Hi,


I have a 1 GHz Coppermine PC with 512 MB RAM, and it is failing to boot with the nmi_watchdog=1

option. This kernel was rebuilt after doing a "make mrproper". The dmesg log follows:

Can you tell us if earlier kernels worked OK, and if so which version(s)?


I think we've fixed that now.  Len: if so, has that fix been sent in for

No, I don't know of any 2.6.24 oops fixes that aren't already in 2.6.24 --

at least I can't think of any right now.

Actually on closer inspection I'd say that acpi_ns_get_device_callback is

stack gunk and it isn't involved here.


It isn't clear (to me) where in this mess we disabled interrupts around the

set_cpus_allowed().  Chris, if this is repeatable it would be helpful to

set CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y which hopefully will get us a cleaner trace,

thanks.

I'm in a twisty maze of kernel versions, all different.  Looks like we're

calling setup_nmi() under local_irq_disable() somewhere but I got lost

chasing it down.  We can wait for the code to stabilise a bit I guess -


And I assume this happened because you just aren't getting any clock ticks.

Oh yes, 2.6.23.14 is fine with nmi_watchdog=1. (This is on a UP machine with a SMP/PREEMPT kernel,

BTW. "Just for fun.")
