Subject: Re: Bug#932250: linux-image-amd64: random segfaults without 
taking something down

It shouldnt be overheating, because i have custom setting on cpu heatsink
fan and the ram module has a own heatsink. Plus i have fan on case which
puls out the excees heat. The segfaults happend at low load, maybe it wasnt
above P2 power state. Also i have made sure that the cpu doenst exceed 90°C.

Out of tree modules are from virtual box.

After disabling overcommit and apparmor i didnt experience a segfault for
now. The segfaults started to dissapeer it seams.

I fear that this might be a bug tied to certain order of instructions. For
example if i enable debug it may change order of instruction and the bug
doesnt occur.
Reason that i reported this bug with package linux-image-amd64 is that i
didnt know about the existence of linux-mage-4.19.0-5-amd64 and i tried to
prevent creating bug file for nonexisting package. Should i file another
bug and put a link to this report ?

Any sufficiently advanced bug is indistinguishable from a feature.
