2.6.11.11 and rsync oops (SATA related?)

[Kalin KOZHUHAROV <kalin@thinrope.net>]

Hi, there.
Long time no posting - didn't have kernel problems for long time :-)

That is why I am still running 2.6.11.11 (2.6.12 elsewhere). Will move
to 2.6.13 soon.

Yesterday just bought a new SATAII drive (Seagate Barracuda 7200.8
ST3300831AS) and while trying to rsync some data from the old drives the
rsync process died with segfault. My SiI3112 controller is not SATAII,
but it should work in SATA mode, have another drive for year+. Looking
at the dmesg I saw 3 oopses (see the shortened .dmesg file). Run the
ksymoops and got some output (see .ksymoops.bz2).

Although it does not seem very related to the drive, that is the only
recent change in hardware, in software: udev . The machine (MB: A7V8X
Deluxe) was working stable for 6 months with a few restarts.

As far as reproducibility goes, apart from those 3 oopses everything is
OK, didn't even have to restart and am now continuing to rsync some
200GB more.

Any ideas as to what caused this?

Kalin.
