From 17cc56bf00cd028bbfc35a646855024ad710a0f9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior Date: Thu, 9 Apr 2015 15:23:01 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 308/365] cpufreq: drop K8's driver from beeing selected Ralf posted a picture of a backtrace from | powernowk8_target_fn() -> transition_frequency_fidvid() and then at the | end: | 932 policy = cpufreq_cpu_get(smp_processor_id()); | 933 cpufreq_cpu_put(policy); crashing the system on -RT. I assumed that policy was a NULL pointer but was rulled out. Since Ralf can't do any more investigations on this and I have no machine with this, I simply switch it off.
