Comment # 5
on bug 107432
from Robert Strube
So I've been conducting lots of additional investigation with both the vanilla kernel (4.18-rc7) and the kernel with your patch. I took more time to try to recreate the scenarios that cause the crash (monitoring system resources, etc.) and this is when I realized that my swapfile was very small (only 2GB). Short story - Upon further investigation I don't believe this is a bug with DRM/amdgpu but rather the crash was caused because I simply ran out of memory *and* swapspace combined. I feel a little silly about this, I'm running Ubuntu 18.04 and I guess the default swapfile size is 2GB. I'm used to using swap partions which are the same size as the system RAM, so I never considered that I could be running out of *both*. I think at this point it's safe to close the bug. I'm going to increase my swapfile size to 16GB and monitor my system more closely. If I get the hard system crash I'll first determine if I ran out of swap, and then if it appears I had enough swap, I'll reopen this bug. Thanks for your assistance!
