2.6.22-rc2-mm1: SLUB-related panic

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

when trying to reproduce a bugreport in bugzilla, I am experiencing panics 
upon boot. The .config which causes this is at [1]

I'd guess that it's some race - I have tried adding a few debug printk()s 
into mm/slub.c for __kmalloc_track_caller() and slab_alloc(), and the 
problem seems to have vanished after this.

The panic happens alternatively on the following two traces:
