Hi Stephen,

I'm seeing an early oops in current Linus -git right after sky2_probe
unfortunately it scrolls away too fast to get it all, but after a
delayed-printk boot it appears to be a NULL dereference in
pci_vpd_truncate.  sysfs also features prominantly in the backtrace..
is this a known issue?

I see there were some sky2 patches this cycle using the vpd functions,
any pointers/patches to try out?

Harvey

Yeah there's a patch for that in my queue (not pushed to Linus yet
though), subject "[PATCH] PCI: Fix oops in pci_vpd_truncate" from Anton
Vorontsov.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jbarnes/pci-2.6.git.
It'll be in my for-linus branch as soon as I push it out later today.
I'll probably ask Linus to pick it up later this week.

I still have the revert - can i revert the revert from -tip now, 
it's all fixed in .30-rc1, right?

Yeah Linus pulled the fix, hopefully Harvey can confirm that things are
working now.

Well, now I'm hitting the invalid module format problem that seems to
have hit some others...so it's made it past the sky2 bits at least.

Rather busy right now, just checking in every few days with mainline
to see what's (still) broken. ;)
