It happened a few days ago on 2.6.0-test10 (I failed to notice because everything seems to work fine). Here is what I have : Badness in local_bh_enable at kernel/softirq.c:121 Call Trace: [] local_bh_enable+0x93/0xa0 [] ppp_async_push+0xbd/0x1b0 [ppp_async] [] ppp_asynctty_wakeup+0x2e/0x70 [ppp_async] [] pty_unthrottle+0x59/0x60 [] check_unthrottle+0x3b/0x40 [] n_tty_flush_buffer+0x13/0x60 [] pty_flush_buffer+0x6d/0x70 [] pty_flush_buffer+0x0/0x70 [] do_tty_hangup+0x4e3/0x580 [] release_dev+0x742/0x780 [] __pagevec_free+0x1c/0x30 [] release_pages+0x7e/0x1a0 [] dput+0x31/0x270 [] tty_release+0x3b/0x90 [] __fput+0x10b/0x120 [] filp_close+0x59/0x90 [] put_files_struct+0x64/0xd0 [] do_exit+0x19f/0x4c0 [] do_group_exit+0x42/0xe0 [] sysenter_past_esp+0x52/0x71 The previous line in my logs was from my TI acx100 wifi card. It runs with the experimental driver from http://acx100.sf.net. So if this oops can be caused by bad driver behaviour, please ignore. I am using ppp with pppoe on a ne2k-pci network board. I have smp (dual-p3) and preemption enabled. The kernel is compiled with gcc 3.3.1-2 from debian sid.
