Hi,
I did compile my new kernel 2.4 on a Red Hat 6.0 Linux
system. My Linux System was installed so that it can
boot from a floppy.
So on the boot floppy, I have LILO (On the hard drive,
there's also LILO).
For booting my new kernel (/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.0), I added

802.1Q VLAN is an industry standard that allows you to run multiple

I'm sorry I can't be more descriptive than that, but there aren't any
errors ever displayed. What happened was after about a day of uptime, I
began seeing IO errors when trying to access files. I realized that the
IO errors occurred on any file I had created. I rebooted since the

Hi folks,
In porting our file system to Linux, we discovered a discrepancy in the
old and new method of returning directory entries to programs. This
exists in 2.2.x and 2.4.x kernels (and maybe older ones too?)
fs/readdir.c:filldir(), used by most (?) programs, expects the
directory entry
Can this be confirmed?

There have been a few reports on oopses in smbfs on 2.4 boxes with highmem

The patch replaces the smbfs dir cache code with something based on the

Yes. Formally, there are no problems to send to tcp directly from io space.
But could someone explain me one thing. Does bus-mastering
from io really work? And if it does, is it enough fast?

I have a Matrox G450 and Kernel 2.4.0.
Vesafb works fine, however not matroxfb.
First, matroxfb.o does not exist.
Any other module in the matrox directory doesn't do anything.
strace fbset -s returns -ENOSYS for /dev/fb0, which exists.
Loading matroxfb_base.o crashes the computer immediately.
Reiserfs in linux-2.4.1-pre8 does not properly with the RAID5 code that
is in that kernel. It is easy to get corrupted filesystem on device in
less than 1 minute. Please, do not use it (reiserfs) on RAID5 devices.

setsockopt() is simply a bit more clever extension to ioctl(),

It is prefered for all the operations on sockets,

In the sched_yield benchmark case this is not a problem , because the
threads don't have any memory footprint, all cloned.
The chatroom, I agree with you. However, I assume that these big irons
(8-ways) will be pretty much loaded with at least 1MB cache. Maybe at this
point another cite with an

[Paul Mackerras and linux-ppp added to the cc list]
It seems that the MPPP reconstruction queue got corrupted:
ppp_mp_reconstruct() called kfree_skb(), and within kfree_skb() the call
to skb->destructor() crashed:
skb->destructor was 0x01010101.

is this a bug?
We have a number of machines running 2.4.0 and /proc/meminfo says we're
sharing no memory. top says that also, probably because it just reads
/proc/meminfo, or at least I assume that's how it works.All the
individual procs show the memory they are sharing though.

You might want to rerun the tests with less cache heavy procs. The 2meg
xeons you are using could distort things from what the average linux user
would see (running with 256-512k cache).

Sure, we are measuring that as well.
We are running all these benchmarks and configurations that I mentioned in
my previous message on
1-2-4-6- and 8 way configurations.
We have posted some preliminary results on older kernels on the website:

Might make sense.

Of course it doesn't work. We've performed a software upgrade.

another thing that would be interesting is what is the overhead on UP or
small (2-4 way) SMP machines

Nono, that's not what I
2.4.0 + aic7xxx (http://people.FreeBSD.org/~gibbs/linux/ patch)
+ 2GB RAM (CONFIG_HIGHMEM4G=y, CONFIG_HIGHMEM=y) crashed.
Before the crash, I observed zombie bdflush for some time.
This is the first crash fingerprint in kern.log:
