Hello,
system hang when monitor interface is enabled/disabled should be fixed
thanks
to the 3 patches in attachment:
07-fix_procfs_handling.patch
08-enable_error_traces.patch
09-fix_system_hang_when_deleting_monitor.patch
It should be applied after original Debian's patches and it has been tested
on Linux 3.14.
Regards,
Mickael
fix kernel crash/system hang because of incorrect pointer argument use while
retrieving cookie in procfs handling.
based on: http://ix.io/9DV
tested on: kernel 3.14
