Does this problem still occur with 5.3-RELEASE or 5-STABLE? Also, when this happens, do either of IRQ0 or IRQ8 stop interrupting (the counts in vmstat -i stop going up)? -- John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org> <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve" = http://www.FreeBSD.org State Changed From-To: open->feedback Hello, Is the problem still there on recent FreeBSD versions? Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-i386->remko Grab the PR State Changed From-To: feedback->closed feedback timeout I seem to be experiencing the same problem on: FreeBSD heerold.raad.tartu.ee 5.5-RELEASE-p8 FreeBSD 5.5-RELEASE-p8 #1: Sun Oct 15 20:44:45 EEST 2006 toomas@heerold.raad.tartu.ee:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/HEEROLD i386 In the output of 'vmstat -i' display, the counter of irq0 keeps increasing, but counter of irq8 has stopped. This is on IBM xSeries 225 (Type 8647) server with two CPUs, SMP enabled in kernel. The server has been running FreeBSD 5 since October 2004 and I only experienced the problem first time today. Last week I updated the server's BIOS to latest version (1.51A). It is possible that some relevant BIOS setting got changed during the update. |
While compiling world and kernel and doing a lot of data manipulating in ImageMagick with big highres maps I tried to use 'systat 1 -vmstat'. After a while of showing only the unfilled 'formula' of the systat screen systat exits with a error: "The alternate systemclock has died. Reverting to "pigs" display". System is a SMP machine with PREEMPTION and SCVHED_4BSD enabled in kernel, based on a ASUS CUR-DSL main PCB with two P3 866 Mhz, both enabled. I append dmesg output.
