This bug is awaiting verification that the linux- hwe-5.4/5.4.0-107.121~18.04.1 kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-bionic' to 'verification-done-bionic'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-bionic' to 'verification-failed-bionic'.
If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

Many zombie processes slow down system. After checkbox cpu stress test, it takes more then 2min to ssh in. [Test Plan] 1) stress-ng --aggressive --verify --timeout 300 --metrics-brief --tz --times --af-alg 0 2) ps aux | grep hisi_qm | wc -l Expected result is less then 100 [Regression Risk] hisi_qm only affects kunpeng920 platform. Minimal risk for other platform, and full regression test is needed on kunpeng920. ======================= [Bug Description] With focal 5.4 kernel, crypto driver does not clean up its created process when calculation is done. Many zombie processes slow down system. e.g. Takes more then 10sec for ssh connection. [Steps to Reproduce] 1) Install Ubuntu 20.04 with GA (5.4) kernel 2) sudo apt install -y stress-ng 3) stress-ng --aggressive --verify --timeout 300 --metrics-brief --tz --times --af-alg 0 4) ps aux | grep hisi_qm | wc -l [Actual Results] >100000 [Expected Results] <100 [Reproducibility] 100% [Additional information] Can not reproduce with focal HWE (5.8) kernel.
