https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=239101 ------- Comment #19 from bernhard.bender@web.de 2007-02-13 11:34 MST ------- You may look here: http://www.sisk.pl/kernel/patches/2.6.20/ACPI-notify-revised.patch
HP nx6125/nx6325/... machines have a _GPE handler with an infinite loop sending Notify() events to different ACPI subsystems.
Notify handler in ACPI driver is a C-routine, which may call ACPI interpreter again to get access to some ACPI variables (acpi_evaluate_xxx). On these HP machines such an evaluation changes state of some variable and lets the loop above break. <<< and here: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5534 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7122 I hope this helps. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
