That's BTW "possible circular locking dependency" and there is only one CPU (no HT, single core - an old mobile Celeron P3). I have to admit this machine has a history of mysterious hangs (black screen of death), though I think they are related to LAN and maybe disk activity, not GRE/PPP/ATM/ADSL (RAM tests ok, the hardware is rather common - i440BX etc. but who knows). -- Krzysztof Halasa -- VGER BF report: S 0.999877 - 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/ | ||||||||||||
