2.6.17-1.2174_FC5: : Disabling IRQ #7 / nobody cared / usb_hcd_irq

[Simeon Penev]

Hi,

i'm running FC5 on an Asus A6T-AP005H laptop. My kernel is 2.6.17-1.2174_FC5.
Somewhere at about 10 minutes after i start the system, the USB subsystem dies with the message:

dmesg:
-----------------------------BEGIN--------------------------------------
irq 7: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)

Call Trace: <IRQ> <ffffffff802b3317>{__report_bad_irq+48}
       <ffffffff802b3515>{note_interrupt+433} <ffffffff802b2e2e>{__do_IRQ+189}

       <ffffffff8024c90d>{cpu_idle+151} <ffffffff80279f14>{start_secondary+1131}
handlers:
[<ffffffff803d36f1>] (usb_hcd_irq+0x0/0x55)
Disabling IRQ #7
------------------------------END---------------------------------------

After that only the usb mouse continues to work. My external USB harddisk and the USB soundcard are not accessible anymore. This behaviour is reproducable after each reboot. 
The only way i found to keep the USB running is reading some file constantly from the external harddrive. However if i stop accessing the partition on the drive, eventually i get the same exception.

In order to boot successfully i boot the kernel with the 'noapic' option, or else i'm getting 'kernel panic' in some point right after the acpi initialization.
I hope someone could help me fix this problem. If needed i'm able to recompile the kernel and test any patches.

Here is the list of the hardware:

Although IRQ7 is traditionally LP, it seems to get identified for almost

Yes, that's a shotgun approach, I'm still running 2.6.16.2111 on FC4 
because later kernels don't init the video or wireless correctly.

I'll try that, but actually i wanted to help fix the problem if it's a
bug with the kernel.

Already tried, but kernel panics.

> - disable any CPU speed stuff you have running (just for information)

Yes, i'm using cpufreq, but it's a feature i'm not willing to give away
because the laptop is more silent. The fan works less.

Ok, i'll do that.

Already have the latest.

Matter of approach. I would not disable an IRQ until there had been some 
number of uncaught interrupts in a row, others feel the number is one. 
But there really is an interrupt, so it's probably not a "bug" in that 
sense.

Noted, but "just for information" would let you see if the speedstep was 
the cause, or at least contributed. That would help run it down.

I have a machine which does zero or one of these, so I'm familiar with 
the problem. I am running an older kernel which whines but doesn't 
disable, and since I don't need IRQ7 I wouldn't be too unhappy if it did 
disable. But I think there's an underlying hardware issue, or at least 
hardware to driver mismatch. Since you said irqpoll causes problems 
there's definitely something not working right.

Cpuspeed doesn't seem to be the problem. After disabling the service,
the problem is still there.

Could it be that the noapic kernel parameter influences this behavior?
