[Bug 2081685] Re: [Ubuntu 24.04-generic Kernel-6.8]Hard lockup on 8 Socket System, ThinkSystem SR950 V3.

Hi Paolo, new dmesg log uploaded, could you help to share us what's the difference in next kernel version? Because the rate of reporting lockup is always about 50%.
Many thanks.

[Ubuntu 24.04-generic Kernel-6.8]Hard lockup on 8 Socket System,
ThinkSystem SR950 V3.

Bug description:
There is CPU hard Lockup detected under Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (kernel
6.8.0-38). see attachment"dmesg0723-Lockup-Ubuntu24.04.log"

ubuntu@SR950V3:~$ cat /var/log/dmesg | grep -i lockup

[ 15.241164] kernel: watchdog: Watchdog detected hard LOCKUP on cpu
124

[ 15.241164] kernel: ? watchdog_hardlockup_check+0x1cb/0x3b0


Besides, the issue does not occur on upstream kernel 6.8，6.9, 6.10, 6.11-rc*, then only ubuntu kernel issue. see attachment "dmesg0923-No-Lockup-Kernel 6-10.log".
According to the dmesg log, the "hard lockup" is not a real lockup,
Because many CPU try to get cache_disable_lock spin lock at the same time when kernel boot. And competition has occurred here.
Every CPU's TLB will be flushed in the critical zone, the flushing TLB is a time-consuming operation, and there are so many CPUs,
so the false "hard lockup" was detected by kernel. To avoid customer confuse, when Canonical do the fix?
