Try to capture the panic via serial console. Otherwise a picture would give us a first hint. Please watch out for lines like skb_(over|under)_panic. gw6c is a tunnel client? Can you post ip -6 tunnel ls? (Also please send networking bugs to netdev@). Greetings, Hannes ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

Assuming you meant "show [NAME]" (no "ls" option for the tunnel object), that yields the following with "gw6c" running on a 3.11.0 kernel: smirkin:~# ip -6 tunnel show sit1 sit1: any/ipv6 remote 4056:5874:: local 4500:0:0:4000:4029:: encaplimit 0 hoplimit 0 tclass 0x00 flowlabel 0x00000 (flowinfo 0x00000000) I'm running the gw6c client in gateway mode: the Alpha is my IPv6 gateway/firewall. --Bob ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

Update: no significant change for 3.12.0-rc7. Can still reliably panic the system by running "gw6c" to set up the IPv6 tunnel. Here's a hand- transcribed backtrace: I hope it's sufficient... I would have included the stack/register dump, but about half of it had scrolled off the top of the screen. skb_copy_and_csum_bits+0x88/0x380 icmp_glue_bits+0x48/0xce0 __ip_append_data+0x8f4/0xb40 ip_append_data+0xb0/0x130 icmp_glue_bits+0x0/0xe0 icmp_glue_bits+0x0/0xe0 (yes: repeated once) icmp_push_reply+0x6c/0x190 icmp_send+0x3fc/0x4c0 ip_local_deliver_finish+0x20c/0x2e0 ip_rcv_finish+0x1d8/0x3d0 nf_ct_attach+0x32/0x40 ip_rcv_finish_0x148/0x3d0 __netif_receive_skb_core+0x27c/0x890 process_backlog+0xb8/0x1a0 net_rx_action+0xc8/0x210 __do_softirq+0x1a0/0x230 do_softirq+0x5c/0x70 irq_exit+0x68/0x80 handle_irq+0x90/0xf0 miata_srm_device_interrupt+0x30/0x50 do_entInt+0x1cc/0x1f0 __do_fault+0x3e0/0x5e0 ret_from_sys_call+0x0/0x10 entMM+0x9c/0xc0 do_page_fault+0x0/0x500 do_page_fault+0x48/0x500 entMM+0x9c/0xc0 filp_close+0x6c/0xe0 filp_close+0x98/0xe0 filp_close+0x6c/0xe0 filp_close+0x98/0xe0 __close_fd+0xb8/0xe0 Code: 44640003 e4600010 203ffff2 a77de680 b67e0010 47f10410 <b0340000> 47ff0411 --Bob ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
