Will,

Ok, I found the two bugs you ran into. I also found
a third one somewhat similar.

Could you try the attached patch on top of what
you have?

I will check all the copy_from/to() tomorrow.

Thanks.

Have you tried running the examples without the kernel module installed? I think that one of the tracebacks in the earlier email was due to that. Like the following:

Dec 20 10:39:01 trek kernel: Call Trace:

I tried the patch. Things are still not working on the p6 machine with the module installed. for "./task_smpl ls". The associated kernel backtrace:
