Subject: 2.5.8: preemption + SMP broken ?
Date: Wed, 17 Apr 2002 23:22:53 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20020417232253.A629@in.ibm.com> (raw)

My machine (4cpu x86) hangs while booting a kernel with SMP
and preemption enabled. It hangs while executing one of
the initcalls, probably BIO since that is where the
next boot message comes from during a successful boot with SMP
(or preemption) disabled.

Has anyone tried out preemption with SMP ?

Thanks
