Description Ernie Petrides 2005-01-17 21:19:29 EST

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20021003

Description of problem:
The "diskdump for IPF" support patch added in RHEL3 U3 mistakenly
disabled support for panic_on_oops on the ia64 architecture.  I
believe that:

  if (panic_on_oops)
    panic("Fatal exception");

should be added after the call to:

  try_crashdump(regs);

in the ia64 version of die(), which would mirror how x86 and x86_64 work.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.4.21-27.EL

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. invoke code path w/BUG() or cause an oops via /proc/sysrq-trigger (with "c")
2.
3.
  

Actual Results:  oops printed to /var/log/messages, but system keeps running

Expected Results:  system should panic

A fix for this problem has just been committed to the RHEL3 U5
patch pool this afternoon (in kernel version 2.4.21-28.EL).
