Package: kernel-image-2.6.8-1-686-smp
Severity: normal
Version: 2.6.8-1

I have a problem with 2.6.8 on my machine.
My machine is i865G (attached lspci.log.gz).

1. When I boot up 2.6.8 without no option, kernel crashes immediately
   around CPU (sorry I didn't write down its log).
2. When I boot up with 'acpi=ht', it works. But after then, I launch
   some applications (such as Mozilla), kernel dumps oops or goes
   crash (atteched crash.log.gz). I forgot detail but I thought
   /proc/interrupts looked strange. IRQ number was 3-digit.
3. I backed to 2.6.7-1-686-smp with acpi=ht, it works correctly.

I'm sorry but this machine already works as business so I couldn't
reproduce a problem so often. But I think 2.6.8 has something critical
problem around ACPI or interrupt handling.

Thanks,

I also have this problem, (as with 2.6.7) (see 
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=263420)
The problem seems to be with ACPI on recent Intel boards, with HT processors
Also there was some discussion as to whether the patch for this was 
included in 2.6.8. It seems it was not.

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
I've been having the same problem both with 2.6.7 and 2.6.8 images
(always with 686 smp).

The problem is directly related to acpi and I was using the parameter
"acpi=off" at boot time to solve it.  Today, I recompiled the kernel,
changing as follows:

--- /boot/config-2.6.8-1-686-smp        2004-08-28 13:48:08.000000000 -0300

+# CONFIG_ACPI_ASUS is not set
+# CONFIG_ACPI_TOSHIBA is not set
 # CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG is not set
 CONFIG_ACPI_BUS=y
 CONFIG_ACPI_EC=y

This solved the problem.  The rest of the config file is exactly the same, but
by changing this, I could boot normally without the "acpi=off" parameter.

I'm not sure if it's all or just some of the options that made the real
difference.

This is being tested in an Intel Pentium IV, with Intel Motherboard D865GBF.
I'm attaching my cat /proc/cpuinfo and my lspci just in case you want to know
the exact details of the box.

I can provide extra information if needed.

I hope this helps in fixing the bug.

ahh ups didn't read the hole thread,
it would be great if you tested latest rc from linus.
he has acpi fixes for latest intel boards i guess 2.6.9-rc2
works fine with initial debian config concerning acpi?

This is the dmesg of the recompiled kernel.  I'm sorry for the length of
it, I hope it's useful:

did you try booting with append "acpi=off"?

please send dmesg of 2.6.5
thanks for your feedback.

No. I don't know what apic is. How should I modified the grub menu.lst
to do that? I can probably reboot the machine in a few days to try
that. I've attached a successful 2.6.5 boot dmesg.

apic != acpi
you'll find more about in kernel sources in Documentation/i386/IO-APIC.txt

doesn't grub(8) has a nice man, i don't use it but something like this
should work (make shure to have your correct root partition there):
kernel          /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.8.1-3-686 root=/dev/hda1 ro acpi=off
 
hope that helps, if not you may want to try 2.6.10 from unstable.
best regards

Thanks, I'll give that a try.

And that as well. It will be several days before I can try that as the
machine is now doing something useful.

Here's the failure mode from the 2.6.8 kernel, as best I can copy it

checking if image is in initramfs...it isn't (ungzip failed); looks like an initrd
Freeing initrd memory: 4696k freed
NET: registered protocol family 16
PCI: PCI BIOS revision 2.10, entry at 0xf0031, last bus=1
PCI: Using configuration type 1
mtrr: v2.0 (20020519)
ACPI: Subsystem revision 20040326

So, I'll try your suggestion (acpi=off), but I'd be interested to know
if the real error is the initrd ungzip failure)

I've now tried this. The 2.6.8 kernel boots to completion. However,
something has changed between 2.6.5 and 2.6.8 regarding the handling
of SATA discs. In 2.6.5, the scsi subsystem gets initialised before
all the drives are mounted. This allows my SATA disc to be assigned to
/dev/sda, and also means the fsck stage works (even if all it does is
check the journal counter). Under 2.6.8, the scsi subsystem doesn't
get started, and so the SATA disc doesn't get assigned to /dev/sda,
and the fsck stage drops me to a prompt offering me single user mode.
I attach dmesg outputs demonstrating this. The interesting part of the
2.6.5 log starts at line 173, where it says "SCSI subsystem
initialized". I'm going to continue to use 2.6.8 as I wish to see if
the SATA corruptions under ext3 that I reported with the 2.6.5 kernel
have gone away.

Subject: still a problem with kernel-image-2.6.8-2-686-smp
Date: Sun, 20 Feb 2005 15:37:14 -0800
I also have an Intel Motherboard D865GBF with a P4 w/hyperthreading.
Today I finally decided to try the 2.6.8 kernel and experienced
a kernel boot hang during ACPI detection.

This is a REGRESSION.  I run the 2.6.5 kernel just fine.  I looked at the
bug reports againt 2.6.10 kernel in unstable, but they include reports of
problems with both SMP and RAID (not just XFS, even with EXT3, which I
use), so I don't see that as being an option either, even if I were to put
something from unstable on my system.

I really hope a working kernel gets into sarge.

Package: kernel-image-2.6.8-2-686-smp
Version: 2.6.8-13
Followup-For: Bug #268208

Hi

This is one of a pair of identical sarge production servers installed in
December 2004.  The single processor kernel works fine but at the time
of the original install and this evening, I haven't been able to get the
smp kernel to boot.

Using grub, I select the kernel and it starts to boot but stops
immediately after the line in the subject above.

It would be good to get these servers using both processors ;)

Regards

Clive

I also have the same problem.

My machin (Intel D865PERL mother board and Pentium 4 3E) hangs 
during booting the kernel-image-2.6.8-2-686-smp every time.

When adding boot option "acpi=off" or "acpi=ht", it boots successful.

I have attached the remote console message while failing to boot,
and the output of lspci.

Subject: Kernel from Debian 3.1 no longer supported
Date: Fri, 20 Jun 2008 17:13:13 +0200
Version: 2.6.8-99+rm

You reported a bug against the Linux kernel (version 2.6.8) that was
shipped with Debian 3.1 (sarge).  Since Debian 3.1 is no longer
supported and the kernel has changed so much that it would be very
difficult to verify every outstanding bug from 2.6.8, I'm hereby
closing your bug report.

If you still see this issue with the kernel from the upcoming release
of Debian (lenny, version 5.0), then please me know and I'll be happy
to reopen this bug report.

Thanks.
