Re: [SOLVED] Re: ARAnyM VMs with Debian hanging at 100% CPU usage

Thorsten, I'd very much prefer Debian kernel maintainers would accept patches from the respective architecture maintainers' tree, but that may not come to happen in my lifetime. Probably not. On the other hand, things that don’t get into 3.2-stable won’t end up there either way during the

Re: [SOLVED] Re: ARAnyM VMs with Debian hanging at 100% CPU usage

Thorsten, We can always get it submitted through Geert's tree if that's easier. That's how it has to go, please read Documentation/stable_kernel_rules.txt for how to get patches into the stable tree. Hm, I thought it was submitted to Geert's tree already? I just tried Andreas p

Hi Greg, Greg, can we get the above fix by Andreas into the stable series please? Thorsten tried to send mail to sta...@kernel.org but it got bounced Please use sta...@vger.kernel.org instead. Thanks, I should have thought of that. I must have hit an old version of stable_kernel_

Re: [SOLVED] Re: ARAnyM VMs with Debian hanging at 100% CPU usage

Thorsten, schmitz dixit: Since it does not appear to cause any real harm (presumaby nfeth still works after the message?), I'd leave it. Yes, it works either way. Interrupts are some black magic, and I must admit I don't really understand the impact of the issue even after reading the

Thorsten, Anyway, for convenience: https://www.freewrt.org/~tg/debs68k/dists/cross/built/Pkgs/linux/linux-image-3.2.0-3+m68k.1-atari_3.2.23-1local2_m68k.deb Thanks, that should help some. Amiga and Macintosh users must do that themselves, sorry ;-) That kernel is also stock Debian with only
