Package: linux-image-2.6-iop32x Version: 2.6.22+11 User: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Usertags: eabi Severity: wishlist
After running for a mere 20 hours, /proc/cpu/alignment reports millions of misaligned word accesses from the kernel: $ cat /proc/cpu/alignment User: 0 System: 2765980 Skipped: 0 Half: 0 Word: 2765980 DWord: 0 Multi: 0 User faults: 0 (ignored) I gather this has a performance penalty, as misaligned kernel memory accesses are always trapped and fixed up. None or the other EABI kernels I am running exhibits the same behaviour: Angstrom's 2.6.20-rc1-h1940 reports 3 system-word alignment fixups in 30 days; Angstrom's 2.6.23 running Angstrom GPE reports 9 user-word fixups in 12 days a Debian-armel system with custom kernel reports no misalignments in 9 days. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
