My patch posted on 22 Jun had a bug! http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=108791355225806&w=2 In the __run_timers, I missed spin_unlock_irq before fn(data). Your patch correct rightly. Thanks! >does this patch stabilize diskdump? No. There is one thing I need correct. I need replace proc interface with sysfs, as Christoph and Arjan commented. After fix this, I'll release stable version 1.0.
