Bug Description

After upgrading to eoan ermine, my laptop (Dell Precision 5510) got an error message stating
"Error: out of memory
Press any key to continue..."

After pressing a key, nothing changed. I left the room and came back to see that there was a kernel panic. I'll attach picture as I couldn't copy/paste the console output.

Description: Ubuntu 19.10
Release: 19.10

linux-image-5.3.0-19-generic

I expect the kernel to load without a panic.
The kernel panicked.

After rebooting and selecting an older kernel, I was able to boot and load the old kernel without issue (5.0.0-32-generic)

Still panics. Looks like the same panic

Would it be possible for you to do a kernel bisection?

First, find the last -rc kernel works and the first -rc kernel doesn’t work from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/

Then,
$ sudo apt build-dep linux
$ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git
$ cd linux
$ git bisect start
$ git bisect good $(the working version you found)
$ git bisect bad $(the non-working version found)
$ make localmodconfig
$ make -j`nproc` deb-pkg
Install the newly built kernel, then reboot with it.
If it doesn’t work,
$ git bisect old
Otherwise,
$ git bisect new
Repeat to "make -j`nproc` deb-pkg" until you find the commit fixes the issue.

Yeah I would, but with the 5.3.0-26 update, it's now working again. Do you still want me to try?

If it's fixed then there's no need to test further.
