What's the correct place for those? do_IRQ()? Or probably some other places also (APIC timer interrupt handler? exception handler?) Unpleasant situation is that the problem is on a production server, which should be operational 24/7 ... However, probably I'll try to install an instrumented kernel in the next kernel upgrade. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFA7oLLsTbPknTfAB4RAhGvAJ9n9246V7cMntgPnwmKBI/pcR0XGACeMnSY fuIaVh1yCssaJC0PWdHd7sE= =/8fI -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
