Subject: via boot up hang during probing for no sata disks
Date: Mon, 14 Aug 2006 15:33:35 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200608141533.35448.ak@suse.de> (raw)
One of my test machines hangs at boot when booting 2.6.18rc4.
It seems to busy loop somewhere because the CPU fans spin up.
The machine doesn't have any disks (just two PATAPI CD-ROMs)
and boots over the network.
The SATA drivers are compiled into the kernel (x86-64 defconfig)
Strangely it seems to only hang with the 64bit kernel -- when
I boot a 32bit kernel it usually comes up. It is likely some timing
issue because booting with initcall_debug also seems to make
the problem go away. I verified with a printk and without initcall_debug
that the hang still happens in svia_init.
I haven't seen that with earlier kernels.
libata version 2.00 loaded.

Chipset is

I will disable the driver for now because I don't need it
(after all the machine has no disks), but I wanted to let you now.
