ACPI and/or bce(4) problem with 2.11.0.673.g0d557 on HP DL380 G6
0%
Description
I got a standard HP Proliant DL380 G6 server with a built-in quad broadcom NIC.
2.10 didn't have the updated bcn drivers, so I installed the 2.11.0.673 snapshot
to get connectivity.
First, the ACPI error (also present in 2.10):
[ACPI Debug] String [0xB] "_TMP Method"
This message repeats 60 times every 10 minutes. I have no idea what it means,
googling for it only points me at a NetBSD discussion from 2009.
Secondly, the bcn driver (or perhaps atapci?):

swi_cambio 267762 4
swi_vm 0 0
swi_taskq/swi_mp_taskq 25 0
Total 2295396926 39911
The weird part is that I dont have any ATA devices in use, there's only a CD-
rom. bcn1 isnt configured or marked up, only bcn0 is in use.
The deal breaker here is that I can't do anything disk intensive without getting
a crash. I tried updating pkgsrc yesterday, and here are two examples:
- Signal 10
Stop in /usr.
[snip]
Bus error (core dumped)
- Error code 1
Stop in /usr.
[snip]
While getting these errors messages like this flooded dmesg:

I'm not familiar with debugging this, so please let me know if you need more
info. I can also put the server in the DMZ and give a developer SSH access if
needed.

I forgot to mention that there is a Raritan KVM attached wich emulates storage
devices (for mounting ISO's etc via the KVM client). Could this be the cause of
the atapci interrupts?

Update: the interrupt storm went away after disabling S-ATA in the BIOS.

Update2: The interrupt storm came back on irq16/bce0 after doing heavy downloads
via git.

Update3: Disabling ACPI in the boot loader made it even worse, now the NIC won't
come up (getting "bce0: Watchdog timeout occured, resetting!" repeatedly in the
console).
