Re: Dual Athlon on 2.2.19 ?

2001-05-24 Thread Prasanna P Subash

Without the patch below the boot up would hang right after it detected the ide devices.

After applying the patch it booted all the way but the keyboard would hang.

BTW I'm trying to port this patch back to the 2.2.18 TL-Kernel. Are there anymore 
changes I have to
look at ?

Re: Dual Athlon on 2.2.19 ?

2001-05-24 Thread Prasanna P Subash

Alan,

I have a dual athlon on the 760MP chipset.
2.2.20pre1 and 2 dont work. I got it to work partly after applying Johannes Erdfel's
760MP patch in io_apic.c. Even after applying the patch, there are messages like

hdc: IRQ probe failed(0)
hdd: IRQ probe failed(0)
hde: IRQ probe failed(0)

hdc: lost interrupt
hdc: lost interrupt

and then the machine hangs randomly. I an guessing the io_apic does not route the 
interrupts
correctly.

Dual Athlon on 2.2.19

2001-05-24 Thread Prasanna P Subash

Is there a patch to make 2.2.19 kernel work on a dual athlon ? I tried both
2.2.20-pre2aa( with k7 smp ) and 2.2.20-pre2 and at boot after it detects the ide 
devices
it hangs.

I tried compiling in kdb to get a stack trace but the machine went into a hang.

I tried "#ifdef 0"-ing the set_WOL function body( empty function ) in
3c59x.c and enabled acpi and built another kernel
and I still have the problem.

So its NOT a problem with the ACPI code in 3c59x.c per se.


I noticed that the following message was from net/core/netfilter.c( i
got this message on running dhclient )

ip_local_deliver: bad loopback skb: PRE_ROUTING LOCAL_IN

so i diabled netfilter also, and I still had the issue.



I assigned a static IP. ifconfig showed me the right info.
"route" however froze most of the times. I have 2 routes

172.16.12.0 *   255.255.252.0   U 0  00 eth0
default 172.16.12.1 0.0.0.0 UG0  00 eth0

It would freeze after the first one most often. If it did'nt, do a ping www.google.com,
which will drop all the packets, and try route again, and it would freeze after the 
first route.

I strace'd route and noticed that I was waiting on "poll". I have attached the strace 
info on route.

I dont know about sharing resources. I have attached my dmesg.

The whole thing works like a charm under APM however.

I'm gonna try increasing vortex_debug level to see what happens.

would be glad to furnish more info...

Thats right. ACPI was what made 3c90x not work :( With APM it works perfectly.

the last 4 lines showup after 2-3 seconds as I guess they are from the bottom halves.

To prevent this from writing all over my text based app I have to flank the open()

On a 2.2 kernel I get 2 debug lines instead (from end_request).

Are the log levels correct for these debug messages ?

PROBLEM: ext2 superblock issue on 2.4.1-ac20

2001-02-21 Thread Prasanna P Subash

Hello lkml,
I just oldconfiged linux kernel with my 2.4.1 .config. When I boot the new
2.4.1-ac20 kernel, I get a message saying that my ext2 superblock is corrupted.
I get a message asking me to run e2fsck -b 8193 <...hdd dev..>
My 2.4.0-ac4 that I've been running for more than 2-3 weeks now has no problems
booting though.

What am I doing wrong ? I would be glad to give more info.

Here is the ver_linux output of 2.4.0-ac24 kernel. Every thing but the kernel must 
be same.

the bogomips algorithm changed between kernels. Now it uses the tsc register. Your
bogomips should typically be about 2*processor mhz.

I tried to debug this issue with the kdb on 2.4.1-pre7.
Here is the stack trace

mcount+0x1f9
wait_for_packet+0x13
skb_recv_datagram+0xbb
unix_dgram_recvmsg+0x53
sock_recvmsg+0x41
sock_read+0x8f
sys_read+0xa4
system_call+0x3c

I looked at the skb_recv_datagram code and noticed that wait_for_packet is not
returning an error, even while trying to read a closed socket.
Anyways here is a patch against 2.4.1 that will fix the issue.
Please feel free to flame me about the patch :)

thanks

Your scsi driver could be compiled into as a module. "mkinitrd" to boot off
a scsi root disk and update lilo info.
Another quick solution would be to compile the scsi driver into the kernel.

I have experienced similar issues with 2.4.0 and its test. I have a bttv848 chipset.
I even tried compiling in kdb as a part of the kernel to see if it oopses, but no luck.

I will try trying 0.7.47 today.

this works on 2.2.16, last time i tried.
