Hi all,
There seems to be a major problem with the promise drivers. It is detected and seems to work, but there is a very large number of interrupts being generated:
adamm@polaris:/proc$ cat interrupts CPU0 CPU1 0: 2727665 2683676 IO-APIC-edge timer 1: 1 1 IO-APIC-edge keyboard 2: 0 0 XT-PIC cascade 5: 1137650 1130539 IO-APIC-level eth0 7: 0 0 IO-APIC-edge soundblaster 8: 1812 1790 IO-APIC-edge rtc 9: 711977 709641 IO-APIC-level sym53c8xx, eth1 10: 2097584287 2097514818 IO-APIC-level ide2, ide3 NMI: 0 0 LOC: 5411428 5411427 ERR: 0 MIS: 3013
adamm@polaris:/proc$ uptime 12:57:30 up 15:01, 1 user, load average: 0.36, 0.35, 0.40
Or a staggering ~40000 interrupts per second!
This is a dual PPro machine and it is using 30% cpu time just to handle the interrupts.
Anyone know what is going on?
Thanks, Adam
