Subject: crash on shutdown on rs/6000 powerpc
Date: Tue, 9 Oct 2007 23:00:14 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <18187.31582.236420.418530@cargo.ozlabs.ibm.com> (raw)

I have just seen a crash at shutdown with 2.6.23-rc9 on an RS/6000
powerpc box (POWER3, 64-bit).  It crashed immediately after printing
"Disabling non-boot CPUs", so I tried reverting 4047727e and that
fixed it.  It's unfortunate that that commit added the
disable_nonboot_cpus for all architectures, when only x86[-64] needs
it.  (At least it sounds like only x86[-64] needs it; the commit
message seems quite x86-centric.)

In case anyone on the linuxppc-dev list wants to chase this further,
the crash looks like this:

I don't have time tonight or tomorrow to track this down further.  I'm
taking the kids to the coast tommorow. :)

Paul.
