Andrew,

Attached is console output containing a stack trace from an Oops, followed
by a Fatal exception, and LOTS of APIC errors.  The machine was hung,
printing APIC error messages forever.

This looks like another as-iosched problem.  So, I'm copying Nick Piggin
on this email.  But the Fatal exception and APIC errors following
that are a mystery to me.

Mary encountered this running the sapdb dbt2 cached database workload on her
project machine.  The project machine was running 2.6.0-test5-mm3.
This same test passes on the stp machines.  But Mary's project machine
has more processors, and more disks, and a different disk controller type.

At this stage, the database has gotten past the database restore phase.
That's where it was failing prior to last night's mm3 patch.  Now, the
database itself has been running for about 30 minutes.  In the cached
case, much of that first 30 minutes is spent loading the cache.

This Oops seems to have occurred at about the time the database is
transitioning to using its cache.  Most of the I/O after this point
is to the log, doing LOTS of sequential writes, with the occasional
random read/write.

Since this machine has more processors, it's doing transactions
more quickly than the same workload on STP machines.  So the log write
traffic is probably a lot heavier.
