[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1852001] Re: Xorg freeze on high disk or cpu load or random

2019-11-24 Thread JPT
mouse lag. almost unusable

- kernel 5.4.0-050400rc6-generic
- medium load network traffic (20MB/s) and accompaning disk traffic
- swap available
- xserver-xorg-video-intel installed

again, disabling swap solved the problem.

this sucks because I hoped with the release of an official ubuntu 5.4
kernel the problem might disappear.

2019-11-23 Thread JPT
Occurs after a few seconds with this setting: 
- Kernel 5.3.10-050310-generic
- swap available
- moving a 10 GB partition with gparted (high disk load on a USB attached SSD)
- xserver-xorg-video-intel installed

disabling swap solved the problem.

also the mouse hangs when window animations are active.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1852001] Re: Xorg freeze on high disk or cpu load or random

2019-11-10 Thread JPT
I exactly once got a GPU HANG. Wasn't able to fetch the logs though and
did not get one again:

14:11:58 i915 :00:02.0: GPU HANG: ecode 9:0:0x, hang on rcs0
14:11:58 GPU hangs can indicate a bug anywhere in the entire gfx stack, 
including userspace.
14:11:58 Please file a _new_ bug report on bugs.freedesktop.org against DRI -> 
DRM/Intel
14:11:58 drm/i915 developers can then reassign to the right component if it's 
not a kernel issue.
14:11:58 The gpu crash dump is required to analyze gpu hangs, so please always 
attach it.
14:11:58 GPU crash dump saved to /sys/class/drm/card0/error
14:11:58 i915 :00:02.0: Resetting rcs0 for hang on rcs0

and this problem happens regardless if xserver-xorg-video-intel is installed or 
not. 
but maybe the GPU hang log occurs only if the Intel driver is installed?

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1852001] [NEW] Xorg freeze on high disk or cpu load or random

2019-11-10 Thread JPT
Public bug reported:

I've got massive problems with GUI on my PC.

The attached logs are from the following setting: 
- high disk load (f3write)
- kernel 4.15.0-1050-oem (the only 4x kernel available in eoan)
- no swap available

These are the parameters (disk load, kernel, swap) I am fiddling with to
find out the cause, see below.

In general 
- the problem happens once a day with any 5.0 or 5.3 kernel from eoan repo
- more likely to happen with high disk or CPU load, but not necessarily.
- less likely with the 4.x kernel mentioned above. 

I just installed the following kernels from kernel-ppa:
5.3.10-050310-generic 
5.4.0-050400rc6-generic
5.4.0-997-generic (drm-intel-next)
Now I am waiting for the freeze to occur again. 

The problem started about half a year ago. 
There have been three changes that happened at the time and could be the cause
- switch to kernel 5.x
- update to Ubuntu 19.4
- swapped motherboard, CPU and RAM. 

The hassle started with the following scenario, repeated often: 
- high disk load
- PC becomes laggy
- soon dies/freezes

The longer I waited, the deeper the lockdown went. but I don't know the exact 
details. 
The first cause I found was kswapd running amok and take the system with it. 
Workaround: add swap space. 

Now the problem shifted: Whenever I got high disk load (eg dd 100 GB of
data) the kernel swaps likle crazy and makes the GUI first lag soon
freeze. but no excessive CPU load any more, as kswapd does not go crazy.

Again I found a workaround: 
the above mentioned 4.x kernel. In this case the GUI lags as expected from a 
heavily swapping system. nothing more. 
but still sometimes the GUI simply freezes (the error reported at the top)

Another workaround is to completely remove swap. Let's see what happens,
if kswapd goes amok again.

I am not sure as how these problems are related.

I did extensive hardware check like
- memtest86 newest version, no "may be vulnerable to high frequency row 
hammering"
- smart

do you suggest any burn in test suites?

thanks
