Subject: Re: [announce] [patch] ultra-scalable O(1) SMP and UP scheduler
Date: Fri, 4 Jan 2002 06:16:50 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20020104061650.A22264@earthlink.net> (raw)

Ingo,

I tried the new scheduler with the kdev_t patch you mentioned and it
went very well for a long time.  dbench 64, 128, 192 all completed,
3 iterations of bonnie++ were fine too.

When I ran the syscalls test from the http://ltp.sf.net/ I had a 
few problems.

The first time the machine rebooted.  The last thing in the logfile
was that pipe11 test was running.  I believe it got past that point.
(the syscall tests run in alphabetic order).

The second time I ran it, when I was tailing the output the 
machine seemed to freeze.  (Usually the syscall tests complete
very quickly).  I got the oops below on a serial console, it
scrolled much longer and didn't seem to like the call trace
would ever complete, so i rebooted.

I ran it a third time trying to isolate which test triggered the oops,
but the behavior was different again.  The machine got very very
slow, but tests would eventually print their output.  The test that 
triggered the behavior was apparently between pipe11 and the setrlimit01 
command below.

Here is top in the locked state:

It looks like you already have an idea where the problem is.
Looking forward to the next patch.  :)
