[parisc-linux] ksoftirqd is using over 90% CPU (?!)

[Ruediger Scholz]

Hi there,

just another question: I just ran top to look what processe are running 
and noticed that ksoftirqd is up to 98% CPU time. I remember that there 
was a problem that s.th in the kernel eats up a lot oft CPU time. Wasn't 
it solved?

Hi,

Sorry if i do not follow your thread but this looks like a very old pb.
Update your kernel (I do not remember exactly what is installed with 
woody but all later) would help.

hth,

Sorry, and the last test i did was 22-pa2 but i didn't notice this pb. 
(for the moment I am far away from my parisc box :( ).
Anyway I think that those 2 info would help pa's hacker's to locate the 
actual pb ;)

Thanks,
    Joel
