System freeze under high load (gaming)

Paranoid_Android1 · 2024-03-15 00:09:54

Hi, for quite a while now I've had full system freezes mainly when gaming.
The only way for me to resolve them is to reboot as nothing else is possible usually.
This happened to me for example while playing: Dota 2, American Truck Simulator and Xcom2.
In the times I was able to get a tty working I could see that the load got quite high (around 30).
It for some reason did not happen at all playing other games. It also never happened to me in my Windows partition.

I checked my ram using memtest. I updated my bios and I tried to change some bios settings.
I've had different kernel and nvidia driver versions throughout these times.

Mar 14 01:24:16 arch-desktop lightdm[1054]: Error updating user /org/freedesktop/Accounts/User1000: Timeout was reached

That time I had spotify open so maybe that was the reason.
I assume that the Pulseaudio and Network errors are more symptoms rather than the source.

I appreciate any help as I'm rather lost on how to debug this further.

seth · 2024-03-15 15:39:06

The only way for me to resolve them is to reboot as nothing else is possible usually.

When you reboot w/ the power button the tail of the journal is lost - do the timestamps in those journal segments at least somewhat align with the incidents?
The second one stops 45s after you started to switch VTs (is that an indication of the freeze and attempt tp deal with it?)
Were those switches (visually) successful?
Can you ssh into the "frozen" system?

never happened to me in my Windows partition.

3rd link below. Mandatory.
Disable it (it's NOT the BIOS setting!) and reboot windows and linux twice for voodo reasons.

Hi Seth,

Thank you for your response.
I have added

rcu_nocbs=0-11 processor.max_cstate=5

to my grub file and generated a new config.
I already had

pci=nommconf

set there as I came across it in a thread researching my issue.
Sadly this did not resolve my issue.

In the logs above I was able to switch to a TTY and fix the issue without pressing the power button. The journal logs are just trimmed to only show the specific logs of the crashes. I was able to make my computer usable again by killing spotify and the game I had open after which the load slowly climbed down. For some reason I only see black in my Xorg session afterwards so I also restarted lightdm both times.

I have never tried to SSH into my computer when this happened as I don't generally have sshd running.

seth · 2024-03-15 23:45:47

So the freeze is purely graphical (and limited to the X11 session)?
Do you run picom next to awesome?
Tried to kill that?

wrt the spotify crash specifically, if this is somewhat frequent/reproducible, try to downgrade nvidia to the 545xx or 535xx dkms version (nvidia-utils has to follow the nvidia-dkms version) - there're known issues w/ the 550xx driver (though the backtraces look different)

Paranoid_Android1 · 2024-03-16 00:09:28

No it's not just graphical. Everything inside the TTY is very slow and the load of the system is high. Usually I can't get into a TTY at all.

I do run picom. I never tried to kill it as it never seemed suspicious to me so far. But I can try to run a game next without picom at all.

Why in regards to the spotify crash specifically?
I've only had nvidia 550 since this month so I don't think the new version is at fault. I've had this issue before too.

seth · 2024-03-16 21:53:48

Cause spotify crashes in the nvidia driver
If there's high system load, try to check top for the culprit, are you possibly running OOM and thrashing?
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Improv … conditions

Paranoid_Android1 · 2024-03-17 01:18:48

So I tried to start a game using KDE to see if awesome, picom, redshift or anything like it could be at fault but my computer crashed almost immediately too.

Here is an image of htop as I'm experiencing the issue:
https://ibb.co/RH5gb3c

The load is high but nothing is looking really suspicious to me. Same goes for the I/O tab.
There's not a lot of RAM left but I can see nothing regarding the OOM killer in my logs.

seth · 2024-03-17 08:17:46

ADD A SWAP FILE!
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Swap#Swap_file
(You can oc also use a partition, but the above doesn't require to repartition the disk)

Are you using zram or zswap or maybe even both?
(They'll show up in your system journal)

Paranoid_Android1 · 2024-03-29 18:47:41

alright so I added a 12GB swap file and doom still crashes but it's the app crashing and not my whole system freezing so I think this is a different topic.
The last 4 times I could not reproduce the freezes in xcom 2 except for once when I closed the game and then immediately opened firefox afterwards.
So it does seem like the swap file helps. I did not think that a modern workstation would benefit from swap and I thought that 8GB is enough for gaming.
It works fine in windows but my next step I think will be trying to buy 16gb of ram to see if this improves the stability.

seth · 2024-03-29 19:02:31

https://i.ibb.co/C0rw8bQ/PXL-20240314-001317628-2-1.jpg shows that you're completely OOM at that point (hence me shouting

Windows will automatically get you swapfile.sys, pagefile.sys and hiberfil.sys (former for swapping, last for hibernation) and of course it depends what processes you're running.

In case and please always remember to mark resolved threads by editing your initial posts subject - so others will know that there's no task left, but maybe a solution to find.
Thanks.
