Ran apport. Note that while during that apport run the kernel was marked as tainted because of the proprietary NVIDIA driver, the bug also replicates without that driver loaded in an untainted kernel. The dmesg logs I posted earlier are of that state.

The machine remains responsive and I can write to other disks, but if I run "sync", it hangs forever. The bug is 100 % repeatable. To replicate, run: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/nvme0n1p1 This happens only when I write more than 0.5-1.5 GiB to a GPT partition on the NVM device. The bug does not happen in the following cases: - writing just 500 MB on a GPT partition - writing to the raw device (/dev/nvme0n1) - writing to a DOS partition (i.e. when the NVM device is using a DOS style partition table) The device in question is a 1 TB Samsung 960 EVO M.2 SSD. Ubuntu release: 17.04 I have dmesg logs available of four instances of this happening, with very similar stack traces. I will be happy to experiment and provide any additional information you may need. --- ApportVersion: 2.20.4-0ubuntu4.1 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC1: jl 1792 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC0: jl 1792 F.... pulseaudio CurrentDesktop: Unity:Unity7 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 17.04 IwConfig: lo no wireless extensions. enp0s31f6 no wireless extensions.
