------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2006-02-12 08:44 ------- Created an attachment (id=7301) --> (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=7301&action=view) Workaround for buggy BIOS (against 2.6.15.4) First take at a workaround. It is enabled by passing an option to the ACPI processor module. This patch tests for the setup of MSR C001_0055h at entering acpi_processor_idle(). I could not make it part of acpi_processor_start() because I dont know how to make the workaround routine run on the correct processor there. Still contains some debugging messages. Currently the workaround is turned on unconditionally when compiling for CONFIG_X86_64; perhaps it should be made configurable (Intel doesnt need it, and maybe there are even BIOSes for AMD processors which get it right on their own). ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
