This was a -mm kernel - how do we know it's not -mm breakage?


It's an educated guess. I suppose it could be -mm breakage.

I sent Andrew a patch which tightens up some debug checking, and
that is likely to be causing your BUGs.

It _appears_ to be mm breakage.  I just built/ran rc1 with the same
config, and it works fine.

RL is calling, so I can't dig right this minute... in a couple hours I
hope to be able to start though.

Before I get to the 'what comes next' compile marathon, any likely
candidates?


rc2-mm1?


(or Nick, do you have the supposed fix handy?)


Yeah, I'm still scratching my head over the mystery fix.



The mm/swap.c hunk from git 8519fb30e438f8088b71a94a7d5a660a814d3872
is the mystery fix (the mm.h hunk is already in there).

I suppose you'd better verify that -mm works fine with the patch as
well, when you get time.

Thanks,
