Log file of kernel gpf and lvcreate process stack trace
It's been a week (running the same set of lvcreate's every night) and the problem has not recurred, so perhaps this isn't a new problem in kernel-2.6.22.2-42.fc6 after all, but something obscure and nonreproducible. I'll wait a week longer and see if it recurs or if anyone else reports it happening to them as well. There are some very obscure bugs in the sysfs_hash_and_remove/kref_put code that won't be fully fixed until 2.6.23. Will close this bug, as the fixes are already upstream (and will be in Fedora 8.) The code was completely rewritten to solve this problem. |
