Subject: [2.4.10] /proc freeze during core dump?
Date: Tue, 9 Oct 2001 10:33:59 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20011009103359.F2935@sobolev.does-not-exist.org> (raw)

Yesterday, I was able to observe my machine running 2.4.10 
half-crash while mozilla tried to dump core: Six minutes after 
core.<pid> had been created for the process in question, any process 
trying to read /proc/<pid>/stat (which still existed then; note that 
there was no disk activity at that point) would hang, and was 
apparently unkillable.

There was no ooops or kernel panic in the logs.
