Hi, The following bug exists in 2.6.32-rc* also. > ------------[ cut here ]------------ > Kernel BUG at 000003e00429d934 [verbose debug info unavailable] > fixpoint divide exception: 0009 [#1] SMP Please find the patch which solves the following 'fixpoint divide exception'. I tested the same and not seeing any KERNEL BUG/exception. I created the patch from 2.6.32-rc6 code. Thanks and Regards R.Nageswara Sastry Though the 'sbi->s_log_groups_per_flex' contains valid data after the shift operation 'groups_per_flex' is becoming zero, which later used as a divisor. groups_per_flex = 1 << sbi->s_log_groups_per_flex Signed-off-by: Nageswara R Sastry
