In both cases on my boxes everything is working, but that's not unexpected because of the way my code works (it dynamically detects a change in configuration in that if it tries to open the I2c bus when there's a configuration file for devices on it, and it fails, it will try again in a few seconds -- and if you remove the config then it will shut down the I/O path in a short while and stop.) On the units that exhibit the problem the load average is 1.0 + whatever is real *and* the crazy interrupt rate is present.=C2=A0 On the ones that= are not neither is the case; the native and real load average is present and the interrupt rate is normal. In the case of the unit that the problem showed up on and then disappeared, however, while there's an I2c config defined there's no device connected to it on my bench. But I suspect this is something banging the interrupts on the CPU that is not attached to anything in the code, and the reason I suspect that is that on a given boot it either happens or not, and if it does then nothing I can do will make it stop -- and likewise, nothing I can do will make it start if it doesn't on boot.=C2=A0 That implies that whateve= r it is it's not code-specific nor .ko-loaded specific either, in that if it was related specifically to an I2c device being talked to actively then when I killed the code that was using I2c or booted without the device connected (or never started the code that attempted to probe the bus and attach to the device in question) it wouldn't do it at all -- but that's not true. The one that stopped doing it I then attached both an I2c device that it was looking for and also connected a "modem-style" device (which caused umodem.ko to autoload, as expected) and it came up as well, without a problem -- and without triggering the mad interrupt storm. --=20 Karl Denninger karl@denninger.net <mailto:karl@denninger.net> /The Market Ticker/ /[S/MIME encrypted email preferred]/
