Hi,

I've just compiled latest linus git tree and getting now on an Q9300 Core2Quad , ASUS P5E-VM DO motherboard with BIOS Ver. 0606 , BIOS Rev. 8.12
the BIOS bug for CPU#0 message for each processor ?!? That seems somewhat buggy ?:)

That BIOS version is beta and may be really buggy but I never got such a message on 2.6.24* nor on 2.6.25.

Hello; I'm receiving the same thing, I received a response and it
seems that isn't a problem? "I dont know"
But if you're like me  "maticulous"; things like that will bug me all day long.
besides that, are you receiving any freezes at all?, I'm unable to use
that kernel due to the freezes that it's giving me.?
regards;

The kernel seems to work fine I don't have any kind freezes or crashes on that box.

Cool, kernel-2.6.25-rc9 is where I'm at, everything is working fine,
as for the freezeing I'm experiencing, If somebody else reports the
same as well With the same hardware as what I'm using, then buggzilla,
but until then I'm going to look at my .config

I don't see that message on the same kernel but built for 64bit.

So it is 32bit only ? And if yes how it is a HW bug ?

Hi all ,

I'm testing current git on 3 boxes and all got these annoying messages so far on 32bit kernels on all 3 ..
( After a quick scan on LKML posted dmesg's from current git I see a lot such messages too )

Could someone please explain why my HW is broken and why this 'BIOS bug' message is only
relevant on 32bit ? 

generic_processor_info() in apic_64.c does not have such an check. If is a HW bug then why not ?

Assuming my HW is really broken , why is this message displayed 4 times when it should be there just once for CPU#0 ?


Thx,

Gabriel C
