Tunnelbroker script

Description of problem:
I use a tunnelbroker for ipv6 and i would test radvd for autoconfig my other computer
When i start radvd or maximum 1 minute later, i have 1 kernel panic (led of keyboard flash)


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.35.11-83.fc14.x86_64 
radvd-1.6-2.fc14.x86_64

How reproducible:
Mount a 6to4 tunnel
start radvd



Actual results:
Kernel panic

Expected results:
When radvd is stop, i have no problem

Additional info:
I suspect a problem in stack ipv6, but i don't now if it's exact ;)

We need to see the panic messages. Can you start the system in text mode and take a picture of the screen with the messages? To do this, edit /etc/grub.conf and remove string "rhgb quiet" from the options for the kernel, and replace with "ignore_loglevel vga=1 3". This will get you a text-mode boot in 50-line mode.

Comment 3 Gaetan Cambier 2011-02-16 18:46:28 UTC
Hello thank you for your response

I have rebooted but when the bug arrived, there is not a kernel panic, but a reboot (nothing on the screen, just a reboot)

For reproduce i have :

start with ignore_loglevel vga=1 3
start my tunnel with my script
start radvd
start fedora 15 kvm (virtual machine) with virsh

from another pc ( physical windows pc), i have connected to fedora 15 (virtual), and i have ping6 ipv6.google.com, immediately my fedora 14 (physical pc) reboot

But a ping6 from my fedora14 to ipv6.google.com work perfectly. 



Sorry for my bad english ;)

Comment 6 Gaetan Cambier 2011-02-17 16:06:55 UTC
I have succes to reprodure kernel panix but with kernel-2.6.35.10-74.fc14.x86_64

Same problem with kernel-2.6.35.11-83.fc14.x86_64  but the computer reboot directly when kernel panic


The kernel panic occurs when send a ping from my virtual machine (fedora15 in kvm) to ipv6.google.com

i have 2 image : when ip6tables start and stop

Can you boot with the option "vga=791" (or even "vga=794" if that works) and capture the output again? We need to see more lines of text...

Comment 8 Gaetan Cambier 2011-02-19 17:44:45 UTC
i have a problem, : with vga=791, my computer reboot immediately on kernel panic

i have tried an hd video, but the screen view is not readable :(

do you have a solution  for suppress the reboot ?

Comment 9 Gaetan Cambier 2011-02-20 21:32:22 UTC
I have also tried Kdump for interfec kernel panic :

When i press alt+sysrq+c --> kdump intercept the kernel panic and write vmcore and dmesg in /var/crash

When i reproduce the bug : the computer reboot  without intercept kernel panic :(

Try vga=1 for 50-line mode

Comment 11 Gaetan Cambier 2011-02-23 19:12:24 UTC
i have already tested this mode : the computer reboot immediately after the kernel panic and id not intercept by kdump :s

in mode vga=0 --> 25 line

I have in the trace many reference of kdump and kexec 
and no reboot in the kexec kernel :s

with th alt-sysrq-c : the computer generate a kernel panic and reboot in the kexec kernel and generate vmcare and dmesg 

It's strange :s

Comment 12 Josh Boyer 2011-09-21 21:05:49 UTC
Does this still happen on the latest f14 kernel?  Also, can you recreate it without using whatever proprietary module you have loaded in the panic in comment #5?

Comment 13 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-16 13:45:32 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained.  At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this 
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen 
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on 
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that 
version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
