Re: 2.6.24-rc2 (esthetic?) regression: auto select interrupt spamsmy logs

Hi Romano,

EC was changed to automatically choose it's working mode (poll vs. interrupt driven).
You see it oscillating between modes because it receives interrupts just after it stops waiting for them.
Please open new bug entry at bugzilla.kernel.org.
Your .config might be usefull.

Thanks,
Alex.

Hi,

After the ACPI changes between 2.6.24-rc1 and -rc2 I have my logs
"spammed" (every 2-3 seconds) by:

[ 423.112903] ACPI: EC: missing IBF_1 confirmations,switch off interrupt mode.
[ 423.113020] ACPI: EC: non-query interrupt received, switching to interrupt mode
[ 426.078972] ACPI: EC: missing IBF_1 confirmations,switch off interrupt mode.
[ 426.079645] ACPI: EC: non-query interrupt received, switching to interrupt mode
[ 426.622773] ACPI: EC: missing IBF_1 confirmations,switch off interrupt mode.
[ 426.622889] ACPI: EC: non-query interrupt received, switching to interrupt mode

It seems that no harm is done, apart (but it could be another thing)
that gnome-panel is much slower on startup.
