I recently got an Abit BP6 running Dual 466MHz Celerons and have been
experiencing the infamous lockup problem.
It plagued me for a few days so I decided to look into the issue. I
don't have much kernel hacking under my belt yet, but I did come up with
something.
Although the lockups seemed fairly random, I am not so sure that they
were, after some time experiencing them. I will give a brief account of
my research as well as the usual system specs. :)
The machine is as stated above along with 128MB of ECC memory, an 8.7GB
IBM Ultrastar Ultra SCSI drive, a cheap FAST-10 NCR host adapter without
BIOS. Due to this, I have to complicate things and boot from an IDE
drive, a 3.4GB UDMA33 Samsung, and a spare 2.1GB Seagate. The IDE
system is completed with a 36x UDMA33 CDROM drive. The video card is an
Ati 3DXrpression+ with 4MB SGRAM and is PCI. The soundcard is a non PnP
ESS 1688 ISA card, and the modem is a standard ISA 33.6 Texas
Instruments faxmodem. I also have a Hauppauge TV capture card with a
Bt878. I haven't had any issues with my hardware in the past, they were
part of a system running on a K6/233. The case in this system is an
Inwin Q500 full tower with about 3 case fans, so it stays relatively
cool. I have no PCI cards in slot 3 (shared with the HPT366 ATA66
controller) and I have only one card in slot 4 since 4 and 5 share
busmastering. I also do not use the HPT366. I have tried the machine
in a few configurations, also changing memory timings and even removing
processors. The BIOS is the QQ-2 beta, but I have the original factory
BIOS on a disk.
During the lockup, I was in X, typing this exact report, and had XFree86
compiling in an Xterm. More on that in a second. I have locked this
machine up in many cases, twice over telnet only, a few times in the
console, and many times in X. The strange thing is that it always locks
solid at one point in the XFree86 4.0 compilation. I was logging the
"make World" output to a file and this was always the last file to
attempt to be compiled (using some crazy optimization flags too.)

If this is at all related to the BP6 lockups, or is some other odd
bug(?) then I can surely reproduce it basically every time. It happened
with a single processor as well as two, and on both 2.2.14 UP and SMP
kernels, and 2.3.99-pre[1,2,3] UP and SMP.
Also locked solid with Mandrake 7.0 stock kernels. The compiler is gcc
version 2.95.2 19991024 (release) as comes supplied with Mandrake 7.
My first recourse was to implement the %eip logging mechanism. I am not
sure how much info this will provide, however, but at least it is
something. I applied this patch by hand to 2.2.14 from Andrea
Arcangeli's IKD(?) patch for 2.2.12 and wrote the columns down on paper
after the machine locked. I saw CPU0 grind to a halt, and then CPU1
about a second later. I ran objdump on the vmlinux of the IKD enabled
2.2.14 kernel and matched up the first and third columns of output (as
sorted by the second and fourth ones) to the (26MB!) disassembled
vmlinux output. Attached is the result, with the lines marked with a
"*" being what was shown on screen at the time of the lockup. If anyone
needs more info feel free to request it. I have attached a dmesg output
from my current 2.3.99-pre3 kernel for hardware reference. Again, I am
not sure that this is what is causing the lockups on the BP6, but it is
just my best observation at this point. I do not have an oops from the
NMI oopser. The machine was never able to generate an oops after
locking up. If anyone has any ideas or patches please respond. I am
subscribed to both lists, or you can surely email me directly.
I sure hope this helps, and if not, then thanks for your time and
bandwidth. It could just be my imagination. ;)
