Just had our first this morning. 2.4.20-ctx16 + odds and sods (some of
which I really should get around to sending to the list).

Hmmn... xxdiff patch-2.4.19ctx-13 patch-2.4.20ctx-16, ruminate and then
examine your marvelous ksymoops output (haven't got round to installing
it hereabouts yet <slaps own wrist> and no, the crash didn't happen on
either of the boxes with serial lines in action). Notice:

and wonder about the validity and possible side effects of the changes
in sys.c's sys_release_ip_info() and sys_assign_ip_info() between ctx14
and ctx15
where:
void sys_release_ip_info (struct task_struct *p)
{
down_write (&uts_sem);
if (p->ip_info != NULL){
p->ip_info->refcount--;
if (p->ip_info->refcount == 0){
// printk ("vfree s_info %d\n",p->pid);
vfree (p->ip_info);
p->ip_info = NULL;
}
}
up_write (&uts_sem);
}
void sys_assign_ip_info (struct task_struct *p)
{
down_write (&uts_sem);
if (p->ip_info != NULL) p->ip_info->refcount++;
up_write (&uts_sem);
}
turns into:
void sys_release_ip_info (struct iproot_info *ip_info)
{
if (ip_info != NULL){
down_write (&uts_sem);
ip_info->refcount--;
if (ip_info->refcount == 0){
// printk ("vfree s_info %d\n",p->pid);
vfree (ip_info);
}
up_write (&uts_sem);
}
}
void sys_assign_ip_info (struct iproot_info *ip_info)
{
if (ip_info != NULL){
down_write (&uts_sem);
ip_info->refcount++;
up_write (&uts_sem);
}
}
What happens when ip_info changes between the first and second lines of
each of these functions (which, without having genned up enough on
ip_info's usage, I presume is possible else why bother with co-opting
uts_sem?)?
