I am probably not searching in the right direction. :o/ CONFIG_LOG_BUF_SHIFT=14 -> Please make it 17, your dmesg are trimmed. # CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME is not set # CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK is not set # CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK_SLEEP is not set -> Please enable these (and go SMP without PREEMPT). CONFIG_BROKEN_ON_SMP=y -> be nice with me and disable this one until your system behaves more correctly, ok ? And add this code to an otherwise standard kernel: diff --git a/kernel/softlockup.c b/kernel/softlockup.c index c67189a..3aa27e4 100644 --- a/kernel/softlockup.c +++ b/kernel/softlockup.c @@ -85,6 +85,7 @@ static int watchdog(void * __bind_cpu) * in softlockup_tick(): */ while (!kthread_should_stop()) { + printk(KERN_INFO "-- MARK --\n"); msleep_interruptible(1000); touch_softlockup_watchdog(); } A single test will be enough. No need to try different combinations. -- Ueimor - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
