We recently saw this oops on a 2.6.17.6 machine (dual
Xeon, e1000, 3ware 9xxx disk controllers):

the corresponding code is:

        movl    12(%edx), %eax  # <variable>.saddr, <variable>.saddr
        movl    (%esi), %ecx    # <variable>.src.s_addr, <variable>.src.s_addr
        testb   $8, %bl         #, <variable>.invflags
        movl    8(%esi), %edx   # <variable>.smsk.s_addr, <variable>.smsk.s_addr
        je      .L18            #,
        andl    %edx, %eax      # <variable>.smsk.s_addr, <variable>.saddr
        cmpl    %ecx, %eax      # <variable>.src.s_addr, <variable>.saddr

This looks rather like the report in,
    http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/7/25/88
though the generated code is slightly different.

This has only happened once so far, so I'm not (yet) aware
of any way to reproduce it. Unfortunately I don't have a
copy of the iptables rules themselves at the time of the
crash -- on that system they're created dynamically and
the specific setup doesn't survive a reboot.

There didn't seem to be any resolution of the report of a
similar problem from July; any advice would be
appreciated. I'm not on the list so please cc replies if
possible.
