Experienced the following oops while working on the subway. Ethernet address with static IP was activated, but I had no network connectivity. Doing an fsck on the main filesystem revealed no problems. The ntpd line and all of the kernel lines were all generated within one second of each other. uname -a says: Linux diet-anarchy 2.6.20-1.2962.fc6 #1 SMP Tue Jun 19 19:27:14 EDT 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux ntpd[4554]: frequency initialized 36.943 PPM from /var/lib/ntp/drift kernel: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000005d kernel: printing eip: kernel: c047ed14 kernel: *pde = 1bd03067 kernel: Oops: 0000 [#1] kernel: SMP kernel: last sysfs file: /block/hda/hda1/stat kernel: Modules linked in: ohci1394 ieee1394 button i915 drm autofs4 nf_conntrack_netbios_ns ipt _REJECT nf_conntrack_ipv4 xt_state nf_conntrack nfnetlink iptable_filter ip_tables ip6t_REJECT xt_tcpudp ip6table_filter ip6_ tables x_tables dm_mirror dm_multipath dm_mod video sbs i2c_ec dock battery asus_acpi backlight ac ipv6 parport_pc lp parport joydev snd_intel8x0m snd_intel8x0 snd_ac97_codec ac97_bus snd_seq_dummy snd_seq_oss snd_seq_midi_event ide_cd snd_seq 8139to o cdrom 8139cp snd_seq_device mii snd_pcm_oss snd_mixer_oss i2c_i801 snd_pcm i2c_core iTCO_wdt iTCO_vendor_support snd_timer snd soundcore pcspkr snd_page_alloc serio_raw ata_piix libata sd_mod scsi_mod ext3 jbd ehci_hcd ohci_hcd uhci_hcd kernel: CPU: 0 kernel: EIP: 0060:[<c047ed14>] Not tainted VLI kernel: EFLAGS: 00210202 (2.6.20-1.2962.fc6 #1) kernel: EIP is at time_out_leases+0x33/0x45 kernel: eax: c0007b34 ebx: 00000025 ecx: e870376c edx: ec15c000 kernel: esi: c0007bf8 edi: 00000000 ebp: e870376c esp: ec15ce7c kernel: ds: 007b es: 007b ss: 0068 kernel: Process ntpd (pid: 4554, ti=ec15c000 task=d1e1adb0 task.ti=ec15c000) kernel: Stack: 00000000 00000001 c047fb87 00000001 c0007b34 c0007b34 00000000 c04c9103 kernel: 00000000 c070ce40 ee936bc6 ec15cf30 c0478a53 c0007b34 00000001 00000000 kernel: ec15cf30 c0479a67 ec15cf30 ec15cf30 e1610628 ffffff9c 00000000 ec15cf30 kernel: Call Trace: kernel: [<c047fb87>] __break_lease+0x55/0x2a9 kernel: [<c04c9103>] selinux_inode_permission+0x9e/0xa3 kernel: [<ee936bc6>] ext3_permission+0x0/0xa [ext3] kernel: [<c0478a53>] permission+0xc8/0xdb kernel: [<c0479a67>] may_open+0x11e/0x1fe kernel: [<c047b99c>] open_namei+0x27a/0x596 kernel: [<c0471291>] do_filp_open+0x25/0x39 kernel: [<c047105f>] get_unused_fd+0xb3/0xbd kernel: [<c04712e7>] do_sys_open+0x42/0xbe kernel: [<c047139c>] sys_open+0x1c/0x1e kernel: [<c0403f64>] syscall_call+0x7/0xb kernel: [<c0620033>] rt_mutex_lock_interruptible+0x37/0x4e kernel: ======================= kernel: Code: eb 23 8b 4b 50 85 c9 74 09 a1 00 bc 73 c0 39 c8 79 04 89 de eb 0f 83 e2 ef 89 f0 e 8 d4 fe ff ff 3b 1e 0f 44 f3 8b 1e 85 db 74 0f <f6> 43 38 20 74 09 0f b6 53 39 f6 c2 10 75 c8 5b 5e c3 53 89 c3 kernel: EIP: [<c047ed14>] time_out_leases+0x33/0x45 SS:ESP 0068:ec15ce7c
(This is a mass-update to all current FC6 kernel bugs in NEW state) Hello, I'm reviewing this bug list as part of the kernel bug triage project, an attempt to isolate current bugs in the Fedora kernel. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/KernelBugTriage I am CC'ing myself to this bug, however this version of Fedora is no longer maintained. Please attempt to reproduce this bug with a current version of Fedora (presently Fedora 8). If the bug no longer exists, please close the bug or I'll do so in a few days if there is no further information lodged. Thanks for using Fedora!
I haven't experienced an oops with this particular trace with Fedora 8, though I have reported other oopses in separate bugs. I'm beginning to suspect there might be a general problem when I suspend/hibernate which results in a variety of kernel crashes. (See bug 428329.)
Fedora apologizes that these issues have not been resolved yet. We're sorry it's taken so long for your bug to be properly triaged and acted on. We appreciate the time you took to report this issue and want to make sure no important bugs slip through the cracks. If you're currently running a version of Fedora Core between 1 and 6, please note that Fedora no longer maintains these releases. We strongly encourage you to upgrade to a current Fedora release. In order to refocus our efforts as a project we are flagging all of the open bugs for releases which are no longer maintained and closing them. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/LifeCycle/EOL If this bug is still open against Fedora Core 1 through 6, thirty days from now, it will be closed 'WONTFIX'. If you can reporduce this bug in the latest Fedora version, please change to the respective version. If you are unable to do this, please add a comment to this bug requesting the change. Thanks for your help, and we apologize again that we haven't handled these issues to this point. The process we are following is outlined here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/F9CleanUp We will be following the process here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping to ensure this doesn't happen again. And if you'd like to join the bug triage team to help make things better, check out http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers
This bug is open for a Fedora version that is no longer maintained and will not be fixed by Fedora. Therefore we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen thus bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
