Public bug reported:
Running I/O heavy operation (cp) inside terminal in X server session
will lock up entire system while running it in a TTY works fine.
I am filing this as a kernel bug because the following steps will still
hang the system:
1. Open up gnome-terminal
2. Start copying a really large file between two different EXT4 partitions on
my local SSD with a "cp" command
3. Switch to a TTY
4. Login to TTY and observe htop or iotop
Expected result: I can see the operation happen and after a while it
completes
Actual result: Keyboard drops out some time during operation (TTY stops
responding, caps lock light no longer responds to pressing caps lock,
computer appears effectively dead with last screen image frozen)
When I run the "cp" operation on the TTY to start with, no matter if the X
session is running in parallel or not, it works as expected with no trouble.
