Hmm, it sounds like this bug is only happening in Ubuntu kernels and not any of the upstream kernels. That indicates this is due to a SAUCE patch. We next need to identify the last Ubuntu kernel version that did not have the bug and the first that did.
Can those affected test the following early Zesty kernel: https://launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel-team/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+build/12001523 Note with this test kernel, you need to install both the linux-image and linux-image-extra .deb packages. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium => High ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Joseph Salisbury (jsalisbury) ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Zesty) Importance: High Assignee: Joseph Salisbury (jsalisbury) Status: Confirmed ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Zesty) Status: Confirmed => In Progress ** Tags removed: needs-reverse-bisect ** Tags added: performing-bisect -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1674838 Title: kernel BUG at /build/linux- 7LGLH_/linux-4.10.0/include/linux/swapops.h:129 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in linux source package in Zesty: In Progress Bug description: Randomly, khugepaged process will take 100% CPU, and I can only restart the computer to recover it.
