When I was fixing sparc32 SMP in 2.2, I only had access to one cpu and machine type (viking supersparc on 4m/690). As such it tends to be stable :) ftoomsh# uptime 3:01am up 99 days, 13:59, 31 users, load average: 1.42, 1.38, 1.36 ftoomsh# cat /proc/cpuinfo cpu : Texas Instruments, Inc. - SuperSparc 50 fpu : SuperSparc on-chip FPU promlib : Version 3 Revision 2 prom : 2.14 type : sun4m ncpus probed : 4 ncpus active : 4 Cpu0Bogo : 49.86 Cpu1Bogo : 49.97 Cpu2Bogo : 49.97 Cpu3Bogo : 49.97 MMU type : TI Viking/MXCC contexts : 65536 CPU0 : online CPU1 : online CPU2 : online CPU3 : online There are too many things to fix in 2.2 (that I am fixing in 2.4) so random lockups are no surprise to me. 2.4 should be ready for sparc32 real soon.
