The config, full bootlog and bzImage can be found at: http://redhat.com/~mingo/misc/config-Fri_Jun_20_11_19_25_CEST_2008.bad http://redhat.com/~mingo/misc/log-Fri_Jun_20_11_19_25_CEST_2008.bad http://redhat.com/~mingo/misc/bzImage-Fri_Jun_20_11_19_25_CEST_2008.bad (more info about the system on request.) NOTE, this is with the following boot parameters: maxcpus=1 nosmp no_hz=off highres=0 nmi_watchdog=0 noapic nolapic_timer hpet=disable idle=mwait idle=poll highmem=512m nopat notsc acpi=off pci=nomsi the bzImage i've uploaded adds most of those boot parameters automatically. These boot parameters worked fine in the past. given that it involves acpi_rtc_init:acpi_rtc_init(), one suspect would be this change: | commit e1094bfa26e5e94af2fea79e004614dbce42b008 | Author: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@...el.com> | Date: Wed May 14 11:32:59 2008 +0800 | | ACPI: Disable Fixed_RTC event when installing RTC handler given that it's not bisectable, i can only "slow-test" any patch: i.e. i can apply any patch and report whether the spinlock corruption has occured after 2 days of continuous testing.
