Here are some results from the bisect:
The metric I used to mark a revision as good/bad was
$ time for ((i =0; i < 100; i++)); do
cat /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp > /dev/null;
done
The bad ones take forever, i never even finished one bad run. The good
ones take about half a second.
When I checked out revisions v2.6.29-148-g33526a5 and
v2.6.29-159-g8a3f257, it took almost 2 secons to run the command, so I
think some of the latency my have been introduced around these. Yet, I
still marked them as good.
The resut was:
478c6a43fcbc6c11609f8cee7c7b57223907754f is first bad commit
witch is a merge. I am out of ideas...
I forgot to ask, am I the only one experiencing this? I am using a
TravelMate 4000 with the intel graphics chip, can anyone reproduce this?
If no one can reproduce this, I can still test a vanilla kernel to
remove TOI from the equation!
