| |
Hello,
I'm getting some strange behavior while trying to rmmod a module from my 2.4.21 kernel. Each call to "rmmod" segfaults, leaving the module usage count incremented. This doesn't seem like something that is supposed to happen, but I can't understand what the problem is.
When I strace rmmod, the last few lines are:
query_module(NULL, QM_MODULES, { /* 5 entries */ }, 5) = 0 query_module("serial", QM_INFO, {address=0xd8816000, size=43620, flags=MOD_RUNNING, usecount=14}, 16) = 0 query_module( <unfinished ...> +++ killed by SIGSEGV +++
I haven't wanted to reboot yet, so I don't know how reproducible this is. (In fact, I've used this module often on this kernel in the past, and haven't seen this problem before.) Is there something obvious I am missing?
