How to reproduce

run STB002.202 or check dmesg logs

Expected behavior

Expected errors are:

• 'Bluetooth: hci0: Malformed MSFT vendor event: 0x02'
• 'Bluetooth: hci0: No support for _PRR ACPI method'
• 'iwlwifi 0000:00:14.3: WRT: Invalid buffer destination'
• 'iwlwifi 0000:00:14.3: Not valid error log pointer 0x0027B0C0 for RT uCode'
• "i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] ERROR GT1: GSC proxy component didn't bind within the expected timeout"
• 'i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] ERROR GT1: GSC proxy handler failed to init'
• 'proc_thermal_pci 0000:00:04.0: error: proc_thermal_add, will continue'

Actual behavior

Unexpected errors:

• "i8042: Can't read CTR while initializing i8042",
• 'i8042 i8042: probe with driver i8042 failed with error -5',
• 'iwlwifi 0000:00:14.3: Not valid error log pointer 0x0024B5C0 for RT uCode',
  • just a different address, might not be an issue
• 'igc 0000:2e:00.0 enp46s0: Timeout reading IGC_PTM_STAT register',
• 'igc 0000:2d:00.0 eno0: Timeout reading IGC_PTM_STAT register'

Patching together errors posted under different issues:

• i8042: Can't read CTR / probe failed with error -5
  • PS/2 controller not present; cosmetic, to get rid of this most likely PS2 support needs to be explicitly disabled in coreboot.
• iwlwifi: Not valid error log pointer
  • Wi-Fi firmware didn’t provide an error buffer; harmless if Wi-Fi works normally.
• igc: Timeout reading IGC_PTM_STAT register
  • PTM (Precision Time Measurement) not supported/enabled on the PCIe root; cosmetic unless PTM is required.
• spd5118: Failed to write / resume returns -6
  • SPD5118 (DDR5 SPD hub) not accessible during resume; cosmetic unless SPD monitoring is required.
• CPU topo / APIC: APIC enumeration order not spec compliant, APIC ID mismatch after S3
  • MADT/x2APIC IDs are inconsistent; worth fixing in firmware as it may cause subtle CPU affinity or S3 issues. This also occurs on V540TU.
