Just a small message to say "me too". I spend the last 4 months spending a lot of time and money to change the motherboard, the cpu, the power... Before doing research and find that these freezes are software related :(

I tried (and manage) to compile my own kernel with CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU=Y and so on. Before that, my server always crashed after 2 ou 3 days. With this custom kernel, yes, it's better... The freeze only appear after 8 or 9 days. But the freeze are still here. And I guess I will just sell all this stuff and go back to intel :(

I can't understand that this information "LINUX + RYZEN = NOT STABLE" is not spread everywhere. Lot's of people out there are loosing lot's of time and money, I'm sure of that. Of course I'm grateful for all open sources developers (I'm sharing also what I can :) and I really hope that the root cause of this bug will be found and corrected in the next few months... We need to be able to use linux on RYZEN ! (perfect cpu for servers).

If someone manage to make this bug disappear (and have an uptime > 30 days), please share ! how you did that, with enough details for beginner like me :)
