Hi!
I get the above oops message (full details below) sometimes when running the
CVS version of "cv", a gtk+ image viewer.
I use kernel 2.6.12.5, but it occured on 2.6.11 that I ran earlier, too.
Unfortunately, it only happens during interactive use (or at least my
simple test scripts were unable to reproduce the behaviour yet).
cv is a perl/gtk script that uses the IO::AIO module. That module starts a
number of threads that basically emulate asynchronous I/O.
The oops happen when cv starts to move files (which it does by fork+exec
of /bin/mv, which is where it oopses). IO::AIO has an pthread_atfork
handler that recreates the aio threads after the fork (but doesn't kill
the threads before the fork). The forked process than does an exec() and
rarely oopses.
So what happens is:
pthread_create (4 or more times)
fork ("main" thread forks)
pthread_create (4 or more times)
exec ("main" thread execs)
... (very rarely oopses)
All in quick successsion.
fs/exec.c:777 is:
593 static inline int de_thread(struct task_struct *tsk)
...
776 if (!thread_group_empty(current))
777 BUG();
778 if (!thread_group_leader(current))
779 BUG();
780 return 0;
2.6.11 oopsed at the same BUG().
The system is an SMP dual opteron in 64 bit mode with gcc-3.3 (I think)
compiled kernel and the nvidia kernel module loaded (but the program only
does X calls, no direct gl access). If wanted, I can probably reproduce
that without the nvidia kernel module loaded.
If any other info is required to fix that bug I'll happily try to find
out or test things.
Thanks!
The complete OOPS is:
