YAY! (I wonder why this was so .config-dependent? You'd think it would trigger on anything, but I couldn't even make it happen on all my hosts...) > The patch below fixes it for me.

As far as I can tell it's identical in behaviour in the !NO_HZ case. Annoyingly, now I've upgraded the host to 2.6.25 (hence sans skas3), timings or something have changed such that I now can't make the freeze happen at all. I'll reboot the host into 2.6.24.x shortly to get skas back and try again. Oh, and, it's pedantic of me, I know, but what does this do if time goes backwards in the NO_HZ case? (Or is handling that a 2.6.26 thing?) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
