Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
With the big patch and ACL locking patch, I have yet to see a crash
running in AP mode. Kernel is compiled UP, voluntary preemption is
enabled, so spinlocks are not noops.
What are you doing when you get crashes? Can you post a clean backtrace? I
can try to reproduce if you can supply the steps.
Can the other project developers do some testing/code review? Maybe we can
get merged small and obvious changes like the ACL locking and anything you
can break out of the big patch? It would be good to move this forward a
bit.
