[Bug 1574612] Re: Random hangs

 

Serrie, the next step is to fully reverse commit bisect from kernel 4.2
to 4.6-rc6 in order to identify the last bad commit, followed
immediately by the first good one. Once this good commit has been
identified, it may be reviewed for backporting. Could you please do this
following
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBisection#How_do_I_reverse_bisect_the_upstream_kernel.3F
?

Please note, finding adjacent kernel versions is not fully commit
bisecting.

After the fix commit (not kernel version) has been identified, then
please mark this report Status Confirmed.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  Random hangs

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  System hangs randomly. This mostly occurs anywhere between 15 minutes
  and a few hours after boot. Couldn't figure out the trigger. Happened
  while viewing YouTube, using Spotify switching to Eclipse etc. SSH
  still works, so I can get to the machine if the lockup occurs. That's
  how I submitted the bug. All screens freeze though, while audio keeps
  on working (like music from Spotify or sound from a YouTube video).
  The only thing that seems to keep working UI-wise is the mouse
  pointer.

  Had memtest running for half an hour without problems.

  The issue occurs multiple times a day. Issue doesn't seem to be
  triggered if I remove linux-image-4.2.0-35-generic and go back to
  linux-image-4.2.0-16-generic. Did use the linux-image-4.2.0-16-generic
  kernel for a few days without issues.

  The kern.log contains some stacktraces with the method being
  'schedule'. This is around the time the hang occurs.

  See extra debug information for more info.
