Subject[PATCH] list_add corruption in slab.c
FromDaniel Yeisley <>
DateTue, 25 Mar 2008 12:57:38 -0400
I've been seeing list_add corruption in slab.c on the ES7000 since the
2.6.24.1 kernel.  There are several places where the initkmem_list3
array is access by [somevalue + node].  This also needs to be done in
kmem_cache_init().
