Hi,
we have a system here were e.g. "sleep 1" will never finish. This is an
issue of 2.6.23, on all older kernel versions it did work fine.
Seems to hang in do_nanosleep()

Any ideas?

Update: Enabling hpet in the bios and setting clocksource=hpet as command
line parameter will fix it, but still its not nice that something that
worked without a problem in 2.6.22 and below suddenly doesn't work in
2.6.23.

Which timer source is in use when the system hangs?

Well, not the systems hangs, only processes running nanosleep. Well, since the
system is booted diskless, one of the very first commands is to
run "/etc/init.d/portmap start", which has a sleep call in its script and so
it will halt the boot process.
The problematic timer source is acpi_pm. Its also interesting that setting the
timer source
via /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/current_clocksource won't
fix that problem. Only the boot option clocksource={other than acpi_pm} does
help.
Thanks,
Bernd

I've created a bugzilla entry for this regression at
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9134
Please add a summary of your observations to it.
Thanks,
Rafael

timer already expired ---------^^^^^^^^^^^^
(~1.2 seconds)
hmm, signedness problem (only in the display) ---------^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Can you please put a complete system description, your .config and a boot
log into bugzilla ?
