Okay, this must have changed somewhat recently. When last I spoke to Alan
Cox (the maintainer of the 2.2.x code), I told him (and he agreed) that
this code should be marked EXPERIMENTAL. If it's not marked thus in
2.2.18pre21, then it's an error and should be corrected ASAP.

Alan, this is identical to the patch that was in patch-2.3.10 of Jul 5 1999

Hi,
I have just compiled Linux 2.2.18 (UP) and Linux 2.4.0-test12 (SMP,
devfs), and in each case I compiled the msr and cpuid drivers as

I got oopses from both 2.2.18 and 2.4.0-test12. Neither the msr.o nor
the cpuid.o modules

Some people report it can corrupt your data, another that it

Hi,
Have you tried setting MPS to 1.1 in your bios (instead of 1.4)?
This seems to be needed for 2.2.x kernels but not 2.4.x.

Note that kernel compilation really isn't a very relevant benchmark,
because percentage differences in this range can be basically just noise:
things like driver version differences that show

Results for SMP 2.2.18 vs SMP 2.4.0-test12 are in.
I repeated my earlier tests on a much faster dual P-III machine.

what mobo/chipset are you using? i and a bunch of other people have
been having very similar problems with this and the 2.4.0-test kernels.
we all use the tyan tiger 133 mobo with the apollo pro 133a chipset. i
believe that the 2.2.18 usb support has been pulled from the 2.4.0-test
source, so i
