microcode issues on VIA C-7

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

Fedora ships a udev rule for automatic microcode loading. It seems that this causes a weird looping on an HP mini 2133 (VIA C-7 processor). modprobe returns "No such device" as the system does not support microcode loading but when you listen to events with

udevadm monitor

there's an infinite loop of "/module/microcode" ADD/REMOVE. So microcode_ctl is nearly always running according to top, hogging the machine.

Do you have any idea what can cause this? Here's the udev rule:

KERNEL=="cpu[0-9]*", ACTION=="add", RUN+="/sbin/modprobe microcode"
KERNEL=="microcode", ACTION=="add", RUN+="/sbin/microcode_ctl -Qu"

The kernel is 2.6.37.
