Do you mean the patch http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=c434b7a6aedfe428ad17cd61b21b125a7b7a29ce alone ? I'll try to compile a kernel this way tomorrow, it's a bit late tonight... Furthermore, please tell me if there are risks that I seriously break let's say my IDE devices interrupts doing this? I use EVMS software RAID-5, and I don't want any problem with my RAID-5 set (I'm just out of some that took me hours...) especially because the EVMS snapshots I use for performing backups don't work anymore (I mean: are horribly broke) since I upgraded to a 2.6 series kernel. This is quite another file, but just to explain that I don't have any recent and reliable backup these days, not time for me to take any unnecessary risk with my RAID-5 set until this gets fixed... > Thank you Alan!

Well, that's what I'm worried about ;-)) Anyway, here are the differences I already noticed with and without your two patches, regarding the way the interrupts are distributed: 1/ Without your patches (from an old note I took) : [EMAIL PROTECTED] etc]# cat /proc/interrupts CPU0 0: 626375 IO-APIC-edge timer 1: 1599 IO-APIC-edge i8042 2: 0 XT-PIC cascade 4: 1708 IO-APIC-edge serial 7: 2 IO-APIC-edge parport0 14: 19858 IO-APIC-edge ide2 15: 5220 IO-APIC-edge ide3 16: 30711 IO-APIC-level nvidia 18: 1799 IO-APIC-level eth0, eth1 19: 103365 IO-APIC-level ide0, ide1, ehci_hcd:usb4, aic7xxx 21: 47273 IO-APIC-level uhci_hcd:usb1, uhci_hcd:usb2, uhci_hcd:usb3 22: 2782 IO-APIC-level VIA8233 (I've removed an SCSI controller and added another 2-channel IDE controller between the 2 outputs) 2/ With your 2 patches : > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] etc]# cat /proc/interrupts > > CPU0 > > 0: 934501 IO-APIC-edge timer > > 1: 4611 IO-APIC-edge i8042 > > 2: 0 XT-PIC cascade > > 4: 2779 IO-APIC-edge serial > > 7: 3 IO-APIC-edge parport0 > > 14: 7909 IO-APIC-edge ide4 > > 15: 7918 IO-APIC-edge ide5 > > 16: 38447 IO-APIC-level nvidia > > 18: 2982 IO-APIC-level eth0, eth1 > > 19: 37041 IO-APIC-level ide0, ide1, ide2, ide3, ehci_hcd:usb4 > > 21: 52036 IO-APIC-level uhci_hcd:usb1, > > uhci_hcd:usb2, uhci_hcd:usb3 > > 22: 2850 IO-APIC-level VIA8233 > > NMI: 0 > > LOC: 934453 > > ERR: 0 > > MIS: 0 Cheers. -- Michel Bouissou <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> OpenPGP ID 0xDDE8AC6E La Marseillaise sera d'autant moins sifflée qu'elle sera entonnée par tous. -- Raffoirius, Premier Ministre - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
