2.6.2-rc1-mm2

[Andrew Morton]

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.2-rc1/2.6.2-rc1-mm2/


- There is a new debug check in here which drops a stack trace when a piece
  of code calls one of the sleep_on() functions without lock_kernel() held. 
  This is almost certainly a bug.  Please try to identify (from the trace)
  which subsystem is the culprit and copy its maintainer when reporting such
  traces.

  After ten such warnings the diagnostic shuts itself up.

- A big SiS framebuffer driver update.  Please test, and include Thomas
  Winischhofer <thomas@winischhofer.net> in any reports.

- Included the latest ACPI test tree.  Please copy
  acpi-devel@lists.sourceforge.net on any ACPI-related reports.

- Another MD update.

I don't know which Oops this fixes, but with this patch my bogomips value is 
8.19 (!!!) instead of ~1300. With clock=pit I get about 1300 bogomips, and 
with clock=tsc I get about 2600 bogomips. The CPU is a 1300MHz AMD Duron.

Hi Andrew,

With the latest pmtmr fixes, synaptics mouse driver is in sync again and
my bogomips are correct too. (synaptics had been loosing packages in -mm
releases the last weeks)

Only the radeon dri driver cannot be inserted because of an missing
symbol: 
radeon: Unknown symbol cmpxchg

Thx for the frequent releases,
Jan

Hi,

This fails to boot here.  Config is 2-rc1 updated with oldconfig.  It seems that it cannot 
find root.  I did enable generic ide.  If required,  I'll enable a serial console and get a log 
tonight.

I know it feels like a kick in the pants when your BogoMIPS drops to
leves not seen since the 80s, but the value you are getting is expected.
Since the patch above uses the pmtmr for __delay(), loops_per_jiffies is
then calibrated to the ACPI PM timer's frequency instead of aproximately
the cpu's freq. 

This was necessary, because on some systems calibrate_dealy()
incorrectly calibrates delays. Your system shows this, but its your
cycle based delay (clock=tsc) which is overestimated, so you see no
problem. The case Andrew describes above is when the loop based delay
(clock=pit or clock=pmtmr w/o this patch) is under estimated causing
problems when we initialize the APIC timer.  

Additionally, since we're no longer dependent on the cpu speed,
speedstep like changes to the cpu freqency no longer affects time.

thanks

OK, thanks.

You'll need to disable 386 support in the processor selection menu.

That's odd.

Would be appreciated, thanks.  Or you could try reverting
suspicious-looking new patches which were added to mm2.

This is a known problem if your .config includes support for the 386
cpu.

Unselect

  Processor type and features
    Processor support
      386

and recompile your kernel.

Still have to try with -mm2, but with mm1, my i2c temp sensors are scaled by 10 !!

It turned out to be a distcc problem.  I rebuilt locally and it booting ok
now...

Try using the latest version of lmsensors.  It should handle the proper
scaling issues.  If not, please let the lmsensors developers know.
