Steps to solution: 1.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1503655] Re: Kernel bug in eventpoll_release_file+0x46/0xa0 with 3.13.0-66.107
in reply to #13: I am running Trusty on a no-name desktop. This morning kernel 3.13.0-66-generic appeared on the list of updates. I have *not* activated any "proposed" or non-standard repository. As I am a fair-to-middling level user I managed to boot to a previous version of the kernel, and removed the faulty version. Checking a few hours later 3.13.0-66-generic no longer appears as an update. Hopefully it has been recalled until a fix is made available. -- 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/1503655 Title: Kernel bug in eventpoll_release_file+0x46/0xa0 with 3.13.0-66.107 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in linux-lts-utopic package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in linux source package in Trusty: Fix Committed Status in linux-lts-utopic source package in Trusty: Fix Committed Status in linux source package in Vivid: Fix Committed Status in linux-lts-utopic source package in Vivid: Invalid Status in linux source package in Wily: Confirmed Status in linux-lts-utopic source package in Wily: Invalid Bug description: With the latest kernel in trusty-proposed I seem to get panics on my X230 laptop: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at fff8 IP: [] eventpoll_release_file+0x46/0xa0 PGD 1c11067 PUD 1c13067 PMD 0 Oops: [#1] SMP Modules linked in: snd_hrtimer ip6table_filter ip6_tables ebtable_nat ebt CPU: 1 PID: 1939 Comm: pulseaudio Not tainted 3.13.0-66-generic #107-Ubun Hardware name: LENOVO 2324CTO/2324CTO, BIOS G2ET94WW (2.54 ) 04/30/2013 task: 8800c2068000 ti: 8800c4826000 task.ti: 8800c4826000 RIP: 0010:[] [] eventpoll_release_fi RSP: 0018:8800c4827e78 EFLAGS: 00010286 RAX: RBX: ffb7 RCX: 000f RDX: 0100 RSI: RDI: 81c72e80 RBP: 8800c4827ea0 R08: R09: 0004 R10: 880210471e61 R11: 0206 R12: ffa8 R13: 880210471e61 R14: 8800c4bc6c00 R15: 8800c4acc8f0 FS: 7f3dbedd6740() GS:88021e24() knlGS:0 CS: 0010 DS: ES: CR0: 80050033 CR2: fff8 CR3: ce1da000 CR4: 001407e0 Stack: 8800c4acc840 0008 880210471e61 8800c4bc6c00 8800c4afdc00 8800c4827ee8 811c00aa 8800c2068000 81ebb680 8800c2068620 Call Trace: [] __fput+0x24a/0x260 [] fput+0xe/0x10 [] task_work_run+0xa7/0xe0 [] do_notify_resume+0x97/0xb0 [] int_signal+0x12/0x17 Code: 00 41 56 41 55 41 54 53 e8 68 37 52 00 49 8b 07 48 8b 08 49 39 c7 4 RIP [] eventpoll_release_file+0x46/0xa0 RSP CR2: fff8 ---[ end trace f2ee3b43ddaf4bd4 ]--- To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1503655/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
