Tested rhel 5.2 beta on intel tiger box with 16 logical cpus, the script works just fine. Tested upstream 2.6.25-rc3 on Hitachi Coldfusion 4s4u with 16 logical cpus, the script does trigger some kernel problems..., So I believe this problem should be relating to particular things in the the Hitachi Coldfusion box.., and it is still not fixed in upstream.. it is root-casued as a firmware problem, please check your firmware update.. But I have updated the fireware to FW_04-21_03-34 before I report the bug. If fw_04-21_03-34 doesn't work, please ask for newer update.. Anyway, this sounds more like a firmware problem, (not kernel problem). |
Description of problem: "CPU hotplug" lead to cpu deadlock,then system exception crash. We offline the logical CPUs, then online the logical CPUs, it will cause system deadlock and crash. Platform: Hitachi, with 2 Montvale CPUs. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. run the following script. typeset -i num_cpus=`cat /proc/cpuinfo| grep "^processor"| wc -l` typeset -i loop=1 while [ $loop -lt $num_cpus ];do typeset -i online=`cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$loop/online` if [ $online -eq 1 ];then echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$loop/online fi loop=$loop+1 done loop=1 while [ $loop -lt $num_cpus ];do typeset -i online=`cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$loop/online` if [ $online -eq 0 ];then echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$loop/online fi loop=$loop+1 done 2. 3. Actual results: The system will exception crash. with the dmesg information as following. BUG: soft lockup - CPU#3 stuck for 10s!
