Freezes on Fedora 41 Kernel 6.13

After updating to kernel 6.13 I’ve noticed that my system will occasionally freeze. The issue may have also happened on kernel 6.12 but I skipped by it since I thought it might have been a fluke. The screen will stay up but will be unresponsive until I hold down the power button. I’ve collected the dmesg log from the last run and there are multiple messages like the one below from around the time it freezes.

watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#4 stuck for 27s! [gnome-shell:3063]

A cut version of my dmesg log can be found here Jan 28 21:21:57.359157 hazepad kernel: list_add corruption. next->prev should be - Pastebin.com

Please note that the 6.13 kernel is still being tested (both vanilla and rawhide).

Anything you install from rawhide is non-standard for fedora 41 so most fedora users will not be able to assist. The same applies to the 6.13.0-361.vanilla.fc41.x86_64 vanilla kernel that you display here. Non-standard kernels are outside the normal support on this forum.

I applaud your efforts but suggest you ask for support from the upstream sources when using non-standard software.

Hey thanks for the response and thanks for pointing that out. I forgot I had enabled the vanilla kernels awhile ago so that I had have access to amd PM fix that stopped my laptop from freezing when recovering from sleep.

I switched back to the normal fedora kernels and I’ll see if the freezing still happens.

Same here with 6.12 kernel on a Thinkpad A485 laptop, AMD Ryzen 5 PRO 2500U w/ Radeon Vega Mobile Gfx (8) @ 2.000GHz - ATI Radeon Vega Series

I downgraded to 6.12.10-200.fc41.x86_64 and I haven’t seen the freeze yet. But I have been on vacation so not using my laptop as much at the moment. Are you using the fedora kernel or the vanilla kernel?

Updated to 6.12.11-200.fc41.x86_64 just yesterday. Have to use it for some time to see if freeze still happens.

I’m seeing hard OS freezes when manipulating specific files (for ex. dropping a large image into Firefox) on both 6.13 and recent 6.13.1 using the CachyOS kernel on Silverblue. I was hopeful when the new patch mentioned some possibly related commits but nu u uh :cry:

libfs: Return ENOSPC when the directory offset range is exhausted
Revert "libfs: Add simple_offset_empty()"
Revert "libfs: fix infinite directory reads for offset dir"
libfs: Replace simple_offset end-of-directory detection
libfs: Use d_children list to iterate simple_offset directories

6.13.2 fixed the freezes for me

Updated to kernel-6.13.4-200.fc41.x86_64 today and after a reboot noticed weird system behaviour on the main NVME drive. A freeze occurs once I try to access a video recording on a secondary magnetic hard drive, GNOME Showtime app shows a spinner, opening apps does not work and then the system locks up.

System logs show that CPU got stuck, keyword list_del corruption,. Sharing relevant part of the logs:

Going to stay on 6.12.15-200.fc41.x86_64 for a bit longer. Any pointers on how to solve this (or where to report properly) would be greatly appreciated!

Looks like this issue: Bug in Kernel 6.13 crashing Flatpak and FUSE apps
Looks like it’s been fixed upstream but the fix hasn’t made its way into 6.13 yet? Arch patched their kernel to get the fix in 6.13, maybe Fedora should do something similar, not sure.
