Hi Andrew,
This patch in 2.6.13-rc5-mm1:
slab-leak-detector-give-longer-traces.patch
Causes the kernel to die with an oops on my test box during boot (see
attached), just about here, I think:
static void inline *
cache_alloc_debugcheck_after(kmem_cache_t *cachep,
unsigned int __nocast flags, void *objp, void *caller)
{
if (!objp)
return objp;
if (cachep->flags & SLAB_POISON) {
#ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC
if ((cachep->objsize % PAGE_SIZE) == 0 && OFF_SLAB(cachep))
kernel_map_pages(virt_to_page(objp), cachep->objsize/PAGE_SIZE, 1);
else
check_poison_obj(cachep, objp);
#else
check_poison_obj(cachep, objp);
#endif
poison_obj(cachep, objp, POISON_INUSE);
}
if (cachep->flags & SLAB_STORE_USER) {
*dbg_userword1(cachep, objp) = caller; /* address(0) */
*dbg_userword2(cachep, objp) = __builtin_return_address(1);
---> *dbg_userword3(cachep, objp) = __builtin_return_address(2);
}
Shortly after the call instruction to dbg_userword3().
Repealing that patch permits the kernel to work again.
