Hmm, I don't have the problem when rebooting, just when shutting down with power off. I also have never seen any loop as you describe. > > http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=71800 > > I hadn't attributed this to the watchdog.

All have the watchdog on. I think it's a ACPI interaction problem with watchdog, so depending on your motherborads ACPI implementation you see the error or not, but I'm completely new to SW_WATCHDOG so I can't tell much when and why these irq statistics are generated. Maybe Sean Kelly can tell us how SW_WATCHDOG interacts with ACPI, since I think the problem occurs when the kernel disables ACPI, right?
