Kernel Oops within Linux Fedore Core 5

[Uladzislau Rezki]

HI,

I am running linux Fedore Core 5 with 2.6.15 linux kernel.

So , the problem is that, while loading my own kernel module, kernel gets Oops.

---> usbfs
---> tmpfs
---> binfmt_misc
---> rpc_pipefs
---> autofs
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address dead4ead
printing eip:

here is source:

#include <linux/module.h>
#include <linux/kernel.h>
#include <linux/init.h>

#include <linux/fs.h>
#include <linux/sched.h>
#include <linux/mount.h>

static int __init
sb_show_init (void)
{
    struct super_block *init_sb = NULL;
    struct task_struct *init = NULL;
    struct list_head *list_sb = NULL;
    struct vfsmount *root_mnt;

    /*
     * The init_task struct describes
     * init process.
    */
    init = &init_task;
    root_mnt = init->fs->rootmnt;
    init_sb = root_mnt->mnt_sb;

    list_for_each(list_sb, &init_sb->s_list) {
        struct super_block *sb = sb_entry(list_sb);

        mutex_lock(&s->s_lock);
        printk(KERN_ERR "---> %s\n", sb->s_id);
        mutex_unlock(&s->s_lock);
    }

    return 0;
}

static void __exit
sb_show_exit (void)
{
    printk(KERN_ERR "By-by.\n");
}

I try just go through the list of super blocks and printing "s_id" as
a result get Oops. it works fine with 2.6.18/22/24 kernels. Maybe this
problem concerns just Fedore Core kernel? Or maybe my code is wrong?

thanks.
