This was never too much of a problem because with 2.6 the latency
wasn't good enough anyway. Now that the 2.6 latency issues are
resolved, it would be very useful to track this bug down.
Hi,
do you know how, in the case of volountary preemption and threaded irq
handlers, the irq's used by X11 are handled? i removed the nvidia module
from my kernelvand rebooted to have it untainted, but of course the X11
nv module does neither report to /proc/interrupts nor /proc/irq. SInce
it is on another bus [agp] i suppose this is no problem but i always
wondered about the interplay of the kernel an X. It looks to me like an
area which might still have some surprises..
