I didn't have this problem on Ubuntu 17.10 but i was still flooded with message about pci aer taking lots of disk space in the logs, but pci=noaer fixed this problem and i had no memory leak. The computer is a common laptop: HP Pavilion. --- Kernel log gets spammed with AERs so owner uses "pci=noaer"; that was briefly disabled to capture the AERs. Memory seems to be consumed (~6 GB of 8GB) just by leaving PC overnight booted just to console (systemd.unit=multi-user.target). The memory leak doesn't affect Windows but owner is going to check Windows Event Log for signs of AERs being logged. --- ## AERs (repeated several times per second) [ 34.978011] pcieport 0000:00:1d.0: device [8086:9d1b] error status/mask=00000001/00002000 [ 34.978013] pcieport 0000:00:1d.0: [ 0] Receiver Error (First) [ 34.978038] pcieport 0000:00:1d.0: AER: Corrected error received: 0000:00:1d.0 [ 34.978042] pcieport 0000:00:1d.0: PCIe Bus Error: severity=Corrected, type=Physical Layer, (Receiver ID) ## PCI device +-1d.0-[04]----00.0 Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
