Arch Linux

Figures, updating to 4.16.11 seems to have fixed this, and another issue I didn't report yet
where shutdown -r wasn't rebooting.

I take this back, the issue is still present.
Apparently it happens somewhat after the initial boot messages,
seemingly a while after I log in.

Please find the first kernel that has the issue and the last kernel that does not have the issue. Bisect between those two kernels then report the results of the bisection upstream.

that might take some time, unfortunately.

What I can see on an equivalent system running lts not demonstrating the problem is the following:

perhaps the regression is in lm_sensors or at least in its runtime [re]configuration.

I notice that the first error is the following after clean dmesg:

In other words, seems to change a bit every upgrade now.

I'm somewhat amazed nobody else sees this on arch, perhaps I'm the only
lucky one with a supermicro AMD box...

what might be a more generic linux bug database which might find others experiencing this?

I don't believe I can easily(read:safely) downgrade with ZoL (using DKMS) to bisect as suggested...
Perhaps there are logging flags I could set in the appropriate kernel module(s) to help debug?
Luckily I have the other machine on LTS not demonstrating the problem so there are times when I can
do comparisons albeit a bit wider spaced than a

I cannot reproduce the issue. Is it still valid for you?

now under 5.16.11-arch1-1
with
lib32-lm_sensors 1:3.6.0.r41.g31d1f125-1
lm_sensors 1:3.6.0.r41.g31d1f125-1
qt5-sensors 5.15.2-2

can't say I've seen the problem for a long while (since 4.x?)
