Re: [Panic] 2.6.8 and ingress scheduling

[lkml]

hello again,

> the last line (filter add) in the "wondershaper" script does sth. to the
> kernel, that lets it panic on receiving network packets.

actually, the last _two_ commands set up the kernel for panic. please
see attached script; running should produce this console message:

HTB init, kernel part version 3.17
Ingress scheduler: Classifier actions prefered over netfilter

shortly then, the kernel will panic (ifconfig shows up to 500KiB RX before).

with vga selection enabled, and a long;) piece of paper, this is produced:
(omissions marked [...] - these numbers are very hard to not misread)

eof.

another time, running iptraf, identical Oops, but first line reads:

Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 000a0f0d
[...]
EIP is at ingress_enqueue+0x20/0x90
[...]

the traffic shaping of upstream packets does not panic the kernel; I
also tried a different timer source, to no success.
