Subject: 2.6.18-rc[67] crashes in TCP ack handling
Date: Sun, 17 Sep 2006 00:19:48 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060916221948.GA12421@outpost.ds9a.nl> (raw)

The bad news is that I haven't yet been able to capture traces. 
Once every three days or so I get a crash of 2.6.18-rc[67] which
*probably* end in tcp_ack(), but I don't have the exact dump.

My .config is indeed heavy on TCP congestion stuff:

$ zcat /proc/config.gz | grep -i tcp
CONFIG_INET_TCP_DIAG=y
CONFIG_TCP_CONG_ADVANCED=y
# TCP congestion control
CONFIG_TCP_CONG_BIC=y
CONFIG_TCP_CONG_CUBIC=y
CONFIG_TCP_CONG_WESTWOOD=y
CONFIG_TCP_CONG_HTCP=y
CONFIG_TCP_CONG_HSTCP=y
CONFIG_TCP_CONG_HYBLA=y
CONFIG_TCP_CONG_VEGAS=y
CONFIG_TCP_CONG_SCALABLE=y
CONFIG_TCP_CONG_LP=y
CONFIG_TCP_CONG_VENO=y
CONFIG_IP_VS_PROTO_TCP=y
CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_TCPMSS=m
CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_TCPMSS=y
# CONFIG_NET_TCPPROBE is not set
# CONFIG_ISCSI_TCP is not set
# CONFIG_NFSD_TCP is not set

However, I haven't specifically configured anything.
$ dmesg | grep -i tcp

$ cat ipv4/tcp_congestion_control
lp

I hope to follow up this message with the actual backtrace, but this is
already an heads up. 

Sorry for not yet being able to be more specific.
