linux 2.6.19 still crashing

linux 2.6.19 still crashing

[Andreas Jellinghaus]

my msi s270 laptop. but all vanilla kernel I ever tried do
that, also the debian and ubuntu kernel are instable too.
But: xen 3.0.2 plus xen'ified linux 2.6.16.31 are rock solid.
any idea what the issue could be? I'm running 64bit kernel,
64bit userland (plus some 32bit apps), and the cpu is a turion
mt-40 (sempron users seem to not have this problem).

I documented all details, config files, dmesg, /proc/interrupts,
lspci -vvv and xorg log file at
	http://www.megawiki.org/wiki/S270Crashing

I can also mail you all those files (didn't want to spam
linux-kernel with a huge mail), and provide any other information
that can help, try patches or command line options, or different
compile options or whatever you can suggest.

Thanks for your help!

Regards, Andreas

Hi,
1st you should put this information on http://bugzilla.kernel.org/
(choose enter a new bug, may choose Category ACPI with component
config-interrupts ) for better organization, instead make your own bug
documentation.

The documentation is very good  you should attach the same information
on bugzilla

your bug kept me the attention because on bad interrupts  you have :

21:     100000   IO-APIC-fasteoi   ohci1394

Exactly oops on 100000 interrupts, I had seen this before .
I have my bug on http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6419
which one of the bugs looks like similar to yours. 

So, You are saying with kernel 2.6.16.31 with xen 3.0.2, you don't have
this problem , I like to try it, how or where you build this Xenified
kernel ? 

Thanks,

The package source were available at , but they no longer are :(

I can send you my copies (either parts or all), if you don't mind
getting big emails

only *dsc *diff.gz and *orig.tar.gz are needed, then you can recompile
the rest yourself ("dpkg-source -x *dsc; cd xen-*/; dpkg-buildpackage 
-rfakeroot").

or I can send you the kernel patch as file and the xen hypervisor:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  244694 2006-04-19 12:14 /boot/xen-3.0.2-2.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  604942 2006-04-19 12:14 
/usr/src/kernel-patches/diffs/xen/linux-2.6.16-xen.patch.gz

it applies clean against 2.6.16, but if with 2.6.16.31 I had
to manually fix two rejects.

Send me this (patches) please I like to try it, I work with rpms , so
don't send me debs.

yesterday, I had try 2.6.19-rt1
( http://people.redhat.com/mingo/realtime-preempt/ )
which don't show the 100000 interrupts problem anymore, but was just a
preliminary test.
