NMI appears to be stuck! (2.4.22-rc2 on dual Athlon)

Hi All!

Still no nmi_watchdog on dual Athlon systems?

Linux version 2.4.22-rc2 on dual

processor : 0
vendor_id : AuthenticAMD
cpu family : 6
model : 6
model name : AMD Athlon(tm) MP 1800+
stepping : 2
cpu MHz : 1533.401
cache size : 256 KB

Total of 2 processors activated (6127.61 BogoMIPS). ENABLING IO-APIC IRQs ..TIMER: vector=0x31 pin1=2 pin2=0 activating NMI Watchdog ... done. testing NMI watchdog ... CPU#0: NMI appears to be stuck! testing the IO APIC....................... .................................... done. Using local APIC timer interrupts. calibrating APIC timer ...


just for curiosity, if I do not give the nmi_watchdog=1
option on the kernel boot line, the nmi seems to work fine?

# cat /proc/interrupts
CPU0 CPU1
0: 4275 2602 IO-APIC-edge timer
1: 0 2 IO-APIC-edge keyboard
2: 0 0 XT-PIC cascade
4: 157 150 IO-APIC-edge serial
8: 1 0 IO-APIC-edge rtc

16: 1195 1155 IO-APIC-level aic7xxx
17: 149 144 IO-APIC-level eth1
19: 1 3 IO-APIC-level eth0
NMI: 4034 3577
LOC: 6782 6777
ERR: 0
MIS: 0

is this intentional, or have I missed something
terrible important? if you need more information,
let me know ...

TIA,
Herbert
