Date: Wed, 02 Jul 2003 09:27:42 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <25670000.1057163262@[10.10.2.4]> (raw)

           Summary: cat /proc/buddyinfo + netstat -a kills machine
    Kernel Version: 2.5.73-bk10
            Status: NEW
          Severity: blocking
             Owner: akpm@digeo.com
         Submitter: slpratt@us.ibm.com

Hardware Environment:8way 900Mhz PIII

Problem Description:
on 2.5.73-bk10 as well as 2.5.73-mm3, issuing netsta -a followed by cat
/proc/buddy infor causes segfaults and locks up the system.

Repeated issuing of netstat -a prodices the following trap:
