I'm having trouble running lsof on 2.6.15.1 when the kernel is
compiled with CONFIG_MK6. When run as root, lsof will segfault, and
when run as a user lsof will hang unkillable.
The same kernel, same machine, but compiled with CONFIG_MK7 runs just
lsof just fine.
some versions:
gcc version 4.0.3 20060104 (prerelease) (Debian 4.0.2-6)
lsof 4.76.dfsg.1-1 List open files.
diff between broken and working (I can send a full .config if needed):

To follow up on this, it appears that things are getting stuck while
reading /proc/*/maps, specifically it hangs in fs/proc/task_mmu.c in
m_start() at down_read(&mm->mmap_sem). The same thing happens when
trying to readlink /proc/*/exe.
I'm really not sure why this lock is getting stuck. Can anyone
reproduce this?

I had this happen earlier today, but at the moment I can't reproduce it.
The offending kernel was 2.6.16-rc3 with CONFIG_MK7=y
I'll post an oops and config if it happens again.

That's creepy. CONFIG_MK6 hardly does anything. The main thing it does is
feed `-march=k6' into the compiler. MK7 uses `-march=athlon'.
Are you able to try a different gcc version?

CONFIG_MK7 results in a bigger L1_CACHE_SHIFT than CONFIG_MK6.
AFAIR it wouldn't be the first time that changing L1_CACHE_SHIFT would
hide a real bug visible with a different L1_CACHE_SHIFT.

hm, OK. Well that's something we can ask Tony to eliminate, by patching
his Kconfig.cpu to make CONFIG_MK6 have the larger L1_CACHE_SHIFT (and/or
vice versa).

Just tested that a few seconds ago, actually.
CONFIG_MK6 with CONFIG_L1_CACHE_SHIFT=6 results in the same crash.
I'm going to twiddle the configs again and see if I can make a
CONFIG_MK7 kernel with -march=k6

And to follow up on this, the bug is present in a kernel built with
CONFIG_MK7 and with the compiler flags switched to "-march=k6".
I suppose that means the bug is at least compiler related. Some
assistance/guidance here would be helpful.
To reiterate what I posted before, the compiler I'm using is straight
out of Debian-unstable, version as follows:
$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: i486-linux-gnu
Configured with: ../src/configure -v --enable-languages=c,c+
+,java,f95,objc,ada,treelang --prefix=/usr --enable-shared --with-
system-zlib --libexecdir=/usr/lib --without-included-gettext --enable-
threads=posix --enable-nls --program-suffix=-4.0 --enable-
__cxa_atexit --enable-clocale=gnu --enable-libstdcxx-debug --enable-
java-awt=gtk-default --enable-gtk-cairo --with-java-home=/usr/lib/jvm/
java-1.4.2-gcj-4.0-1.4.2.0/jre --enable-mpfr --disable-werror --with-
tune=i686 --enable-checking=release i486-linux-gnu
Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.0.3 20060104 (prerelease) (Debian 4.0.2-6)
I also get some oopsing on reboot, which mostly points back to the
functions in procfs that I pointed out in a previous message. I don't
suspect the oops report will be remarkably useful, but I'll paste it
below for the sake of completeness.
