Hello,
While debugging a Linux driver on my ARM platform
(AT91), I switched on the 2.6.22-rc5 kernel. While
reconfiguring it I selected CONFIG_SLUB as a SLAB allocator.
The sd/mmc driver I tried to run is vanilla driver
which never, until now, produces Oops (at91_mci.c).
The oops seems to occur after a page unmapping using
dma_unmap_page() followed by a flush_dcache_page() (in
at91mci_post_dma_read()).
Here is the oops (driver verbose output included to show
pages used for dma sg list) :

Kernel panic - not syncing: Aiee, killing interrupt handler!
Note that when using CONFIG_SLAB the dma mapping adresses are :
dma address = 0x23D8AB68, length = 8
dma address = 0x23D453A0, length = 64
dma address = 0x23D30000, length = 4096
for instance.
and the driver behaves OK (like it behaves until now).
Do you find a reason why I cannot use SLUB ? Did I missed
something or do I use a bad dma_xx or cache flush call in
the driver ?
Thanks, regards,
