That fuzzer is running at 57600Hz while the serial port of the fuzzed device is
running twice that rate. The break condition seems to be easy hit by the fuzzer
i've sent in a previous mail.

Mh, but thats not trinity! Havn't tried that but well fuzzing at a different
serial rate than the receiver might be a good idea even if it sounds pretty
stupid.
Attached is the patch for the 3.6.9-rt kernel (but i think this should also
apply
to the "normal" 3.6 i guess). But as Greg already took care of this patch i
guess
that only for convinience. Also it seems as if the patch sent to Greg is
missing the
#include <linux/kdb.h>?
Best regards
