https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77201 --- Comment #16 from Srivatsa S. Bhat <srivatsa@xxxxxxx> --- Hi, Here are a few more suggestions you can try: 1. Use either performance or powersave governor: echo performance > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor echo performance > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_governor (You can use either performance or powersave; you don't have to try both). The ondemand governor (which is usually the default) is complex and uses timers, workqueues etc and interacts with the cpufreq CPU hotplug code, whereas the above 2 governors are extremely simple and don't have any complex interactions with hotplug. So trying them would help isolate the problem and understand whether it is a cpufreq core issue or a cpufreq governor issue. 2. Enable lockdep debugging, specifically the config options mentioned below, so that we'll know if we have a locking issue: CONFIG_LOCKDEP_SUPPORT=y CONFIG_DEBUG_RT_MUTEXES=y CONFIG_DEBUG_PI_LIST=y CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK=y CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES=y CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=y CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP=y You can try the above 2 things along with the suggestions Viresh gave, in a single run, and let us know how it goes.
