Hi List, my kernel dies while probing parport with the following last words: [ 3.672199] parport_pc 00:0b: reported by Plug and Play ACPI [ 3.677969] parport0: PC-style at 0x378 (0x778), irq 7, dma 3 [PCSPP,TRISTATE,COMPAT,EPP,ECP,DMA] [ 3.687691] hwdev DMA mask = 0x0000000000ffffff, dev_addr = 0x0000000020000000 [ 3.694916] Kernel panic - not syncing: swiotlb_alloc_coherent: allocated memory is out of range for device I haven't started a bisection yet, but this seems to be introduced somewhere between 2.6.26 and 2.6.27, at least 2.6.26 was working without problems. The dmesg log + config was obtained from a kernel compiled from git on 10/16/2008. I've attached the configuration + dmesg log to this mail. Board is an ASUS DSBF-D12 with 2 E5410 Processors. Cheers, Sven.
