The scheduler on Andreas Friedrich's hyperthreading system stopped working properly: the scheduler would never move tasks to another CPU! The lask known working kernel was 2.6.8. After a couple of attempts to corner the bug, the following smoking gun was found: BIOS reported wrong ACPI idfor the processor CPU#1: set_cpus_allowed(), swapper:1, 3 -> 2 [<c0103bbe>] show_trace_log_lvl+0x34/0x4a [<c0103ceb>] show_trace+0x2c/0x2e [<c01045f8>] dump_stack+0x2b/0x2d [<c0116a77>] set_cpus_allowed+0x52/0xec [<c0101d86>] cpu_idle_wait+0x2e/0x100 [<c0259c57>] acpi_processor_power_exit+0x45/0x58 [<c0259752>] acpi_processor_remove+0x46/0xea [<c025c6fb>] acpi_start_single_object+0x47/0x54 [<c025cee5>] acpi_bus_register_driver+0xa4/0xd3 [<c04ab2d7>] acpi_processor_init+0x57/0x77 [<c01004d7>] init+0x146/0x2fd [<c0103a87>] kernel_thread_helper+0x7/0x10 a quick look at cpu_idle_wait() shows how broken that code is on i386: it changes the init task's affinity map but never restores it ... and because all userspace tasks get forked by init, they all inherited that single-CPU affinity mask. x86_64 cloned this bug too.
