This problem isn't new (I think it is even buried in kernel bugzilla).

PROBLEM: kernel lockup while changing TC rules

[Jan 'yanek' Bortl]

Hi,

I have found this problem with today's git (2.6.25-00000-ge4c576b) and 2.6.25:

Network configuration:

+--------+         vlan20 +---------+ vlan80
| laptop |----------------| router  |-----
+--------+                +---------+ 
laptop has address 192.168.243.10

Reproduce HOWTO:

1. run http://ya.bofh.cz/archive/kernel-2.6-htbcrash/init.sh
2. start packet generator on laptop (any traffic targetted to router's vlan80)
3. run http://ya.bofh.cz/archive/kernel-2.6-htbcrash/crash.sh

Then machine lockup and afterwhile print these messages:

Does this mean the bug triggers in 2.6.25 and later, but not in 2.6.24?
If so, is it possible to reproduce this e.g. with 2.6.25-rc6?

Very nice description and logs, but alas I'm not able to test it, so
a few questions:

- there are quite a lot of networking modules loaded like bonding or
ifb: are there some other scripts (especially with virtual devices)?
- could you send vlan and routing rules on this router?
- does it always break with the same traces?

Thanks,
Jarek P.

I firstly discovered this on 2.6.22-6~bpo40+1 (debian's backports), but I'm 
not sure if that was same thing (it is long ago).

Now i tested on test machine with these kernels:
2.6.24, 2.6.24.6 
(http://ya.bofh.cz/archive/kernel-2.6-htbcrash/2/netconsole-2.6.24.6-slon.txt), 
2.6.25

I can test anything you want.

I kicked them out now (ifb, vlan, bonding). Problem persist.

Yes.

Great! I really appreciate! You're very helpful in catching this rare
bug. Alas, there is still nothing obvious at least to me, so I need
more time for any idea...

BTW, one little doubt: are you really sure vanilla 2.6.24 (without .6
etc.) gives the same? (There were some changes backported from 2.6.25
which I'd like to exclude.)

Here is a suspect #1. (BTW, this place reminds me something...)

Great! Seems to solve my problem. I'll do some tests.
