Hi Zhen-Hua, I tested your patch and found two problems. [1] Kenel panic occurs during 2nd kernel boot. ..TIMER: vector=0x30 apic1=0 pin1=2 apic2=-1 pin2=-1 Kernel panic - not syncing: timer doesn't work through Interrupt-remapped IO-APIC CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 3.18.0 #25 Hardware name: FUJITSU-SV PRIMERGY BX920 S2/D3030, BIOS 080015 Rev.3D81.3030 02/10/2012 0000000000000002 ffff880036167d08 ffffffff815b1c6a 0000000000000000 ffffffff817f7670 ffff880036167d88 ffffffff815b19f1 0000000000000008 ffff880036167d98 ffff880036167d38 ffffffff810a5d2f ffff880036167d98 Call Trace: [<ffffffff815b1c6a>] dump_stack+0x48/0x5e [<ffffffff815b19f1>] panic+0xbb/0x1fa [<ffffffff810a5d2f>] ? vprintk_default+0x1f/0x30 [<ffffffff814c6a6c>] panic_if_irq_remap+0x1c/0x20 [<ffffffff81b53985>] check_timer+0x1e7/0x5ed [<ffffffff8129bd9d>] ? radix_tree_lookup+0xd/0x10 [<ffffffff81b5413b>] setup_IO_APIC+0x261/0x292 [<ffffffff81b50302>] native_smp_prepare_cpus+0x214/0x25d [<ffffffff81b41c65>] kernel_init_freeable+0x1dc/0x28c [<ffffffff815aaf00>] ? rest_init+0x80/0x80 [<ffffffff815aaf0e>] kernel_init+0xe/0xf0 [<ffffffff815b5d2c>] ret_from_fork+0x7c/0xb0 [<ffffffff815aaf00>] ? rest_init+0x80/0x80 ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: timer doesn't work through Interrupt-remapped IO-APIC This panic seems to be related to unflushed cache.
