In response to Scott Long <scottl@samsco.org>: > > Corrected patch is at: > > http://people.freebsd.org/~scottl/usb_fastintr_RELENG_6.diff I have a Dell 1950 here that's been dedicated to helping solve this problem. I can reliably reproduce the watchdog timeout by doing the following steps: 1) Mount /usr/src via nfs 2) start a -j99 buildworld 3) On a different terminal, do tar czvf /usr/src/temp.tgz /big/directory Usually only takes a few minutes before a watchdog occurs, and I have no more networking. Your patch applied cleanly, and everything built OK. The results are: a) My USB keyboard stopped working :( b) The problem does _not_ improve. In my case, it's a bce driver that's doing it. I also have some em cards in this machine that I can test if the information will be helpful. This is quite a show-stopper for us, if there's any other testing/etc I can do, _please_ let me know. I might even be able to get remote console access to this machine approved for a developer. -- Bill Moran Collaborative Fusion Inc. **************************************************************** IMPORTANT: This message contains confidential information and is intended only for the individual named.
