The do_SAK() function is called from within interrupt context.
It acquires several process-level spinlocks. This can deadlock.
It is fairly trivial for an unprivileged user to deliberately
deadlock the kernel of a system which has SAK enabled.
So this patch moves do_SAK() into process context.

Thanks for verifying these bugs ;)
The interrupt checker checks for inconsistent interrupt states. For
example, if a function has one exit point with interrupt disabled, and
another exit point with interrupt enabled, the checker will report an
error

Sounds like the only thing you haven't swapped out of your machine is the
ram/cpu.
It could very well be your ram (I don't suspect the cpu). If you can, try a

No, I tried both SMP and non-SMP version of kernel, the machine is however
single processor Athlon 900. CONFIG_ACPI is not set,
I did link the usr/include/scsi to usr/srs/linux/include/scsi
isn't that the right way for compiling the new kernel?

The problem:
When both nls_iso8859_8 and nls_cp1255 are compiled into the kernel
(=Y), init_nls_iso8859_8() is called before init_nls_cp1255() - this
causes iso_8859_8 to call request_module() which obviously fails.

You can't delete it. You can unlink it, but the file itself remains
Hi Albert.

Exactly why? Mere missing features don't make for a required
upgrade. Version number inflation should be resisted.

Sounds like the only thing you haven't swapped out of your machine is the
ram/cpu.
It could very well be your ram (I don't suspect the cpu). If you can, try a
different stick of ram.

I've found a good exercise for exercising memory faults is to recompile
the kernel with a -j16 flag; and in a second virtual console, do something

I can't find the chip's datasheet. CMD only gives it to direct customers.
I do have the datasheet for the CMD-646U, a prior UDMA supporting chip.

Your reporting is a little misleading here.
Thanks for verifying these bugs ;)
The interrupt checker checks for inconsistent interrupt states. For
example, if a function has one exit point with interrupt disabled, and
another exit point with interrupt enabled, the checker will report an

Hi!
Here is the latest preemptible kernel patch. It's much cleaner and
smaller than previous versions, so I've appended it to this mail. This
patch is against 2.4.2, although it's not intended for 2.4. I'd like
comments from anyone interested in a low-latency Linux kernel solution

Hallo,
I didn't see a maintainer for the /proc filesystem, to I send this mail to
linux-kernel for discussion.
At present the idle value in /proc/uptime is only the idle time for the first
processor. With 2.4, processes seam "stickier" for my, and e.g "yes
/dev/null" on an otherwise idle

akpm, were you looking at this?
I'm planning on poking through everything which has been
identified as a posible problem. But I won't start for
several weeks - give the maintainers (if any) time to
address these things.
So.. please go ahead
The do_SAK() function is called from within interrupt context.
It acquires several process-level spinlocks. This can deadlock.
It is fairly trivial for an unprivileged user to deliberately
deadlock the kernel of a system which has SAK enabled.
So this patch moves do_SAK() into process context.
