during the previous 5-day boot session
although I cannot think of anything obvious that could have this
effect.
