I added dump_stack and some printk in host kernel. The following is what
I got when sys_reboot in host kernel is called, the first line is
printing the process state and ptrace state and pid of the calling
process. the following is the call path.

Well, it's a BUG_ON. It's supposed to be for something that "can't happen".
That's why it's a sanity check, not a wild assertion. ;-)

When PTRACE_O_TRACEEXEC is used, a ptrace call to fetch the registers at
the PTRACE_EVENT_EXEC stop (PTRACE_PEEKUSR) will oops in CHECK_FULL_REGS.
With recent versions, "gdb --args /bin/sh -c 'exec /bin/true'" and "run" at
the (gdb) prompt is sufficient to produce this. I also have written an

This restores the CHECK_FULL_REGS sanity check to every place that can
access the nonvolatile GPRs for ptrace. This is already done for
native-bitwidth PTRACE_PEEKUSR, but was omitted for many other cases
(32-bit ptrace, PTRACE_GETREGS, etc.); I think there may have been more
uniform checks

I think something similar was already committed in revision

Yes, hopefully the kprobes people will chime in here sometime and
merge those as well, or just ack them and I can change the code.
Thanks.

Hi Randy,
I got this when building my markers (which looks alike your kprobes):
ld: samples/built-in.o: No such file: No such file
This patch will set the correct bits to turn on Aggressive
Link Power Management (ALPM) for the ahci driver. This
will cause the controller and disk to negotiate a lower
power state for the link when there is no activity (see
the AHCI 1.x spec for details). This feature is mutually
exclusive

Signed-off-by:
Device Initiated Power Management, which is defined
in SATA 2.5 can be enabled for disks which support it.
This patch enables DIPM when the user sets the link
power management policy to "min_power".
Additionally, libata drivers can define a function
(enable_pm) that will perform hardware
Here's a set of patches which implement link power management for SATA.
We had talked at kernel summit of moving sysfs interface for setting
the link power management policy to the block layer, but after a
lot of consideration, I think this doesn't make sense. Mainly because
I feel for SATA the

Hi all,
I'm getting little confused by some ignore_int (null interrupt handler) code in
head.S. Code notifies the user about the unknown raised interrupt by below
string:
int_msg:
.asciz "Unknown interrupt or fault at EIP %p %p %p\n"
and prints it using below code path:
ignore_int:

I test with lockdep all the time. The problem was that lockdep doesn't
I'm seeing lockdep warning about a potential lock inversion between

Unfortunately the basis for the warning appears to be the behaviour in
ext3(???). AFAICS there is no way for NFS to share an inode->i_mutex
with ext3. What to do?
