Subject: microcode issues on VIA C-7
Date: Tue, 01 Feb 2011 16:53:26 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4D483A86.3030904@pardus.org.tr> (raw)
Hi,
Fedora ships a udev rule for automatic microcode loading. It seems that
this causes a weird looping on an HP mini 2133 (VIA C-7 processor).
modprobe returns "No such device" as the system does not support
microcode loading but when you listen to events with
udevadm monitor
there's an infinite loop of "/module/microcode" ADD/REMOVE. So
microcode_ctl is nearly always running according to top, hogging the
machine.
Do you have any idea what can cause this? Here's the udev rule:
KERNEL="cpu[0-9]*", ACTION="add", RUN+="/sbin/modprobe microcode"
KERNEL="microcode", ACTION="add", RUN+="/sbin/microcode_ctl -Qu"
The kernel is 2.6.37.
