I can't use cdrtools 2.01 with kernel 2.6.10 (i386, P4). Once the 0
of xxx MB written message appears, the CD-writer spins down, the HD
led lits, and the system nearly hangs (many processes in D(isk)
state). After a minute or two, timeout messages on hda (main HD)
appear in dmesg, followed by hdc
Hi!
I don't think it's HPET timer, or CONFIG_SMP. It also looks like your
local APIC timer is working.
If you have a serial console, you can put one letter printks in the
code. Can you check if you ever get to smp_apic_timer_interrupt()?
That's where you should get to after the sleep, and
Hi!
Hmmm, that sounds like the local APIC does not wake up the PIT
interrupt properly after sleep. Hitting the keys causes the timer
interrupt to get called, and that explains why it keeps running. But
the timer ticks are not happening as they should for some reason.

Hi!
I used your config advices from second mail, still it does not work as
expected: system gets too sleepy. Like it takes a nap during boot
after dyn-tick: Maximum ticks to skip limited to 1339, and key is
needed to make it continue boot. Then cursor stops blinking and

Hi Sripathi,
This patch solves a problem with working of getdents while using 32 bit
binaries on 64 bit Linux/390. glibc expects d_type to be passed if we
have a kernel version after 2.6.4, so we have to also handle it in the
32bit syscall converter. Similar patch was given for PPC by

I don't like calling crash_kexec() directly in (ex.) panic().
It should be call_dump_hook() (or something like this).

Hi,
I have got an offer to write a book on Linux
filesystems. In this I would like to cover existing
filesystems like ext3, xfs etc. I would also cover
embedded file systems such as jffs,ROMfs,cramsf etc.
I am having some licensing questions. It would be
really great if you can clarify on them
