I've got a new Athlon 900 with Abit KT7A motherboard and a 20Gb Seagate
ST320414A 7200 ATA100 HDD.
I've been trying to figure out why my hdparm -t rates where so low.
Then I stumbled across this:

There is quite a bit of PCI stuff that gets compiled into parport_pc.c
even when CONFIG_PCI isn't enabled. This patch cuts down the size quite
a bit (more than 4k off the object, about 1k off the zImage) for the
older non-PCI machines which are typically resource starved anyway...

I get many of these across the console when testing a network application
that. Basically the client opens up a bunch of connections to the server
and starts firing off data as quickly as it can. If you need further

hans,
we've found that the TCP and UDP performance on 2.4 is *dramatically*
better than 2.2. with the acenic gig-e driver on PIII-933 UP (66MHz x
64bits PCI) we are getting 993 Mb/s with 2.4.0 with jumbo frames (about
850 Mb/s with standard ethernet frames). the best number we got with 2.2

We have the same trouble on PPC but we make sure to re-sync on each
interrupt. We can see several lost timer interrupts after a ^L in emacs
running on the fb console. The resync lets us catch up on those interrupts
(and not lose time) but we still spend a lot of time not servicing

Sorry, if this issue was already discussed in lkml. I didn't find

My Problem:
I want to set the unmaskirq and dma -flag for my ide cd-recorder.
The Problem is, that devfs creates no ide device, but only
the /dev/scsi/../{cd,general} devices are created.
This is NOT a dd problem. I have been trying to write large files to a vfat
filesystem. This is definitely a bug with the kernel. I have had the seg
fault. Try running the program again, but look at your console. It think
that it will result in a kernel bug statement.I think that mine said it was

Hi Arnaldo,
Thanks every much for the pointer. Yes, with 2.4.2-ac5 the problem is gone.
Also, there was another similar problem with lilo stalling that is gone too.

I think that I found what gives me a hell with this box and it
looks like that this not Linux at all. Once again, this is Athlon
K6 on Asus AV7 mobo and "Award Advanced ACPI BIOS" version 1005C.
I have more checks to make before I will be fully satisfied but
this looks like it.
In this BIOS

Not at all. A non-zero usage count means the module can't be unloaded.
Whatever the module does with the usage count apart from that is
completely it's own choice.

Yes, it did not result in full stall. Lost wakeups were recovered
f.e. by any keyboard activity.

I remember this your report. However, recent news force to suspect
that the reason was in Solaris yet. Actually, if you send tcpdump of

A small fix in dump_stats() (scsi_merge.c) invoked when (struct req)
has inconsistent number of segments. The list formed
by b_reqnext is null terminated, so the current code is
simply wrong: it can cause a oops if (req->bh) is NULL,
or it fails to print the last element in the b_reqnext chain.
