Hi, 

For some days I have been looking for the bug that causes an easily 
reproducible oops in the guest 
when I apply my PAE support _draft_ patch (appended at the end of this mail) to 
lguest. 

This is the oops: 

Setting kernel variables...done.
Will now mount local filesystems:.
Will now activate swapfile swap:done.
Cleaning /tmp...

and looking for the NULL dereference, it seems to be in __unlazy_fpu


# gdb -q vmlinux

(gdb) list *0xc0101f6e
0xc0101f6e is in __switch_to 
(/usr/src/linux-2.6/arch/x86/include/asm/i387.h:273).

274                     __save_init_fpu(tsk);
275                     stts();
276             } else
277                     tsk->fpu_counter = 0;




This oops disappears when I use    no387   and   nofxsr    guest kernel 
parameters in lguest command invocation




Now, this is only happening with my PAE patch applied, so I assume that my code 
is broken. 
But these seems to be the same symptoms discussed in this thread:

http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0806.2/0787.html


So I thought that maybe you can help me with some hints.

I really appreciate your help,
Matias



Here is my patch:
