Machine is 1.5Ghz SMP DELL MT530 WS. Debian unstable. vanilla 2.5.65+mm-1 patches only.

modules loaded are : usbcore, uhci-hcd, hid, soundcore, ac97_codec and emu10k1.

.config is below.

Thanks,

Philippe

Did your machine have any disk activity? I had a very similar thing
happen, but could still hear my disk move.

Hmm, i don't really remember, but i don't think it was the case though.

Right now, i rebooted into 2.5.65-mm1 and put a serial console. I tried to reproduce the freeze
by doing approx. the same things: Right now the system has stable ( 2 hours uptime ) :)

Still, i had Pan hogging both CPUs for i don't know the reason, and i did experience
some xmms skips.

Thanks,

Philippe

Hi,

My workstation froze hard again , this time after few hours.

There was no disk activiy and nothing on the serial console :-(

The machine didn't freeze even even when i ran several program et the same time
(opera, mozilla, sylpheed, pan,etc...) but froze as the box was almost idle.

Thanks,

Philippe

I've had I/O stall a few times while watching movies, but only the
mplayer process hung, and I could break it off and restart and it
woudl fun again for a few minutes.

This could all be due to the fact that my laptop rejecting "Married

This is a bug in the new nanosleep code.  mplayer asks the kernel for a 50
millisecond sleep and the kernel gives it a two month sleep instead.

Please set INITIAL_JIFFIES to zero and retest.

With what compiler are you building your kernels?

Just hit it with xmms:

$ less /proc/1284/wchan
sys_rt_sigsuspend
$ less /proc/1285/wchan
schedule_timeout
$ less /proc/1286/wchan
schedule_timeout
$ less /proc/16656/wchan
do_clock_nanosleep
$ less /proc/16657/wchan
do_clock_nanosleep

kill -STOP `pidof xmms` ; kill -CONT `pidof xmms` gets it unstuck so
it's not lethal, but still...

There is a bug in do_clock_nanosleep().  I can reproduce it.  I'll fix it up
later today.

Re: Hard freeze with 2.5.65-mm1

[Philippe Gramoullé]

Just a side note.

I rebooted with elevator=deadline this morning and i didn't experienced any
hard freeze since. Uptime is about 8 hours now ( both former freezes were with
elevator=as)

No xmms audio skips, very good overall feel, very good responsiveness
(openoffice,mozilla, news feed update,etc..)

Thanks,

Philippe
