Kernel Panic

Comment 2 Erik A. Espinoza 2005-11-01 00:10:39 UTC

Built vanilla 2.6.14 using kernel-2.6.14-x86_64-smp.config of
kernel-2.6.13-1.1526_FC4.src.rpm. Machine is working fine. Looks like problem
has been fixed upstream.

Comment 3 Erik A. Espinoza 2005-11-02 00:32:18 UTC

After stress testing the system with kernel 2.6.14, we have had no issues. This
vanilla was built using the smp config from kernel-2.6.13-1.1526_FC4.src.rpm on
x86_64 platform.

I tested kernel-smp-2.6.14-1.1633_FC4 from the testing branch and all looks
good. The system runs stable and under heavy load. However there is a call trace
that happens during shutdown when the system is unmounting nfs directories. This
only shows on the kernel-smp-2.6.14-1.1633_FC4 kernel, and not the vanilla.

Badness in interruptible_sleep_on_timeout at kernel/sched.c:3403 (Not tainted)
