When it locks up I get the following message in the syslog

"Sep 6 07:55:42 venom kernel: INFO: rcu_sched_state detected stalls on CPUs/tasks: { 7} (detected by 4, t=1322 jiffies)"

I look at the NMI backtrace for CPU 7 for the offending application and I see this "Sep 6 07:55:42 venom kernel: Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.35-gentoo-r3 #1 0XDN97/PowerEdge R610"

Is CPU 7 (core 4 on CPU2) going bad?

What else should I be looking for?

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks,
Carl

Hi !

I've the same problem since 5 days. I'm trying to find the problem and it seems related to the kernel.
I'm using:
Code:
Linux Zentoo-1 2.6.35-zen2 #7 ZEN SMP Fri Oct 15 00:50:37 CEST 2010 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 920 @ 2.67GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux


Which kernel version do you have ?

When i'm looking for the frequency of the freeze, i get this:
Code:
grep "rcu_sched_state" /var/log/messages

I was using gentoo-sources 2.6.35-r4 at the time.

I downgraded to a 2.6.34 kernel and the issue went away.

I am unsure if further revisions of gentoo-sources 2.6.35 (ie. r10) have resolved the issue. It may have, but because this is a production server, I can't take the risk right this minute with further downtime.

I currently run 2.6.34-r11.
