Subject: looking for help tracing oops
Date: Fri, 02 Sep 2005 22:25:40 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <431925C4.60509@nortel.com> (raw)


I'm debugging a problem.  Unfortunately, I have a module loaded that 
taints the kernel.

Now that that's out of the way, if anyone is still willing to help, the 
oops is below, along with the disassembly of filp_close().  One thing I 
don't understand--the function makes calls to other functions including 
printk(), but I don't see those calls listed in the disassembly.

I'm seeing the problem with both 2.6.9 and 2.6.10.  The kernels have 
been modified as well, and I'm trying to track down where the problem is 
coming from--the kernel mods or the non-GPL module.

Any ideas?

Chris
