Fixed In Version: | kernel-2.6.32-294.el6 | Doc Type: | Bug Fix |
Doc Text: |
When the netconsole module was configured over bridge and the "service network restart" command was executed, a deadlock could occur, resulting in a kernel panic. This was caused by recursive rtnl locking by both bridge and netconsole code during network interface unregistration. With this update, the rtnl lock usage is fixed, and the kernel no longer crashes in this scenario.

Hmm, never mind, 3b410a310b48a8e7de3438957635093596ad5ca5 fixes this bug. If you could still describe the setup used to reproduce this, it would be nice.

It is a plain RHEL system (VM) with kernel 2.6.32-279 and a bridge with one slave device. Do you need more details? (In reply to comment #4) > In what tree can I find this commit? Upstream vanilla, I'm backporting and testing the patch now. > It is a plain RHEL system (VM) with kernel 2.6.32-279 and a bridge with one > slave device. > Do you need more details?

Cannot reproduce; what are the exact steps to reproduce on (pure) RHEL? Any bridges involved, etc.? What kernel version was used to capture the trace in attachment 587619 [details]?
