Plugging in AC power supply freezes the system, it is being discussed upstream here:

This is readily reproducible on my system.

I can confirm this behavior on my T420.

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51661

I submitted that bug two days ago along with an email to the arch-general list.

i was hitted by the bug, I did not use laptop-mode-tools (however, tried to install and disable them:)

the bug persists here, even when applying the proposed patch in https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/14/65

however on my system /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog dosen't exists.

A fix has been merged upstream: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=commit;h=3935e89505a1c3ab3f3b0c7ef0eae54124f48905
Adding this patch and rebuilding the package fixes the issue for me.

the commit is the same one as the proposed patch in https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/14/65

so no fix for me :)

i am not able to post new comment, so edit this one

i doubt that the bug had something with cpuidle ...
so tried:
intel_idle.max_cstate=0 processor.max_cstate=0 idle=poll
and now i am able to unplug and plug the ac power :)

july: Could you bisect your kernel for us, please? I'm curious as to which commit was the offending one for you, and the more information we have, the more likely that this bug can be fixed.
