Subject: 2.4.16 deadlock in kswapd
Date: Mon, 17 Dec 2001 08:55:10 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3C1DF93E.80907@free.fr> (raw)

Hi,
today i was transfering some files between two drives(reiserfs->ext3) and
suddenly everything locked up. I sys-rqed to show the executed IP and
every five times i've tryed it was showing the following stack trace:

EIP: 0010:[<c0111657>] CPU: 0 EFLAGS: 00200202    Tainted: P

The interesting thing is that i don't have any swap, so i'm really 
interested
in knowing why kswapd is envolved here.
Feel free to ask additionnal informations.

PS: the kernel is tainted by lm_sensors
