That was not the cause.
Now when it happens I have only three tasks running at 100% (same ones
as reported earlier).
Everything else, kerneloops, shutdown via power switch, etc, is as before.
Could you repost to the list with more info? I think you're saying that after
removing sadc you still are 100% CPU with
kworker/6:1+events_freezable
dmesg
systemd-journal
That is correct. The "6:1" in the kworker case varies.
running full tilt. THis probably means that it's the kernel worker threads are
doing something that causes lots of errors, and all the other processes
(including sadc that is now gone) are just busy writing those errors.
So, what is kernel doing? what does your system log say? type 'dmesg' or
'journalctl -e' and look at the end of the data.
The following repeats at the end of journalctl:
In the last second of the journal there are 14688 individual entries.

Also, the perf toolkit might help as explained in
https://askubuntu.com/questions/33640/kworker-what-is-it-and-why-is-it-hogging-so-much-cpu
1. Install perf:
sudo apt-get install linux-tools-common linux-tools-3.11.0-15-generic
(The second package must match your kernel version. You can first install just
linux-tools-common and call perf to let it tell you which package it needs.)
2. Record some 10 seconds of backtraces on all your CPUs:
sudo perf record -g -a sleep 10
3. Analyse your recording:
sudo perf report
I'll give this a try
thanks
I did it but I should have remembered earlier:
When this happens all sudo prefaced terminal input just locks up and never
(apparently) executes.
Maybe there is a clue here?
