I don't think the commit message does this bug justice. The implication is it's just a guest issue. It isn't, the bug appears to take out the host kernel in a truely spectacular way. http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/build/result.php?type=boot&idx=4871 Tested here, the fix stops the host kernel exploding. The crashed kvm instance can be stopped and a proper kernel can then be booted in a new guest instance. -- FTTC broadband for 0.8mile line: currently at 10.5Mbps down 400kbps up according to speedtest.net. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
