Thank you John, I wrote a patch(which is attached to this mail) so that the problem doesn't occur in my environment. This patch changes the meaning of `storm'. But, I think use of the parameter(hw_intr_threshold) to control the detector in this method is clearer than the present method, and it needs no DELAY(1). In the detector to which this patch is applied and compiled with -DHACK2 flag, `storm' is the situation that the number of generated interrupts per unit time(1/hz) is larger than threshold. If kern_intr.c is compiled with -DHACK2 -DHACK3 flags, it works as interrupt rate limiter. What do you think about this method? -- Shunsuke SHINOMIYA <shino_at_fornext.org>
