[Solved] Random shutdown

Hi.
From time to time, I get random shutdown (instant and seemingly unclean).
For a long time, I thought it might be a hardware issue, because it seemed to happen soon after I plugged the laptop, but it started to happen at some other times today, so I decided to look in journalctl to see what's going on.
Here's the log around the time it shut down:

mai 26 19:35:32 bouanto-laptop wpa_supplicant[481]: wlp3s0: Reject scan trigger since one is already pending
mai 26 19:36:08 bouanto-laptop wpa_supplicant[481]: wlp3s0: Reject scan trigger since one is already pending
mai 26 19:36:43 bouanto-laptop wpa_supplicant[481]: wlp3s0: Reject scan trigger since one is already pending
mai 26 19:37:19 bouanto-laptop wpa_supplicant[481]: wlp3s0: Reject scan trigger since one is already pending
-- Reboot --
mai 26 19:38:18 bouanto-laptop kernel: Linux version 5.1.4-arch1-1-ARCH (builduser@heftig-28985) (gcc version 8.3.0 (GCC)) #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed May 22 08:06:56 UTC 2019
mai 26 19:38:18 bouanto-laptop kernel: Command line: root=PARTUUID=2ca17c2f-4cd6-2747-ad05-50457f769906 rw initrd=\initramfs-linux.img

I'm not sure if it's normal to see `Reboot` because it did not reboot: it just shut down and I restarted it manually.

Do you have an idea of what could cause this shut down?

Thanks.

Re: [Solved] Random shutdown

My issue seemed to have been that when I setup efistub, I forgot to load the intel microcode.
