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.
