Do you have URLs for bug reports, dmesg logs, etc? Hi, Bjorn, Not sure if you have access to Red Hat Bugzilla, but I filed: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1774802 When I hit this issue. > > > On the machine I can reproduce this issue, part of the topology > > looks like this: > > > > [0000:00]-+-00.0 Intel Corporation Xeon E7 v3/Xeon E5 v3/Core i7 DMI2 > > +-01.0-[02]-- > > +-01.1-[05]-- > > +-02.0-[06]--+-00.0 Emulex Corporation OneConnect NIC (Skyhawk) > > | +-00.1 Emulex Corporation OneConnect NIC (Skyhawk) > > | +-00.2 Emulex Corporation OneConnect NIC (Skyhawk) > > | +-00.3 Emulex Corporation OneConnect NIC (Skyhawk) > > | +-00.4 Emulex Corporation OneConnect NIC (Skyhawk) > > | +-00.5 Emulex Corporation OneConnect NIC (Skyhawk) > > | +-00.6 Emulex Corporation OneConnect NIC (Skyhawk) > > | \-00.7 Emulex Corporation OneConnect NIC (Skyhawk) > > +-02.1-[0f]-- > > +-02.2-[07]----00.0 Hewlett-Packard Company Smart Array Gen9 Controllers > > > > When shutting down PCIe port 0000:00:02.2 or 0000:00:02.0, the machine > > will hang, depend on which device is reinitialized in kdump kernel. > > > > If force remove unused device then trigger kdump, the problem will never > > happen: > > > > echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:00\:02.2/0000\:07\:00.0/remove > > echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger > > > > ...

During this time, the SUT sometimes gets a PCI error that raises an NMI. The reaction to the NMI that the kdump kernel takes is problematic. Sometimes the system prints the tombstones and resets through firmware without problems. Other times it takes a second NMI and hangs. I'll note that the kdump initrd doesn't contain the NIC drivers. When these are added, we don't see the issue.
