(I'm not subscribed to linux-kernel currently, please Cc: me any replies.)
I recently upgraded from 2.5.75 (which I felt did not have good interactive
response in some circumstances compared to 2.4.21) to 2.6.0-test4. (In
all cases, Linus trees, unpatched.)
However, 2.6.0-test4 locks up hard just after loading the PS/2 mouse stuff.
Unfortunately none the boot messages make it to disk since I don't get far
enough in the boot process for syslog to turn on.
The only change I think could be significant over my 2.5.75 configuration
is that I enabled tagged command queuing for IDA (and I get a message that
it's enabled during boot - I have an IBM disk.)
Here's the output of lspci (after booting with 2.4.21):

I just removed TCQ from my IDE setup, and I still lock up during boot. The
last message displayed is:
mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice
The numlock comes on, and then I'm locked up hard, for instance, I cannot
turn off the numlock at this point.
One thing that I would note is that I don't have anything plugged into my
PS2/2 port since I have a USB mouse. (A Kensington Model# MOSUU B, that
works fine in 2.4.x, FWIW.) Please advise if there is more debugging that
I can try.
Thanks,
Dale

Are you able to plug any PS/2 devices into the machine, see if that makes a
difference?
Also it would be useful to add the option "initcall_debug" to the kernel
boot command line. Then you will see a bunch of messages of the form
calling initcall 0xNNNNNNNN
Please look up the final address in the System.map file from the 2.6 build.
This will give us an idea of what the machine was trying to do when it
died.

Yes, plugging in a PS/2 mouse in addition to the USB mouse does allow the
machine to boot up. (Just tried it, thanks for the suggestion.)

It was in "i8042_init". Thanks again for the help.

OK, don't go away yet ;)
Could you please add this patch and see how far it gets? If you're keen,
keep adding more DB() statements, narrow it down further?

It made it to line 853, and the loop ran four times. No other "DB" ever
printed anything, so I guess it locked up inside i8042_init_mux_values when
i = 3.

I'd be more suspecting that it got through that loop and locked up in
i8042_check_mux() or i8042_check_aux().
Can you try this one please?

(I hadn't noticed the call to i8042_check_mux inside the if statement
condition after the loop, doh!)
> Can you try this one please?
Yes, this time it did this loop 4 times:
for (i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
DB();
i8042_init_mux_values(i8042_mux_values + i, i8042_mux_port + i, i);
}
And then I got one more at 590, inside i8042_check_mux:
DB();
if (request_irq(values->irq, i8042_interrupt, SA_SHIRQ,
"i8042", i8042_request_irq_cookie))
return -1;
DB();
This last one did not show up, nor did any inside the conditional loops at
line 878 or 883, nor at line 888. So perhaps it was in request_irq that it
locked up?
I'll be away from this machine for the day, although I can try something
new this evening.
Take care,
Dale

I had exactly the same problems. However, adding pci=noacpi to kernel
boot command line fixes the problem.

Looks like it. Please add a DB() to the start of i8042_interrupt(),
see if we locked up in an interrupt storm. Also sprinkle some in
request_irq() I guess. You know the deal ;)
There's an ugly in the irq code there: if i8042_check_mux() or
i8042_check_mux() are called while the device is open we end up freeing the
wrong IRQ. It is unlikely to help though.

I have similar issue with:
floppy_init()
floppy_grab_irq_and_dma()
fd_request_irq()
request_irq()
floppy_hardint()
...
floppy_hardint()
This causes interrupt storm, hanging the machine on bootup. Booting with
pci=noacpi fixes this. So, I'm assuming acpi pci irq routing problem.
This is irq 6, which ACPI is disabling. Perhaps disabling leaves it in
a bogus state?
thanks,

I believe this is what's happening - i8042_interrupt is getting called at a
very fast rate and we never do anything else. (I suppose that's the
definition of an interrupt storm - this is my first foray into kernel
programming aside from fixing compiler errors.)
As others have suggested, booting with "pci=noacpi" fixes the problem.
(Leaving the debug statement in there, I'd estimate that i8042_interrupt
gets called at about 25 times a second - about a screenfull a second or
so.)
So, anyone else with this problem can plug in a PS/2 mouse or boot with
"pci=noacpi" to work around it.
The last thing I would mention is that 2.5.75 ran fine on this machine, so
I guess this problem has crept in since then.

I did apply this patch, and it did not visibly help.
Thanks for the help, let me know if you'd like me to try anything else.
Take care,
