Subject: kswapd0 oops -> debug information
Date: Sat, 27 Nov 2004 13:11:25 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200411271311.25997.nick@linicks.net> (raw)

Hi all,

I keep getting this oops so randomly, that 'RIGHT, YOU BUGGER' I have 
attempted to supply proper debug info - where I have got is what I learnt 
today, so I am a bit stuck after finding the area of code.

ksymoops provides:

I have traced this code to fs/inode.c.  Producing assembler of inode.c gives 
this (snipped):

__iget:
        pushl %ebx
        movl 8(%esp),%ebx
        movl 28(%ebx),%eax
        testl %eax,%eax
        je .L3337
#APP
        incl 28(%ebx)
#NO_APP
        jmp .L3336
        .p2align 4,,7
.L3337:
#APP
        incl 28(%ebx)
#NO_APP
        testb $15,284(%ebx)
        jne .L3340
        leal 8(%ebx),%edx
        movl 4(%edx),%ecx
        movl 8(%ebx),%eax
        movl %ecx,4(%eax)
        movl %eax,(%ecx)   <===== >>EIP; c0151239 <__iget+29/4c>
        movl inode_in_use,%eax
        movl %edx,4(%eax)
        movl %eax,8(%ebx)
        movl $inode_in_use,4(%edx)
        movl %edx,inode_in_use
.L3340:


Which quiet nicely matches the ksymoops output.  My books tell me the inode.s 
file _should_ give me line numbers in inode.c so I can then locate area of 
code - but I can't see how to match the produced assembler to the C source.

Hope this helps someone - and if you know who to get assembler code to match C 
code via line numbers, I would like to know please.

TIA,

Nick
