This sounds like a nice feature. Unfortunately it doesn't compile when you
are building a kernel without module support (CONFIG_MODULES is not set):

Hi Alan,

it seems one call of do_munmap was forgotten:

Adrian-

Maybe you've already fixed it...
Anyway, here's a patch that fixes it.

Alan, Dave-
can you add "kernel/configs.c" to your "dontdiff" list?
Or is there another way that I should handle this generated file?

Thanks,
-- 
~Randy

Thats fine - a large "Automatically generated" banner never hurts

That one actually is from Arjan, based on an earlier patch from
Stephan Springl.

My error - I pulled it because it didnt compile

in fact, you're right. At home, I don't have
this problem on any of my computers (nearly
all have an award bios). One of the two
victims at work was a compaq with a compaq
bios, while a friend's compaq notebook
(armada e500) is unaffected. All tested
hosts have either a 0e or a PNP0f13 entry.

I will dump the bios tomorrow, but I don't
know how pnpbios works (I presume it uses
some protected mode functions of int 15,
but I may be completely wrong). I will
have a great day reading the sources.

Willy

yes, I've seen this. He posted it while I was
reporting mine. I did it randomly to quickly
get a compiled kernel to check for another
unrelated bug so it was just a warning
report anyway.

> Oh, your mailer fscked the patch.

I knew it before the post. I use opera on
yahoo from where I work. Yahoo truncates
lines very shortly, opera cannot send
attachments with this web interface, and I
cannot reliably use other browsers because
of crappy anti-viruses (websweeper...). It
really is a hell on earth, but so ridiculous
that I prefer to laught at it now. I wish I
had a true SMTP access to send standard
posts, believe me !

Willy

Re: Linux 2.4.19pre3-ac2

[willy tarreau]

Hi !

Well, I discovered today that reading /proc/bus/pnp/0e
oopsed on me on 2.4.19p2 with the 2.4.17 pnpbios
patch (+lots of other patches that don't help to
make easy reports). Didn't try without pnpbios yet.
lspnp -v triggers it very easily. 0e is the PS2 port
(PNP0f13). I had this on at least two P3's with
different hardware and bioses.

So I tried plain 2.4.19-pre3-ac2, and now it
reboots immediately. I've tried 3 versions
down to 2.4.10-ac12 which segfaults too.
Other pnp entries can be read perfectly
(can provide dump if it helps).

I will send the ksymoops report from 2.4.19p2
with 2.4.17 pnpbios when I get home (because
I'd like to get a real email client - elm). At least
at the moment, I can resume the end of the
report to this :

>>EIP; 0000879a Before first symbol   <=====
c014daf8 <get_new_inode+48/1a4>
c014dbca <get_new_inode+11a/1a4>
c021aa2c <__pnp_bios_get_dev_node+110/16c>
c0120000 <sys_capset+238/288>
c0120018 <sys_capset+250/288>
c021aa9e <pnp_bios_get_dev_node+16/34>
c021bbe0 <proc_read_node+44/88>
c0156f0a <proc_file_read+f2/1bc>
c0139326 <sys_read+8e/110>
c010744a <tracesys+1e/22>

Please note that it doesn't really affect me
because I don't need pnpbios on these hosts,
but some people may be concerned about the
security risk since the entry is world-readable.
I'm just always trying to build better kernels ;-)

Hope this helps. I'll be able to do more tests
if other people cannot reproduce.

Cheers,
Willy

Hmm, Alan said in another post in this thread that it should be a "1".  I
wonder what'll happen with a "0" there instead...

Oh, your mailer fscked the patch.

Hi Alan,

I cannot compile shm.c unless I apply this
patch. I hope it's correct, I put 0 in the acct
field just because there was 0 at the
do_mmap() line.

I'm really sorry this patch will be mangled
by my mail client here, but it's a one liner,
self-explanatory.

Willy
