Hi,
I received the following oops when using the loop driver on kernel
2.4.2-pre2 patched with Jens Axboe's loop4 patch. I believe it occurs
because in loop.c, lo->lo_tsk is only assigned to by the loop thread when
it starts up but it is possible for block requests to be sent to the
loop drivers before this happens.
ksymoops 2.3.7 on i486 2.4.2-pre2-loop4. Options used
-V (default)
-k /proc/ksyms (default)
-l /proc/modules (default)
-o /lib/modules/2.4.2-pre2-loop4/ (default)
-m /boot/System.map-2.4.2-pre2-loop4 (specified)
