This patch will set the correct bits to turn on Aggressive
Link Power Management (ALPM) for the ahci driver. This
will cause the controller and disk to negotiate a lower
power state for the link when there is no activity (see
the AHCI 1.x spec for details). This feature is mutually
exclusive
libata drivers can define a function (enable_pm) that will
perform hardware specific actions to enable whatever power
management policy the user set up from the scsi sysfs
interface if the driver supports it. This power management
policy will be activated after all disks have been
enumerated
Hi,
This is an updated series of ALPM patches. I moved all link power management
stuff out of scsi sysfs and just use the shost_addr pointer in the host
template to create the sysfs files. This provides the same interface
as before, without requiring any scsi changes. I also fixed a bug in
the
Use a stored value for which interrupts to enable. Changing this allows
us to selectively turn off certain interrupts later and have them
stay off.

I have done some more testing, and it now looks as if this was actually

The following strange behavior can be observed:
1. large file is written
2. after 30 seconds, nr_dirty goes down by 1024
3. then for some time (< 30 sec) nothing happens (disk idle)
4. then nr_dirty again goes down by 1024
5. repeat from 3. until whole file is written
So basically a 4Mbyte chunk

No,
I'm making an assumption that depmod is somehow to blame and have
logged this as a kernel bug,
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8829
It turns out I was adding the web100 patch (http://www.web100.org) to
the 2.6.21 kernel and that's what causes the symbol resolving problem
below.

First of all, thanks for the quick response.
Or maybe run oprofile to try to figure out any abnormal system load?
vmstat may provide some initial information as to what kind of activity
exactly causes this issue.

Adrian,
You said earlier you're looking at smaller allnoconfig kernels.
One thing I noticed recently that realtime pi futexes are always
enabled and that pulls in a lot of other code (like the plists)
Userland needs to handle them not being available anyways for older
kernels.

I have changed static /dev to udev on my machine. It has

Right that is why I asked for someone to take it over and do mainline work
if that is wanted. I had a couple of requests for these patches.

Hi Rafał,
It seems that you're already using irq 9 for another device, and as Alan says
the cs5530 audio device doesn't seem to do irq sharing. It seems to me that you
need to go into your BIOS settings at startup and tell the device to use an irq
line that's not already in use by some other
Hello everybody,
if I mount a dm-crypt-encrypted Harddisk/RAID-Array on an Adaptec 3200S,
and produce load (for example with bonnie++) the kernel crashes.
This is always reproducible. To reproduce simply mount an dm-crypt
encrypted device and produce load -- I always used bonnie++.
Unencrypted

You have 2 Broadcom devices in your system. 07:00.0 is a wireless
device, I think. 8:4.0 is the tg3 device.
It's clear that the tg3 device is still in D3 state after resume and
that explains why

So you insert a work struct that executes last which wakes the flushing

Well you have to do a lot more work then to handle instable TSCs then.
In particular the frequencies can be different between CPUs, they
change (which

This change is more dynamic than than just setting a single priority ..

Yes I am definitely interested in seeing which type of cpu runs a certain
section faster.

Yes, the SATA chip is broken. Probably time to check the known errata
on the chip, and if it isn't known, bring nvidia in to debug their
silicon.

That would only matter if you're interested in absolute system
performance of different systems.
But comparable performance testing in general only makes sense when you
only change one variable: either you change the hardware or
you

Enable the MB93090 motherboard's MB86943 PCI arbiter correctly by assigning to
the register rather than comparing against it. This is required to support
