This problem made my system mostly unuseable since upgreading to zesty (4.10.0-19). One crash every 1-4 Hours. Some workloads tend to trigger it faster (firefox + youtube) but the crash is unavoidable. Desktop usage becomes completely impossible. Normally i can sill ssh in, but only certain things work: - top works fine, I always see one kernel thread hogging cpu. Sometimes additionally a userspace process (mostly firefox). htop hangs on exit. - kill -9 on cpu hogging userspace process does not work - this seems weird - trying to reboot gracefully hangs. SysRq works.
I just switched to 4.11-rc7 mainline, but its too soon to make any conclusions. I will report tomorrow. Looking through the clones of this bug this seems to happen with quite different hardware. My affected system is AMD x370 chipset with RyZen 7 1700X cpu. The system was perfectly stable with yakkety (kernel 4.8.0-??) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1674838 Title: kernel BUG at /build/linux- 7LGLH_/linux-4.10.0/include/linux/swapops.h:129 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1674838/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
