Fedora 21 TC6 Live, and others; Adobe Flash crashes PCI bus, eventually

[Joerg Lechner]

Hi,
I am watching successfully a film since about one hour.
F21 LXDE Live CD X86_64 TC6, Live CD running
Kernel 3.16.1-301.fc21 X86_64
Firefox 31.0-3.fc21 X86_64, just installed
Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.400-release X86_64 just installed from Adobe Website
The system is running on an ACER Laptop  Aspire E 15 E5-571G-50K9
BIOS in UEFI mode.

So far I don't have a problem watching films in this configuration (LXDE Live CD F21 TC6) 
Kind Regards

Betreff: Fedora 21 TC6 Live, and others; Adobe Flash crashes PCI bus, eventually


An established and well behaved desktop system runs Fedora very well and is stable, gallium or fglrx, heavy steam games, heavy disk i/o, and internet tasks with no problems.

However, whenever adobe flash is enabled (latest from their site) in Firefox, and viewing video from 1 minute to 1 day, a PCI bus crashes taking out portions of the system.

This occurs on Fedora 21 TC6 Live, Fedora 20 Live, rawhide live, and Fedora 19.

This issue has existed for quite awhile, and manifests itself in a variety of obscure ways, specifically in my case the PCI bus failure hangs the network with massive tx/rx errors on the Qualcomm Atheros AR8151 (atl1c module) and frozen sata devices. Hardware investigated and tested. It occurs specifically on an Asrock Extreme 3 r2.0 board, but may appear differently depending on system and PCI configuration and likely other boards as I have seen other kernel and fedora bugzilla reports that point to similar issues.


More detailed information here.

Thank You for your consideration, awfl.

PS not sure if I should keep updating that bug report, or start a new one?
