Just want to note that I am experiencing this also, to near-disastrous results.
Symptoms: log spew seen in 'dmesg' quickly filling up logs in '/var/log'; top shows a 'dd' process pegging a CPU, running as root, which I believe is doing the writing. This has caused my system to lock up hard, and also take a couple of tries to reboot (that's pretty bad). No problems with this ever in the past. # dmesg | tail [ 2160.946120] CPU0: Temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled (total events = 1058701) [ 2160.946774] CPU0: Temperature/speed normal [ 2160.947276] CPU0: Temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled (total events = 1058702) [ 2160.948600] CPU0: Temperature/speed normal [ 2160.950248] CPU0: Temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled (total events = 1058704) [ 2160.950901] CPU0: Temperature/speed normal [ 2160.951451] CPU0: Temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled (total events = 1058705) [ 2160.952109] CPU0: Temperature/speed normal [ 2160.952716] CPU0: Temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled (total events = 1058706) [ 2160.953369] CPU0: Temperature/speed normal How did this garbage get into the kernel in the first place? -- /var/log fills up with "all normal" messages @ about 575/sec fill up the available space https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/453444 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
