All, 

Really stumped on this one: even after recent updates, we are unable to do a 
smooth software reboot; see a deadman timeout and CPU panic, followed by a core 
dump. Immediately thereafter, the machine _does_ reboot itself. Hmmm.... 

The machine has recently been upgraded to prestable-a1; prestable_a2 is next. 
Prestable seems to have addressed the interrupt storm issue on this SandyBridge 
machine; vmstat 5 interrupt counts have dropped to < 1k from 7+ _million_. So 
far, so good. But now we can't get past the reboot issue. 

There may still be a timing issue after all - we are able to take the machine 
down occasionally with parallel gcc builds. Anyone have any suggestions/inputs 
on this? 

Regards, 

Lou Picciano
