Hi, I setup an asterisk system (asterisk 1.8-rc3, dahdi-linux-2.4.0 with dahdi-extra from Tzafrirs git, kernel 2.6.35.4). The hardware is an older pc system with Celeron CPU (2.5 GHz) with a Beronet BN4S0 ISDN card. The system starts without any errors.
I discovered a severe issue. The kernel panics on a very small load. The first call normally gets through. If I start the second or third call and sometimes when I terminate the first call, the system panics (Oops text on console). After solving some difficulties (the relevant part of the Oops text scrolls out of the monitor, no serial interface), I get the text via netconsole. It seems to me, that the panic occurred in oslec (function "oslec_update"). But maybe I am wrong with this. In the oslec code there is a patch to enable MMX. After switching this off, the problem disappeared. AFAIK the cpu supports mmx. Where should I address this issue to? Is it a known issue? Here comes one example for the oops: /----- BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) IP: [<c0103dd6>] __math_state_restore+0x56/0x90 *pde = 00000000 Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP last sysfs file: /sys/module/configfs/initstate Modules linked in: netconsole configfs dahdi_echocan_oslec echo capifs loop wcb4xxp rtc_cmos i2c_i801 rtc_core dahdi 8250_pnp 8139too floppy 8250 rtc_lib mii serial_core i2c_core processor pcspkr rng_core button ide_pci_generic ide_core sd_mod crc_t10dif thermal [last unloaded: netconsole] Pid: 1268, comm: clip.agi Not tainted 2.6.35.4 #1 P4Dual-915GL/P4Dual-915GL EIP: 0060:[<c0103dd6>] EFLAGS: 00010046 CPU: 0 EIP is at __math_state_restore+0x56/0x90 EAX: 00000000 EBX: c5b20000 ECX: cd461960 EDX: ffffffff ESI: cd461960 EDI: c01045a0 EBP: 00000080 ESP: c5b21cb0 DS: 007b ES: 007b FS: 00d8 GS: 00e0 SS: 0068 Process clip.agi (pid: 1268, ti=c5b20000 task=cd461960 task.ti=c5b20000) Stack: c5b21cd0 00000027 c01045a0 c01045e5 00000200 00000000 cfadd500 c0432273 <0> cfadd500 cfadd200 00000008 00000027 00000080 00000080 cf33fa00 0000007b <0> 0000007b c02d00d8 000000e0 ffffffff d0ae2153 00000060 00010002 0000005a Call Trace: [<c01045a0>] ? do_device_not_available+0x0/0x60 [<c01045e5>] ? do_device_not_available+0x45/0x60 [<c0432273>] ? error_code+0x73/0x80 [<c02d00d8>] ?
