Date: Tue, 29 Mar 2011 00:09:40 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110329040939.GA32764@redhat.com> (raw)

Running a kernel that I built from a git pull from this afternoon,
I ran a barrage of stress tests, including some of the new syscall fuzzing
work that I've been working on.  Everything seemed just fine, except that
after I had stopped running everything, loadavg was still at 6, with
top showing kworker processes running at high % of cpu.

I ran perf top, and got this ..

it smells like something got corrupted, but I'm not sure where
to start.  I've got a bunch of debug options turned on, but nothing
else triggered, so I've got nothing other than this oops to go on.

Any thoughts ?
