   Bug#1128632: linux-image-6.12.73+deb13-a   
   22 Feb 26 03:30:01   
   
   XPost: linux.debian.bugs.dist   
      
   Package: linux-image-6.12.73+deb13-amd64   
   Version: 6.12.73+deb13-amd64   
   Severity: important   
      
      
      
   Dear Debian Kernel Team,   
      
      
   I would like to report several boot and power-management issues observed after   
   installing kernel version 6.12.73+deb13-amd64 on older Ivy Bridge hardware.   
      
   System Information   
      
      
   Motherboard: ASUS Sabertooth Z77   
   CPU: Intel Core i7-3770K (Ivy Bridge)   
   Firmware: UEFI (legacy-compatible board)   
   Distribution: Debian (stable branch)   
   Architecture: amd64   
   GPU: NVIDIA (proprietary driver installed)   
      
      
   Problem Description   
      
   After upgrading to kernel 6.12.73+deb13-amd64, the system exhibits multiple   
   boot and runtime problems:   
      
      
   Boot failures occur intermittently with the following messages:   
      
      
      
   EFI stub: ERROR: Failed to decompress kernel   
   EFI stub: ERROR: efi_stub_entry() failed   
      
      
      
   During successful boots, ACPI-related errors appear in dmesg involving   
   unresolved symbols and SATA controller initialization (_GTF/DSSP related   
   messages).   
      
      
   System suspend behavior is unreliable:   
   *When placing the system into sleep mode, the computer immediately wakes   
   without user interaction.   
      
      
   Overall system startup appears noticeably slower compared to previous kernels.   
      
   Expected Behavior   
      
   The system boots reliably without EFI stub errors, ACPI warnings, or   
   unexpected wake events during suspend.   
      
   Observed Behavior   
      
   Kernel 6.12.73+deb13-amd64 causes intermittent boot loader failures,   
   ACPI-related warnings, and unreliable suspend functionality on this hardware.   
      
   Workaround   
      
   Booting an earlier kernel (e.g., 6.12.69+deb13-amd64) restores normal behavior   
   and eliminates the EFI decompression failure and sleep issues.   
      
   Additional Notes   
      
   Reinstalling the kernel temporarily resolved the EFI decompression error,   
   suggesting either a regression affecting older firmware platforms or   
   sensitivity during installation on legacy UEFI implementations.   
      
      
   Please let me know if additional logs, dmesg output, or hardware information   
   would be helpful for debugging.   
      
      
   Best regards,

Package: linux-image-6.12.       3+deb13-amd64
Version: 6.1       .73+deb13-amd64
Severity:        mportant

Dear        Debian Kernel Team,

I        would like to report several boot and power-management issues observed        after installing kernel version 6.12.73+deb13-amd64 on older Ivy Bridge        hardware.

System Information

Motherboard: ASUS Sabertooth        77
CPU: Intel Core i7-3770K (Ivy       Bridge)
       Firmware: UEFI (legacy-compatible board)
Distribution: Debian (stable branch)
Architecture: amd64
GPU: NVIDIA (proprietary driver installed)<       /span>

Problem Description

After upgrading to kernel 6.12.73+deb13-amd64, the system       exhibits multiple boot and runtime problems:

  1. <       span>Boot failures occur intermittently with the following messa       es:

    EFI stub: ERROR:       Failed to decompress kernel
    EFI stub:       ERROR: efi_stub_entry() failed
           

  2. During        successful boots, ACPI-related errors appear in dmesg involving        unresolved symbols and SATA controller initialization (_GTF/DSSP related        messages).

  3. System suspend behavior       is unreliable:
    *When placing the system into sleep mode, the computer       immediately wakes without user interaction.

  4. Overall system        startup appears noticeably slower compared to previous kernels.<       span>

Expected Behavior

The system boots reliably without EFI stub errors, ACPI       warnings, or unexpected wake events during        suspend.

Observed Behavior

Kernel        6.12.73+deb13-amd64 causes intermittent boot loader failures,        ACPI-related warnings, and unreliable suspend functionality on this        hardware.

Workaround

Booting        an earlier kernel (e.g., 6.12.69+deb13-amd64) restores normal behavior        and eliminates the EFI decompression failure and sleep issues.

Additional Notes

Please let me know if additional logs, dmesg output, or       hardware information would be helpful for debugging.

Best regards,

<       p>Donovan
