Subject: [.32-rc3] scheduler: iwlagn consistently high in "waiting for CPU"
Date: Mon, 5 Oct 2009 15:00:54 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200910051500.55875.elendil@planet.nl> (raw)
With .32-rc3 I'm getting occasional skips from amarok while playing music
from an NFS share (3 today so far), something I've not had in a long time.
The reason looks to be that latencytop consistently shows 'iwlagn' as the
top affected process with "Scheduler: waiting for CPU".
Values of 100-140 ms occur frequently, but I've also seen higher values
(180, 207). I don't remember seeing iwlagn high in the list before, but I
have not checked earlier kernels yet.
Added to that 'phy0' also frequently shows high with values of 25-75 ms.
The system is otherwise essentially idle. Other processes typically show a
latency < 5 ms.
System: HP 2510p notebook, x86_64, Core2 Duo, Debian stable
Cheers,
FJP
