The real problem is that I'm 100% unfamiliar with kernel debugging tools on AIX.
But, I'll make a guess. If this patch finds it, I'll be surprised. If it doesn't, I'll guess there's an uninitialized mutex, but I'd have to look harder to see if that's detectable.

I can report that the patch does not help klog crashing an AIX 5.1-06 system... In nosing around the crash dump (I'm also unfamiliar with kernel debugging and AFS kernel internals), it does appear that it might be related. Here's a quick postmortem status:


CRASH INFORMATION:
CPU 0 CSA F002FBE0 at time of crash, error code for LEDs: 30000000
pvthread+000480 STACK:
[00009518].simple_lock+000018 ()
[057AE918]rxi_ResetCall+0000EC (30B65474, 00000000)

ok, this screams that a mutex isn't initialized. _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
