I can't trigger that on mustang/merlin. And looks the kernel won't crash too when I run one 4.2 upstream kernel. But on wily, stress-ng often causes itself translation fault, see the report below: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/stress-ng/+bug/1495761 Thanks, > > -- > You received this bug notification because you are subscribed to linux > in Ubuntu. > https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1469859 > > Title: > HP ProLiant m400: NULL pointer dereference PC is at > ctx_sched_in+0xdc/0x30c > > Status in linux package in Ubuntu: > Incomplete > > Bug description: > [Impact] > A heavily loaded system can lead to a kernel crash. > > [Test Case] > while :; do stress-ng --all 64 -t 600 -v; done > > To manage notifications about this bug go to: > https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1469859/+subscriptions -- 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/1469859 Title: HP ProLiant m400: NULL pointer dereference PC is at ctx_sched_in+0xdc/0x30c Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: [Impact] A heavily loaded system can lead to a kernel crash.
