Comment 9 Jason Baron 2006-04-19 15:06:02 UTC
committed in stream U4 build 34.19. A test kernel with this patch is available
from http://people.redhat.com/~jbaron/rhel4/ However, there is a *serious* slab
corruption issue with this kernel, and thus it should not be released to
customers under any circumstances. I'll update this bug when the kernel is
stable again.


Comment 11 Jason Baron 2006-04-19 20:05:22 UTC
We've identified the corruption as specfic to x86-64 smp kernel builds 34.16 and
34.17. All other builds are safe for consumption.
