Srijan Kumar Sharma, this report is only scoped to disk performance with AMD Carrizo FCH Controller (not keyboard, wifi, booting, or any other problem). Hence, it will help immensely if you filed a new report with the Ubuntu repository kernel (not mainline/upstream) via a terminal: ubuntu-bug lin

Srijan Kumar Sharma, to be honest I thought about making separate bug reports but I think maybe Linux kernel is sponsored by Intel or something.

Hi, My Model is 15-ab125ax I Would like to report that I have same problem as OP (Disk speed, keyboard, AMDGPU-Pro) and problem with wifi. Ubuntu 16.10 does not boot ("AMD-Vi: Completion loop timed out" followed by kernel panic). I had a lot of phone and email conversations with HP support and it

Did this issue start happening after an update/upgrade? Was there a prior kernel version where you were not having this particular problem? Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v4.8 kernel[0

The 4.8 kernels do not boot at all. I had very strange results. First it gave errors about soft lockup. But the hardware is perfectly fine, I am running windows and xenial (albeit slow) with no crashes or errors. Also ran memtest and everything was fine. The generic 4.8 is somewhat trying to boot

Evren Yurtesen, to keep this relevant to upstream, one would want to test the latest mainline kernel (now 4.8-rc4) as it is released. Could you please advise? ** Tags removed: bios-outdated-f.19 ** Tags added: latest-bios-f.19 ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete

Amazingly the RC4 kernels booted! I tried both low latency and generic and problem is still there. It may be unrelated but I think it is worth mentioning never the less. I have problems with keyboard skipping keypresses (Eg. forgets that I keep my finger on CTRL key, does C instead of CTRL-C etc.)
