Here's a test kernel based on "4.2.0-36.42~14.04.1" including the upstream commit "fb53c439 - hpsa: move lockup_detected attribute to host attr".
Please test and provide feedbacks. Instructions: # Pre-installation $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:slashd/bug1581169 $ sudo apt-get update # Installation $ sudo apt-get install linux-image-4.2.0-36-generic=4.2.0-36.42~14.04.1hf98078v20160516b1 -y $ sudo apt-get install linux-image-extra-4.2.0-36-generic=4.2.0-36.42~14.04.1hf98078v20160516b1 -y $ sudo apt-get install linux-headers-4.2.0-36-generic=4.2.0-36.42~14.04.1hf98078v20160516b1 -y # Reboot $ sudo reboot Eric -- 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/1581169 Title: kernel panic (General protection fault) on module hpsa (lockup_detected) Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in linux source package in Wily: Triaged Bug description: it has been brought to my attention the following: Kernel version: 4.2.0-30-generic #36~14.04.1-Ubuntu When running an sosreport on HP DL380 gen8 machines running this kernel (Ubuntu 14.04.4 using linux-generic-lts-wily), which includes hpsa 3.4.10-0, hspa causes a kernel panic when sosreport is scanning block devices. These are machines with an onboard p420i and daughtercard p420 RAID controller, with each drive in a single raid0 configuration. (unideal, but the machines do not boot when the card is in HBA mode). This panic does not happen on kernel 3.13 with hpsa 3.4.1-0 when using sosreport. The funny thing is kernel 4.2 / 3.4.10-0 still is a more stable solution - I have yet to see a prior issue in which the p420 would lock up on this version. One issue wit h this is HP 99% of the time will require an sosreport when we raise any hardware issues. I can no longer produce that on kernel 4.2 machines because they kernel panic. I can reproduce this consistently with several other machines in our environment. - please let me know if you would like more info.
