Subject: I/O APIC: AMD Errata #22 may be present.
Date: Mon, 24 Oct 2005 14:47:28 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <435D5670.1070803@ianbrandt.com> (raw)
Hi,
I have an Appro 1124s server with a Tyan Thunder K7 S2462 motherboard,
two AMD Athlon MP 1600 processors, the 760 MP chipset, and a single
PCI device that is an Adaptec 2100S SCSI RAID controller (on a PCI
riser/adapter of unknown origin). I've just upgraded to 2.6.13, and
occasionally my server fails to boot. It seems to hang at this line:
I/O APIC: AMD Errata #22 may be present. In the event of instability
try booting with the "noapic" option.
That line is however present in my kernel messages even on a
successful boot. My entire dmesg from a successful boot,
/proc/interrupts, and proc/cpuinfo are below.
I've read Documentation/i386/IO-APIC.txt and have a vague
understanding of what it means. I will certainly try the noapic
option to see if things settle down, but is there any real world
performance loss in doing so? Should I be looking into using "...the
pirq= boot parameter to 'hand-construct' IRQ entries"? Is there
anything else I could do to help squash this bug?
Thanks!
Ian
