After upgrading to 4.4.0-45 we have started to experience random kernel lockups. I have attached a sample from the syslog which I managed to catch after one of these events. In other cases, nothing was written to the syslog. I notice that the cgroup system features here and there in the log, and the hanging server uses cgroups and namespaces heavily, so I suspect it is related. Sadly I don't know enough of the kernel to decipher the error I got further than that. Another unusual thing we do on this server, which may possibly be related, is that we regularly clear the caches ("echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches") /Pehr ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: linux-image-4.4.0-45-generic 4.4.0-45.66 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-45.66-generic 4.4.21 Uname: Linux 4.4.0-45-generic x86_64 AlsaDevices: total 0 crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 1 Oct 22 22:52 seq crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 33 Oct 22 22:52 timer AplayDevices: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'aplay' ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.1 Architecture: amd64 ArecordDevices: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'arecord' AudioDevicesInUse: Error: command ['fuser', '-v', '/dev/snd/seq', '/dev/snd/timer'] failed with exit code 1: Date: Sat Oct 22 23:37:59 2016 HibernationDevice: RESUME=/dev/mapper/template--16--vg-swap_1 InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-04-22 (183 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-Server 16.04 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Release amd64 (20160420.3) IwConfig: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'iwconfig' Lsusb: Error: command ['lsusb'] failed with exit code 1: MachineType: VMware, Inc.
