Hello, Those using amd64 systems should be aware of the following bug:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=337645 For a quick fix in production, please note that individual patches are available here, numbered 1700 and 1705: http://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/linux-patches/genpatches-2.6/tags/2.6.35-8/ These are intended to be applied to 2.6.35 but will very likely apply to previous releases without issue. If in doubt, make use of the --dry-run feature before actually applying any patches: # cd /usr/src/linux # patch -p1 --dry-run -s < ~/1700_retruncate-rax-after-ia32-syscall.patch # patch -p1 -s < ~/1700_retruncate-rax-after-ia32-syscall.patch # patch -p1 --dry-run -s < ~/1705_syscall-number-test-fix.patch # patch -p1 -s < ~/1705_syscall-number-test-fix.patch # make Note also that the problem has been resolved in the upstream 2.6.35.5 and the 2.6.32.22 releases (2.6.32 is currently the long term stable branch). Cheers, --Kerin
