[Yuv <1368908@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have set up to do the bisection.  I am not sure if what I have done is
right, so here it is, comments are welcome.

Requirements:
* about 12 GB of free disk space
* 3-4 hours (YMMV depending on internet connection speed and processing power)

Dependencies:
* Some were already present on the machine and the others I worked myself with apt-get every time the process broke, based on the error messages.  Next time I shall start from a clean slate install and document exactly what dependencies I have installed.

Initial Setup:

mkdir -p ~/src/kernel
cd ~/src/kernel
git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git linux-stable
git clone git://kernel.ubuntu.com/kteam-tools.git kteam-tools
cd linux-stable
git remote add trusty git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-trusty.git
git config user.email "my@xxxxxxxxxx"
git config user.name "me"
git checkout -b mybisect origin/master
git bisect start
git bisect good v3.12.30
git bisect bad v3.14-rc4

output of the last command:
Bisecting: a merge base must be tested
[5e01dc7b26d9f24f39abace5da98ccbd6a5ceb52] Linux 3.12

build and install first bisection:

cp /boot/config-`uname -r` .config
make oldconfig
make clean
make -j `getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN` deb-pkg LOCALVERSION=-custom
cd ..
mkdir first
mv *.dpkg first/
cd first
sudo dpkg -i linux-*

now I have rebooted into this first interaction kernel and the challenge
is to reproduce the bug.  This may take some days.

Title:
  [Sony VAIO SVP13215CDB] suspend/resume failure

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  System worked well with Xubuntu 13.10.  Installed Xubuntu 14.04LTS
  from scratch. Now the system is unstable.

  To reproduce:
  * boot up
  * close the laptop lid
  * reopen the lid
  * try to access files
  * repeat

  Usually, after closing the laptop's lid, the system will correctly go
  to sleep.  Sometimes the system is OK after reopening the lid, but
  eventually and consistently, after a few cycles, reopening the lid
  turns the screen back on but every command fails. Disks and USB keys
  give buffer I/O errors, the system is unstable and I am left with no
  other option than to long-press the power button and lose work.
