I have implemented the workaround from #7 (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99295#c22) using the attached patchfile on kernel 4.10.0-20.
My system crashed consistently when doing a resource heavy export job on a VirtualBox Windows 10 guest. First try after patching this no longer is the case. Steps taken to build and install the kernel: cd /working/directory apt build-dep linux-image-$(uname -r) apt source linux-image-$(uname -r) cd linux-4.10.0/ patch -p1 < /your/patchfile/location/patchfile debian/rules startnewrelease fakeroot debian/rules clean fakeroot debian/rules binary-headers binary-generic binary-perarch cd .. apt install $PWD/linux-[hit]*21.23*deb ** Patch added: "https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99295#c22"; https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1680904/+attachment/4869495/+files/i915_regression.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1680904 Title: zesty unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1680904/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
