(that what udevadm monitor seems to show, looping from bind to unbind for the device) I suspect a0085f2510e8976614ad8f766b209448b385492f introduced a regression (i have not tried to revert it yet). Please not that there also seem to be a bug in hid2hci.c from bluez l148 : if (err == 0) { err = -1; errno = EALREADY; } Correcting this and recompile bluez desn't solve the issue as cpu usage remains very high. Using a 4.13 kernel result in a normal CPU usage, this seems a regression in 4.14.

My workarounds- Soon after booting, stopping and starting systed-udev eliminates all bind and unbind problems and response drastically improves. I used the following commands in sequence- sudo systemctl stop systemd-udevd systemd-udevd-kernel.socket systemd- udevd-control.socket sudo systemctl start systemd-udevd systemd-udevd-kernel.socket systemd- udevd-control.socket My understanding- Before all hardware is discovered properly, bind/unbind start executing when no procedures are available and does not get reinitialized. After stopping and starting, it gets all the procedures in place. Probably, it is booting sequence problem.

I see lots of posts on other forums (Unbuntu etc) going back over a year or more blaming touchpads or nvidia or WiFi. Some even say they can't use their thumb drive if it isn't plugged in when they boot. The problem also mimics a defective thumb drive where you plug it in and Ubuntu doesn't see it (because systemd-udevd doesn't have the cycles to process the newly plugged in USB device). Losing one core makes my machine slower but not too noticeably so. I do see much longer boot times and sometime it will hang entirely during boot. I assume a single core or dual core machine will be drastically slowed down or even unusable. When I search I find other non-ubuntu os's complaining about similar problems. I have 18.10 running on my Dell studio XPS with an AMD® Phenom(tm) ii x4 945 processor × 4 and AMD® Juniper graphics. It's a quad-core 64 bit machine. I have wireless mouse and keyboard for Logitech. I have a pretty vanilla set-up. I DO NOT have a touchpad or nvidia or WiFi! I can verify that the problem can be managed by stopping and starting systemd-udevd. I used the following commands, suggested in this bug report, in sequence in the terminal which corrects the problem until I boot again. sudo systemctl stop systemd-udevd systemd-udevd-kernel.socket systemd- udevd-control.socket sudo systemctl start systemd-udevd systemd-udevd-kernel.socket systemd- udevd-control.socket Also the problem will "sometimes" re-appear by plugging in a thumb drive! This is a serious kernel problem and can manifest its presence in a number of ways depending on your hardware configuration. This is a very very very annoying problem will someone PLEASE fix it soon! ...did I mention that this is a serious problem impacting many people!

I was installing Ubuntu software updates when they became available during that time. There is something going on during boot that causes this problem. "my speculation" is that I suspect a timing issue with the way things are initialized during boot up that leads to the problem. Some strange timing issue is occurring which causes systemd-udevd to fall into an infinite loop (continuously looking for something or to be notified about an action completion) and drive one of the processor cores to 100%. When a new kernel was installed or something was done to change initialization activity during boot the problem went away because the timing problem that created it was changed. I believe that some kind of race condition may be at the root of the problem. >From my earlier search on the problem symptoms, it seems that when systemd-udevd isn't working correctly you can get numerous confusing symptoms that mysteriously go away when the something changes timing conditions during boot. Since the problem is in the kernel then it effects other systems besides Ubuntu.
