Hi, I get a warning from lockdep during boot; 2.6.18-rc3 don't have this warning. I see a similar report in the archive (I haven't found time to test the patch...):
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-netdev&m=115506258902757&w=2 but my stacktrace is a bit different, so I'm reporting this one too: ================================= [ INFO: inconsistent lock state ] --------------------------------- inconsistent {in-softirq-W} -> {softirq-on-W} usage. ifconfig/1812 [HC0[0]:SC0[0]:HE1:SE1] takes: (&ifa->lock){-+..}, at: [<f1a0a4b9>] inet6_addr_add+0xd9/0x160 [ipv6] {in-softirq-W} state was registered at: [<b01342dd>] lock_acquire+0x5d/0x80 [<b030bafa>] _spin_lock_bh+0x3a/0x50 [<f1a0b76b>] addrconf_dad_timer+0x5b/0x100 [ipv6] [<b0122bb9>] run_timer_softirq+0x149/0x170 [<b011ee62>] __do_softirq+0x62/0xc0 [<b011ef15>] do_softirq+0x55/0x60 [<b011f18b>] irq_exit+0x4b/0x50 [<b01059ec>] do_IRQ+0x4c/0x90 [<b0103c15>] common_interrupt+0x25/0x2c [<b0101aa1>] cpu_idle+0x41/0x70 [<b0100537>] rest_init+0x37/0x40 [<b03fe7aa>] start_kernel+0x2ba/0x360 [<b0100199>] 0xb0100199 irq event stamp: 4501 hardirqs last enabled at (4501): [<b011f525>] local_bh_enable_ip+0x95/0x110 hardirqs last disabled at (4499): [<b011f4bf>] local_bh_enable_ip+0x2f/0x110 softirqs last enabled at (4500): [<f1a0729e>] ipv6_add_addr+0x3e/0x270 [ipv6] softirqs last disabled at (4488): [<b030bc6e>] _read_lock_bh+0xe/0x50 other info that might help us debug this: 1 lock held by ifconfig/1812: #0: (rtnl_mutex){--..}, at: [<b030a73c>] mutex_lock+0x1c/0x20 stack backtrace: [<b0104312>] show_trace+0x12/0x20 [<b01048e9>] dump_stack+0x19/0x20 [<b01320de>] print_usage_bug+0x23e/0x250 [<b0132a39>] mark_lock+0x5a9/0x5c0 [<b0133a86>] __lock_acquire+0x806/0xd20 [<b01342dd>] lock_acquire+0x5d/0x80 [<b030baa5>] _spin_lock+0x35/0x50 [<f1a0a4b9>] inet6_addr_add+0xd9/0x160 [ipv6] [<f1a0a7d9>] addrconf_add_ifaddr+0x69/0x80 [ipv6] [<f1a02342>] inet6_ioctl+0x72/0x90 [ipv6] [<b02aaa9e>] sock_ioctl+0xfe/0x1f0 [<b01720f8>] do_ioctl+0x28/0x80 [<b01721a7>] vfs_ioctl+0x57/0x2c0 [<b0172449>] sys_ioctl+0x39/0x60 [<b0103173>] syscall_call+0x7/0xb Luca -- Home: http://kronoz.cjb.net Il tempo speso a coltivare sogni non � sprecato. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
