Getting seemingly random crashes no matter the WM.

Hey.

Been troubleshooting this issue of mine for the past couple of weeks. Sometimes my PC just locks up (cursor stutters and then stops moving) and crashes right afterwards. Screen goes black (out of signal) but the computer stays on. The only way to get it up and running again is to hold the power button and boot it again. This started happening a couple weeks back.

Here's some general info:
GPU: AMD Radeon RX 570 Pulse 4GB
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600X
MOBO: B450M PRO-VDH MAX
RAM: 16 Gigs of DDR4

DM: None
WM: DWM

Here's a log from the previous boot when it crashed:
http://0x0.st/KHCk.txt
I'm 99% sure the last bit is where the crash has happened.

Thank you for your help.

Re: Getting seemingly random crashes no matter the WM.

Have you installed the amd-ucode package and ensured the µcode is loaded? Your revision number looks old to me but I might be wrong. I think those 2nd generation Ryzens do need the fixes.

Otherwise check your memory health.

EDIT: those PCIe bus errors at the end of the journal lead me to https://forums.unraid.net/topic/90337-s … or-in-log/, which was fixed by updating the firmware ("BIOS").

Re: Getting seemingly random crashes no matter the WM.

Sorry for the late response. I have amd-ucode installed, will look into the bios part. I thought the issue magically fixed itself but today I got a proper coredump out of a crash. After stuttering, it brought me back to a tty and typing, navigating in 'less' was VERY stuttery.

coredumpctl info $pid:

journalctl -b -1:

Edit:
Checked that the microcode is being loaded early (journalctl -k --grep='microcode:'):

There're ~10.000 line of that in the journal, starting ~13 minutes into the boot out of pretty much nowhere.

Won't fix your issues but did you try Sysrq REISUB?
Cycling the power should always be last resort...

Re: Getting seemingly random crashes no matter the WM.

The journal are only 3 minutes, are the link layer errors now gone?
What's the situation on the original problem?

Re: Getting seemingly random crashes no matter the WM.

Will give Sysrq a look, thanks.

Yes the link layer errors are gone. As for the original problem, I'm not sure because it often happens out of the blue, or just when I start my system. There can be days in between of crashes.

Re: Getting seemingly random crashes no matter the WM.

Ok, look out for them - I'd not be overly surprise if this hinges on the bus errors, maybe check "lspci -tvnn" to see what's behind the noisy bus…
