|    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,                     Donovan                     --        Secured with Tuta Mail:        https://tuta.com/free-email                                                      |
