SubjectStrange Oops with 2.4.20 and ISDN Channel bundling
Hi,
we receive the following oops reproducible with vanilla 2.4.20 and isdn
channel bundling:

Oops: 0007
CPU: 0
EIP: 0023:[<0804b6e7>] Not tainted
EFLAGS: 00010287
eax: 080d7940 ebx: 080d7958 ecx: 3fdd2b14 edx: 3fdd2bb4

Process ipppd (pid: 1001, stackpage=cded5000)
<0>Kernel panic: Aiee, killing interrupt handler!
In interrupt handler - not syncing

No backtrace is displaced. We had to linux machines connected, only the
one sending data
oopses. Before it happens "Warning: kfree_skb on hard IRQ d08342a4" is
logged a couple of times.
We first noticed the oops with a heavily patched kernel we use. With
this kernel, all kinds of
BUG()s were hit, f.e. in schedule() and alloc_skb(), both expected
in_interrupt() to be false.

The alloc_skb BUG() looks like this:
kernel BUG at skbuff.c:174!

To me it looks like something in the area of isdn_net_start_xmit does
something
so in_interrupt later returns true when it is not supposed to do so (all
unix socket
handling should be done in user context if i understand correctly).
I'm not sure what this would be, is it correct to look for:

- *_lock_bk() without *_unlock_bh()
- local_bh_disable() without local_bh_enable()
- save_flags(), sti() without restore_flags()

Am i missing some ? Any other suggestions would be welcome, too.

Regards,
Patrick
