User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.11 Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org [cleaned up some Cc as this is not interesting to all MLs] Andrew, first bisection spotted the cause of the stalls at boot (happening while starting portmap and after usb-storage scan): time-clocksource-infrastructure.patch time-generic-timekeeping-infrastructure.patch time-i386-conversion-part-1-move-timer_pitc-to-i8253c.patch time-i386-conversion-part-2-rework-tsc-support.patch time-i386-conversion-part-3-enable-generic-timekeeping.patch time-i386-conversion-part-4-remove-old-timer_opts-code.patch time-i386-conversion-part-5-acpi-pm-variable-renaming-and-config-change.patch time-i386-clocksource-drivers.patch time-fix-cpu-frequency-detection.patch Cc-ed john stultz actually git bisect[1] pointed to time-fix-cpu-frequency-detection.patch but it's clearly wrong. Reverting all the above patches (I suppose they are somewhat related) fixes the stalls I experience. I can test corrections if necessary. eh, see: during the multiple boots I noticed that just hitting sysrq make the boot process go on when stuck ... sda: assuming drive cache: write through sda: sda1 sd 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi removable disk sda /etc/rcS.d/S04udev: line 224: 2347 Quit sleep 0.2 ...

I'll re-bisect the thing tomorrow to spot what's causing reiserfs oops [1]: I imported the patches into git by means of: while [ $(quilt next) ] ; do quilt push && git add && git commit -a -m "$(quilt top)" ; done -- mattia :wq!
