I fucking hate ryzen issues with linux
Random freezes.
Added processor max c state in grub and disabled c6 state in bios

Motherfucking os still freezes

1st gen Ryzen?

@HitWRight ryzen 3 1200

We're in the same boat. Doesn't matter the distro it freezes randomly. I use Ryzen 5 1600. As far as I can tell no one knows how to fix it, and no one really cares. Most blame faulty hardware, but that's not the case.at this point I'm just leaving YouTube to autoplay all day. Seems to help ;D

And people say Windows is worse. At least you don't have to check for hardware compatibility ;D

Which performance governor is the system using by default? If schedutil, try switching to ondemand or performance, schedutil is shit.
Have you tried compiling latest kernel?

I have both 2nd and 3rd gen at home and I don't have any problems, so this seems to be only 1st gen bug.

@lamka02sk performance

System won't even turn on now
-_-

@xanadu I heard that the first batches of 1st gen Ryzen were affected by stepping problem. If you are not able to fix it, I would RMA it if possible. This really should not be happening.

I am running 2nd gen Ryzen on my main system and I almost never use anything else than powersave governor. No performance problems, the system is still very snappy in 99% of workloads and it is perfectly quiet all the time.

It is 4 years since release and I highly doubt Linux devs would not fix it if it was possible to fix.

Ryzen (5) is giving me issues on Windows, too.

Never had issues with mine on Linux

Can't reproduce, *proceeds to close ticket and blame user*

I love Intel

@HitWRight somehow managed to fix it. Its been working for past 3 days without any freeze.

I added these extra kernel boot params
rcu_nocbs=0-11
idle=nomwait

With disable c6 state in bios menu

Full params

"processor.max_cstate=1 rcu_nocbs=0-11 idle=nomwait"

@xanadu thank you, I'll try it out
