So, I've added WARN_ON(irqs_disabled()) in various spots in the audit_syscall_exit path all the way up to the path_put in audit_free_names() that ends up triggering this and prior to Oops'ing, I don't see anything. Post oops, I get lots of messages like: ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: at kernel/auditsc.c:1021 audit_free_names+0xb0/0xdb() Pid: 3981, comm: python2.6 Tainted: G D W 3.2.5-at17-ganetixenu #31 Call Trace: [<ffffffff81693483>] ? audit_free_names+0xb0/0xdb [<ffffffff8105f405>] warn_slowpath_common+0x75/0xb0 [<ffffffff8105f535>] warn_slowpath_null+0x15/0x20 [<ffffffff81693483>] audit_free_names+0xb0/0xdb [<ffffffff810ac629>] audit_syscall_exit+0x139/0x1e0 [<ffffffff8169fd6a>] sysexit_audit+0x21/0x5f ---[ end trace ec7a15dbe40eaf1d ]--- ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: at kernel/auditsc.c:1021 audit_free_names+0xb0/0xdb() Pid: 3981, comm: python2.6 Tainted: G D W 3.2.5-at17-ganetixenu #31 Call Trace: [<ffffffff81693483>] ? audit_free_names+0xb0/0xdb [<ffffffff8105f405>] warn_slowpath_common+0x75/0xb0 [<ffffffff8105f535>] warn_slowpath_null+0x15/0x20 [<ffffffff81693483>] audit_free_names+0xb0/0xdb [<ffffffff810ac629>] audit_syscall_exit+0x139/0x1e0 [<ffffffff8169fd6a>] sysexit_audit+0x21/0x5f ---[ end trace ec7a15dbe40eaf1e ]--- where that python command is a python par file that may be doing some funny unlinking as well.
