I suspect that the reap timer is innocent and what we have is simply scribbled-on slab metadata. Which means it could be anything at all.
One last thing: could you please stick a
printk(KERN_EMERG "destroying slab %s\n", cachep->name);
at the start of slab_destroy()? That'll help narrow it down.
Could you also punt me over the .config? If I can make it happen, the binary search will find it. But it probably won't happen here. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
