I'm going to twiddle the configs again and see if I can make a
CONFIG_MK7 kernel with -march=k6
And to follow up on this, the bug is present in a kernel built with
CONFIG_MK7 and with the compiler flags switched to "-march=k6".
I suppose that means the bug is at least compiler related. Some
assistance/guidance here would be helpful.
To reiterate what I posted before, the compiler I'm using is straight
out of Debian-unstable, version as follows:
$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: i486-linux-gnu
Configured with: ../src/configure -v --enable-languages=c,c+
+,java,f95,objc,ada,treelang --prefix=/usr --enable-shared --with-
system-zlib --libexecdir=/usr/lib --without-included-gettext --enable-
threads=posix --enable-nls --program-suffix=-4.0 --enable-
__cxa_atexit --enable-clocale=gnu --enable-libstdcxx-debug --enable-
java-awt=gtk-default --enable-gtk-cairo --with-java-home=/usr/lib/jvm/
java-1.4.2-gcj-4.0-1.4.2.0/jre --enable-mpfr --disable-werror --with-
tune=i686 --enable-checking=release i486-linux-gnu
Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.0.3 20060104 (prerelease) (Debian 4.0.2-6)
I also get some oopsing on reboot, which mostly points back to the
functions in procfs that I pointed out in a previous message. I don't
suspect the oops report will be remarkably useful, but I'll paste it
below for the sake of completeness.
