OOPS when copying data from local to an external drive (ieee1394)

[Dmitry Torokhov]

Hi,

I started getting oopses when cpying data from local IDE to an external
Firewire drive. Not always, but quite often. The kernel is a bk pull a
day before 2.6.4-rc2 was released, I do not see any ieee1394 updates
since.

Unfortunately the oops was not saves in the logs, so here is what I managed
to write down:

Oops: 00002 [#1]
PREEMPT
CPU: 0
EIP: 0060 [<c0243d087>] Tainted: P
EFLAGS: 00010047

Call trace:

do_softirq

common_interrupt
acpi_process_idle
default_idle
rest_init
default_init

unknown_bootparam

Code: ...
Kernel panic: Fatal exception in interrupt
In interrupt handler - not synching


This OOPS is with NVIDIA module loaded but I have seen exactly the
same trace without the module loaded.
