kworker/0:3+pm hogging CPU

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,
I am not sure when this started happening but at least 5.6, 5.7 and
5.8-rc6 all exhibit this problem. Please note that the this is happining
on a laptop which is not completely healthy. The BIOS complains that the
Battery cannot be charged because the power supply cannot be recognized.
This is somehting I have for a longer time without noticing the
kworker/0:3+pm problem so I do not think they are related but who knows.

Anyway, kworker/0:3+pm is hogging CPU. /proc/<pid>/0:3+pm is very often
empty so I suspect it just schedules very often and performs only small
amount of work. Here are few backtraces I've managed to catch

Is this something known or something I can give more information about?
>From a very quick look into the code it sounds as if the system wanted
to suspend an USB device/controller but that keeps failing again and
again.
