Comment 7 Pete Zaitcev 2005-10-24 22:00:20 UTC
I am very sorry to report, but this appears to be a regression in the
fix I made for the bug 135583. It is obvious that we have to undo those.
To compensate, I added the spinlock around the call to remove_wait_queue.


Comment 13 Pete Zaitcev 2005-10-26 00:01:25 UTC
A test kernel is available at this URL:
 ftp://people.redhat.com/zaitcev/171129
I need this tested on rx5670.


Comment 14 Lonni J Friedman 2005-10-27 14:31:04 UTC
Pete,
Can you also post a kernel-source RPM for the test kernel?  The kernel-source
RPM is required to use the nvidia driver.

Thanks,
Lonni

Comment 15 Pete Zaitcev 2005-10-27 16:30:15 UTC
SRPM and kernel-source are uploaded.


Comment 16 Lonni J Friedman 2005-10-27 17:05:34 UTC
Thanks, could you also post the kernel-source RPM for x86_64?  That's where I'm
seeing this problem.

Comment 17 Lonni J Friedman 2005-10-27 17:49:30 UTC
Nevermind, I see that the i386 kernel-source RPM works just as well in x86_64. 
Thanks.

Comment 18 Lonni J Friedman 2005-10-27 18:19:53 UTC
Actually, I take that back, I can't build/install the nvidia driver in an x86_64
environment if I install the i386 kernel source RPM.  

Pete, can you please post the x86_64 kernel-source RPM as well?

thanks!

Comment 21 Lonni J Friedman 2005-10-30 06:10:18 UTC
In my testing this kernel resolves the USB crash.  Thanks.

Comment 38 Ernie Petrides 2005-11-30 07:34:45 UTC
A fix for this problem has just been committed to the RHEL3 U7
patch pool this evening (in kernel version 2.4.21-37.12.EL).
