Description: "out of the blue" we started getting very frequent oopses on two large Internet servers. EIP is invalid, always starting with f7. Oopses reproduced with several different kernels including 2.4.23 "vanilla" (see below). *All* hardware has been replaced but oopses remain.
Hardware: SMP P3 and SMP P4 XEON DAC960 raid controller
Software: Apache/PHP/MySQL/Sendmail/Pureftpd etc (the usual Internet stuff) No changes in the setup to explain oopses.
Kernels: 2.4.18-pre8 (previously used > 18 months w/o any problems) 2.4.22 (running ~ two months w/o any problems) 2.4.23 (just tried today) all completely static - no modules used all with patches for grsecurity and reiserfs-quota 2.4.23 also tried without any patches at all, but same results
Kernel config: http://www19.aname.net/~johan/2.4.23-grsec-reiserquota-config.txt
