Description James Puthukattukaran 2006-03-15 19:57:53 UTC
Description of problem:


The CORE2 from the test suite causes a panic. We have seen it on the 1GB and 4GB
configurations on the Sun Andromeda platform. It looks like the system runs out
of memory and many of the processes are spinning on the lru_lock waiting for
free memory to be available. The system log output is attached. I have the crash
dump and the requisite system map and vmlinux files. Unfortunately, I cannot put
it down as an attachment. Please provide me a place and I can upload it there.


How reproducible:

Just run the redhat certification for some time and it panics

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start the CORE2 test
2.Wait till the system crashes
3.
  
Actual results:

Panic occurs

Expected results:

Test should pass as it does sometimes

Additional info:

crash-dump.tgz file attached

Comment 3 Rob Landry 2008-07-17 22:03:13 UTC
rhr2 has been deprecated, closing these remaining bugs as WONTFIX.  Future bugs
against the "hts" test suite should be opened agains the "Red Hat Hardware
Certification Program" product selecting either "Test Suite (harness)" or "Test
Suite (tests)" components.
