Are all stacks created with alloc_thread_info? (Except init_stack and the hard/softirq_stacks) This is on i386 and 2.6.10-rc1 I am currently having the problem that sometimes when the kernel trips into kgdb the stackpointer is pointing to memory that wasn't aquired with alloc_thread_info. -- Ake Sandgren, HPC2N, Umea University, S-90187 Umea, Sweden Internet: ake@hpc2n.umu.se Phone: +46 90 7866134 Fax: +46 90 7866126 Mobile: +46 70 7716134 WWW: http://www.hpc2n.umu.se
