Subject: Catching NForce2 lockup with NMI watchdog
Date: Thu, 4 Dec 2003 21:54:04 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20031205045404.GA307@tesore.local> (raw)

Hi,

I have a NForce2 board and can easily reproduce a lockup with grep on an IDE 
hard disk at UDMA 100.  The lockup occurs when both Local APIC + IO-APIC are 
enabled.  It was suggested to me to use NMI watchdog to catch it.  However, the 
NMI watchdog doesn't seem to work.

When I set the kernel parameter "nmi_watchdog=1" I get this message in 
/var/log/syslog:
Dec  4 20:10:30 tesore kernel: ..MP-BIOS bug: 8254 timer not connected to 
IO-APIC
Dec  4 20:10:30 tesore kernel: timer doesn't work through the IO-APIC - 
disabling NMI Watchdog!

"nmi_watchdog=2" seems to work at first, In /var/log/messages:
Dec  4 20:13:11 tesore kernel: testing NMI watchdog ... OK.
but it still locks up.

I have the complete logs when running with nmi_watchdog, kernel config, and more
here:

If you have any ideas please give them =)

Jesse
