Hi team, I'm recently running into HPMC bus timeout problem. While this never caused any problem before, I've noticed a few strange things. I've attached the output I get from "pim hpmc" in the PDC. This BUS timeout occurs after one or two days of idling when I plug a specific card reader in the USB PCI card I plugged in. I think this card reader causes problems because it's being polled every 2-3 seconds. Nevertheless, looking at the pdc output, it seems that the OS HPMC handler is not kicking off according to the chassis code CBF2 and CBFC. CBF2 : bas OS HPMC len CBFC : OS HPMC br err I've check GR02 and it points to inw() which makes sens. Nothing interesting there. The failing device appears to be the built-in NIC according the path provided in the output (10/0/12/0) and the C3600 service manual (figure 5-2). Even if this look HW pb, I've had a few reports recently about HPMC PCI timeout issues and I have a few doubts. Now my questions are : - does this look like an HW or SW problems ? - why isn't the HPMC handler kicked off ? - could the HPMC handler recover this ? - what debug can I enable to get more info about this if applicable ? Cheers, Guy
