Bug#946601: linux-image-4.19.0-6-amd64: High load by kworker, shutdown or reboot hangs

Cross-posted to 2 groups.

Show all headers | View raw

Hi all,

I would like to add a detail:

I checked today: on shutdown, the system hangs for at least 3 hours with 
the message

     watchdog: watchdog0: watchdog did not stop!

This means: the machine did not reboot, I had to switch off the machine 
manually. I would therefore suggest to increase the severity.

I stored the complete dmesg output and can provide if wanted.

Cheers,
Olaf
