(sorry for late response, I'm just back from vacation) We finally located this to a bug in mwait based C-state entry. Venki's patch has fixed it. http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/78544/ Venki, this is the original report, http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=126441481427331&w=4 Thanks, Lin Ming -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-testers" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
