Hello Ingo,
for what I can say ... Good Work(tm) !
Hw Cfg:
Tyan Tomcat IIID 2 x Pentium 200 32 Mb EDO RAM 3 ide HDs + 1 ide CDROM (ide0 on INTA, ide1 on INTB) ncr53c810 on PCI Matrox Mystique on PCI Audio Card (aedsp16) on ISA 4 serial ports (3 in use)
Kernel 2.1.84+your patch, SMP=1, booted fine with pirq=0
attached 'lspci -v' output.
I am testing the patch running parallel compilation (make -j2) of egcs source tree, X11 session, xisp, netscape, pine, ICQ (java sdk), timidity (midi to wav conversion and output on /dev/dsp) and 4 xterms. The machine is happily swapping 30 megs but it is still very responsive. I can hear good music (with some hiccups of course when the loaded machine can not cope with 44 Khz output to the sound card), and write this e-mail. Uptime on a plateau of ~ 5.
Here the /proc/interrupts output:
CPU0 CPU1 0: 446885 0 XT PIC timer 1: 12174 10448 IO-APIC keyboard 2: 0 0 XT PIC cascade 3: 228 201 IO-APIC serial 4: 3607 3604 IO-APIC serial 5: 4692 2523 IO-APIC serial 8: 0 0 IO-APIC rtc 10: 44010 43949 IO-APIC MSS audio codec 13: 4 0 XT PIC fpu 14: 807637 758906 IO-APIC ide0 15: 325531 317148 IO-APIC ide1 17: 566 563 IO-APIC ncr53c8xx NMI: 0 IPI: 0
The machine is still crunching the egcs sources and playing music, of course I can not say it is "rock solid" but hearing the disks spinning hard and seeing the uptime reaching peaks of 8, I am impressed of the good response of the shells (and timidity ... it is still playing at 44 Khz) !!
If you need more info, don't hesitate to ask :)
