Hi,
Last night my production server crashed. I've enclosed the Oops report and
I tried to run it through ksymoops, but it would not handle the report for
some reason. However, the function names are included, and I disassembled
the Code: section already. The problem at first glance is in
fs/buffer.c/find_candidate. I looked at the assembly produced by gcc for
that function, and it does not match the disassembly in the code block.
When I disassemble the Code: section I get:
pushl %ebp
movl %esp,%ebp
movl %ebp,%esp
popl %ebp
ret
But, I can not see anything like that fragment in the disassembly of
find_candidate. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know. I hope this
helps.
Kernel 2.0.38 compiled with gcc 2.7.2 and binutils 2.9.1.0.19
