[Devel] [Q] ide cdrom in native mode leads to irq storm?

Tue Oct 24 00:37:13 PDT 2006

there is node with Intel 7520-based motherboard (MSI-9136), IDE cdrom (hda) and
SATA disc and 2.6.19-rc3 linux kernel.

When I set IDE controller into the native mode, I get irq storm on the node and
this interrupt is disabled. If this interrupt is shared, the other subsystems
are stop working too.

When I switch the IDE controller into legacy mode, all works correctly.

I've tried to use noapic, acpi=off, pci=routeirq, irqpoll options but it does
not help.

This issue is reproduced on the old kernels (2.6.15-1.2054_FC5smp and latest
RHEL4 kernel) too.

Is it probably a known issue and is there any work-around?

thank you,
