Hi Rafael, For starters, the server Chris mentioned above didn't panic because the kernel.softlockup_panic wasn't set to 1 on reboot. This is now fixed.
Then, we're still running 3.19 (all the nodes got rebooted to 3.19.0-33-generic). Let me know if you wish us to get back to 3.13. I verified that all the firmwares were the most recent ones, and they were. I rebooted all the nodes with the proper x2apic kernel options. I also disabled all C-States, and also set everything relevant to "performance". You can see the changes here : http://paste.ubuntu.com/13312776/ (this paste is showing all possible settings in G7 and Gen8, I of course could only apply the settings that existed on each infrastructure). Unfortunately, even with all this, we had a G7 that panic'ed and crashdump'ed about ~1h after I set it back in the compute pool. You will find the apport and crashdump below. Let me know what are the next steps. Thanks ! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1505564 Title: Soft lockup with "block nbdX: Attempted send on closed socket" spam Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: Hi, Some of our nova compute hosts regularly freeze, sometimes for a few hours, with kern.log getting spammed with : block nbdX: Attempted send on closed socket and a few "CPU soft lockup" messages (see attached log). This clears up when the queue gets cleared, eg : block nbdX: queue cleared trusty hosts with kernel version 3.19.0-30-generic. Note that timestamps from kern.log appears to be wrong, it looks like the messages are being held, and then all delivered at once when the kernel unfreezes. Attaching apport files from 2 hosts below. --- AlsaDevices: total 0 crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 1 Oct 9 13:14 seq crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 33 Oct 9 13:14 timer AplayDevices: Error: [Errno 2] No
