A further update: This problem does NOT occur under Artful on the Dell PowerEdge T610 with the following kernel:
$ uname -a Linux hogplum 4.13.0-30-generic #33-Ubuntu SMP Mon Jan 15 19:45:48 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux I have not yet tested with Xenial or with other kernel series on the PowerEdge T710. -- 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/1743799 Title: "fwts uefirtmisc" causes reboot in recent kernels Status in Provider for Plainbox - Checkbox: Invalid Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: In doing Meltdown regression testing, we found that one server, lucuma, a Dell PowerEdge T710, would spontaneously reboot when running the miscellanea/fwts_test under Ubuntu 14.04.5 with a 3.13.0-139-generic #188-Ubuntu kernel. This test has been dropped from our test list for 16.04, so it was not initially tested under more recent kernels. This server has been out of our testing queue for years, so it hasn't been tested since Ubuntu 10.04. Thus, we don't yet know if the problem is a regression or if it's existed for a long time. We need to do more testing to better isolate the issue; stay tuned for more information....
