Subject: Kmemcheck issue

Hi,

      I  am  trying to   run  Kmemcheck on   a  Cortex ( ARM-v7)
board  running  Linux 2.6.30.9

At boot-up time,  as  soon  as  Timer-device is  enabled,   I  find
that   timer  gets  disabled  because  system
gets spurious  interrupts  on  that  irq  line.


PID hash table entries: 1024 (order: 10, 4096 bytes)
Linux System timer initialize
irq 23: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)

Later,  when  calibrating delay  loop,  the system is hung  as timer
is not working.

The problem happens  even if  I  set kmemcheck_enabled = 0 at  boot.
( I also commented out     pagetable_init(&meminfo)  ).

 If  you have seen this before,  please let me know.

( I know that  your patch was written for   ARM v6.     My cpu is
Cortex .    I am aware that  I may have to make some change in the
 instruction simulation handling. )

Thanks
