| |
This may be an init bug of some sort, but it seems like other people are running into something like this.
System (ide,pci,up,ppp) semi-locks occasionally on leaving X, and at other times. System is spinning in scheduler code. Running processes are xinit, bash, and two copies of init. Current alternates between them. No disk activity, plenty of free mem. After trying to kill them, signals for procs listed above are '1 00...4101'. Finally, with Sysrq killall procs, system hangs.
Not reproducible. Occurs infrequently. Currently running 2.1.129. I am guessing that I started seeing this by about .126, maybe before.
Behavior seems consistent with some sort of deadlock/race-condition between the procs in question.
