** Description changed:
I have a Ryzen 1700X on a MSI B350 Motherboard and 64 Gb of RAM (Corsair
LPX 2400). If I do a very intensive multi-threaded compilation session
sometimes I get a segfault. This seems to be a problem with Ryzen it
self nad maybe it is related to the bug described in bug #1690085 but I
believe it is not the same. This bug affects many Linux users with
Ryzen, see for example this thread in the AMD forum:
https://community.amd.com/thread/215773?start=0=0 or the Gentoo
Wiki that talks about this problem in the Troubleshoting section of
their Ryzen page: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Ryzen#Troubleshooting
It is also very easy to verify if you have a processor with the problem.
Fortunately some smart people have created a simple script that always
shows the problem in my system and in the systems of the other people of
the thread. The script can be found in
https://github.com/suaefar/ryzen-test
You just have to clone the repository using git, move to the ryzen-test
directory and run ./kill_ryzen.sh. It is a very simple script, it
downloads gcc-7.1 source code into a vram disk and start #processors
simultaneous compilation of it. If any compilation fails it writes a
message in the console saying how long it took to get the failure. After
a few minutes, the build in my system fails unless I turn off SMT. With
SMT off it can take many hours, but still fails in less than one day.
- I am opening this bug report because I believe we should try to verify
- if this is a widespread problem and inform potential users of the
- problems. Hopefully AMD or the Kernel developers can find a workaround.
- I have also already opened a bug report in the Linux Kernel Bugzilla
- (https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=196481), but unfortunately
- it is not calling the attention of the kernel developers.
