[Bug 1174868] New: Upgrade to LEAP 15.2 makes Thinkpad 480s sometimes completely freezes, 20°C warmer and journal is trimmed
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1174868 Bug ID: 1174868 Summary: Upgrade to LEAP 15.2 makes Thinkpad 480s sometimes completely freezes, 20°C warmer and journal is trimmed Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 15.2 Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel Assignee: kernel-bugs@opensuse.org Reporter: markus.zimmermann@symflower.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- One of our machines here a Thinkpad T480s on openSUSE 15.2 kernel 5.3.18-lp152.33-default. In general this machine was upgraded from LEAP 15.1 to 15.2 and then the problems started to show. The CPU is constantly hotter while working. by 20°C. This machine now freezes sometimes completely. The machine is then - not pingable - no keyboard interaction works - lid close/open does nothng - no mouse interaction works - the notebook is really warm - When a freeze happens also a trim of the journal happens... e.g. we loose the whole journal for the day. - We SSH'ed into the machine and watched via "htop", "journal -f" and "sensors". WHen the machine freezes, there is no significant load via htop seeable, there are no interesting logs in journal and sensors shows that it is simply hotter. Interestingly, we upgraded another machine before (also a Thinkpad T480s) and this does not have any problems. We are btw on the latest firmwares using fwupdmgr. What should we try? How can we debug it? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

We installed the kernel from http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/openSUSE-15.1/standard/ on that machine. http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/openSUSE-15.1:/Update/stan... does not exist? Will test the kernel this week and will report on the end of the week how it went. Btw. we have another T480s with a fresh 15.2 (no upgrade) which had now 3 freezes in 2 weeks. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I will add "hwinfo" and "dmesg" outputs to this issue after this comment. We have now (on SUSE 15.2): - 1 Thinkpad T480s (with old and new Kernel) that freezes regularly (which i also cleaned, so there is no dust and the cooling-system looks good to me. this is btw the only notebook that has a higher temperature) - 1 Thinkpad T480s that freezes maybe every two days - 1 Thinkpad T480s that froze now once (since i reported this bug) - 2 Thinkpad T480s that never froze What bugs me the most is that "journal --since today" is cut off. Do you know why this could ever happen? Since downgrading to SUSE 15.1 is also not really an option (EOL is coming and we have to migrate at one point) I am as always willing to test anything because the alternative is to switch maybe to Tumbleweed or completely away. Can you pinpoint me to the "i915" issue or a repository that we should give a try? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

But the original machine has still freezes with the old SUSE 15.1 kernel and the newest 15.2 kernel. We are now testing http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/tiwai:/bsc1174737-leap2/stan... if that makes any difference. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

So this is definitely a kernel issue. How should we proceed with this issue? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

To verify it, please test the kernel in OBS Kernel:openSUSE-15.2 repo: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/openSUSE-15.2/standard/ This contains the build from the latest git branch. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

If it works one that one we will try on the others and i let you know. In case this works: how long does an update stay in http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/openSUSE-15.2/standard/ before it is regularly available?

Otherwise it's quite difficult to diagnose which part went wrong. You might be able to catch the crash via kdump, if we're lucky. But it's often not reliably working in such a case like the complete hardware freeze. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

FYI, we've had a report about T490 crash (also a hard one without trace), too, so it can't be excluded. But T490 has a totally different chip set, AFAIK, hence it's no wonder that the problem may hit only on T480. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I gave this issue another go because i moved from Tumbleweed to 15.2 because Tumbleweed suddnely started to have IO timeouts inside of VirtualBox VMs. So this broke my workflow completley, i couldn't work anymore. So i am now with everyone else on 15.2 which still has these freezes with the latest Kernel. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

However, i am wondering if this is due to using https://github.com/erpalma/throttled which is a default in our development environment since a long time. Otherwise we cannot use the full potential of our CPUs, which is just sad. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
