Daniel, can you please attach output of `grep . /sys/class/dmi/id/*`? -- 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/1799235
Title: kworker process starts at 85% of cpu and stays there Status in Dell Sputnik: New Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Ubuntu starts, w/ /sbin/init, a kworker process that never stops running below 85%: pb@pb-tower:~/Downloads$ ps -elf F S UID PID PPID C PRI NI ADDR SZ WCHAN STIME TTY TIME CMD 4 S root 1 0 0 80 0 - 56471 - 18:30 ? 00:00:01 /sbin/init splash 1 S root 2 0 0 80 0 - 0 - 18:30 ? 00:00:00 [kthreadd] 1 R root 85 2 63 80 0 - 0 - 18:30 ? 00:03:03 [kworker/0:1+kac] After a few hours, grep . -r /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/ shows tens of millions of interrupts. The following command line stops the kworker process: echo "disable" > /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe6F On the other hand, I haven't been able to properly shut down my system after this command (power never goes off except manually). I believe the bug is related to the one discussed here: https://superuser.com/questions/1117992/acpi-exception-ae-not-found- while-evaluating-gpe-method-floods-syslog The dmesg w/ this report may be somewhat confusing because there is an unsigned module. But w/ the module removed, dmesg gives the following: [ 0.097480] ACPI: Dynamic OEM Table Load: [ 0.097480] ACPI: SSDT 0xFFFFA07F57173000 000317 (v02 PmRef ApHwp 00003000 INTL 20160527) [ 0.097480] ACPI: Executed 1 blocks of module-level executable AML code [ 0.100180] ACPI: Dynamic OEM Table Load: [ 0.100186] ACPI: SSDT 0xFFFFA07F577EF400 00030A (v02 PmRef ApCst 00003000 INTL 20160527) [ 0.100473] ACPI: Executed 1 blocks of module-level executable AML code [ 0.102187] ACPI: Interpreter enabled [ 0.102222] ACPI: (supports S0 S3 S4 S5) [ 0.102223] ACPI: Using IOAPIC for interrupt routing [ 0.102275] HEST: Table parsing has been initialized.
