please try adding "nmi_watchdog=1" as well Unfortunately I have no luck enabling NMI watched. Got message that local APIC
is enabled but no message about testing NMI and NMI interrupt count was 0.
(tried 2.4.9-31 & 2.4.18-3 from RedHat and also "myself" 2.4.18).
Here is a sample dmesg:

The behaviour of readprofile dit not changed (exactly same as described above).
At least I tried to recompile readprofile with debug info -g. Please see further
attachments.
Created attachment 61925 [details]
gdb session of crashed readprofile (with debug info)
Created attachment 61926 [details]
map file of my 2.4.18 kernel, that causes readprofile crash.
Created attachment 61928 [details]
patch to catch corrupted map file
Added patch, that catches buffer overrun in while loop. But not yet sure what is the real problem. Maybe - readprofile does not deal with functions in modules (they seem to not be in /boot/System.map - possible cause of readprofile crash?) Also - empty output for 2.4.18-3 kernel is still mysterious. Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem persists. The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/ |
