Summary of problem: - Hardware with Intel ICH7 chipset, and PCI video capture card = Working flawlessly, getting 100+ interrupts per second from /proc/interrupts (units have been in production for 6+ years) - New hardware with Intel ICH9 chipset = getting spurious interrupts (20000+ per second), and these from dmesg at bootup: -------------------------------------- Sep 13 18:49:01 localhost kernel: bttv1: timeout: drop=0 irq=1/1974, risc=36b4301c, bits: VSYNC HSYNC RISCI Sep 13 18:49:01 localhost kernel: bttv1: timeout: drop=0 irq=1/1974, risc=36b4301c, bits: VSYNC HSYNC RISCI Sep 13 18:49:02 localhost kernel: bttv3: timeout: drop=0 irq=3/1806, risc=36818744, bits: VSYNC HSYNC RISCI Sep 13 18:49:03 localhost kernel: bttv3: timeout: drop=0 irq=3/1806, risc=36b3b03c, bits: VSYNC HSYNC RISCI Sep 13 18:49:03 localhost kernel: irq 17: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option) Sep 13 18:49:03 localhost kernel: Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.39.4 #10 Sep 13 18:49:03 localhost kernel: Call Trace: Sep 13 18:49:03 localhost kernel: [<c0471785>] ?

I have updated the BIOS to the latest, and also tried all possible combinations: nosmp, noapic, nolapic, noriqdebug, irqpoll, etc. From the kernel compilation options, I have tried all the things that are related to IRQs and PCI, eg disable MSI, PCIe, ASPM, etc. I end up with the same results. Also upgraded to the lastest kernel 2.6.39.4, and getting the same results. This is driving me insane. I have analysed the dmesg, and I cannot pin point the culprit. But if I pull out the PCI video capture card, then the system behaves well. So, perhaps this is a BUG in the bttv driver with ICH9 chipset?
