Hi there, I cannot get my AMD64 working with forcedeth network chip and Netkey.
While recompiling kernel to get iptables and OpenSWAN working, I cannot anymore boot my computer, it freeze on network setup. After some reboots / recompile, I've traced the problem arround NetKEY. If I enable it in the kernel, I'm getting oops. Starting in single, I've been able to see errors comming because dhcpclient process and af_packet module. If I dont load af_packet at boot, i can setup manually an ip address. Unfortunaty, when lauching gnome, my computer hang (probably some process tries to load af_packets ?) The NIC is on-board NIC on the MSI Neo4 Platinum motherboard (product MS-7125) I've tried thoses kernel version, same behavior : - 2.6.21.6 - 2.6.22.1 - 2.6.22.6 Here is the oops I got (dmesg captured) : skb_under_panic: text:c02b089c len:14 put:14 head:f74e8410 data:f74e8402 tail:f74e8400 end:f74e8580 dev:<NULL> ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at net/core/skbuff.c:111! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP Modules linked in: af_packet usbhid sha256 sha1 hmac crypto_hash des crypto_algapi af_key xfrm_user ohci_hcd parport_pc ehci_hcd usbcore parport ohci1394 ieee1394 nvidia(P) floppy forcedeth sg CPU: 1 EIP: 0060:[<c029f0c9>] Tainted: P VLI EFLAGS: 00010292 (2.6.21.6 #2) EIP is at skb_under_panic+0x59/0x60 eax: 00000072 ebx: f74e8410 ecx: f72a2000 edx: 00000000 esi: 00000000 edi: 00000800 ebp: 00000000 esp: f72a3d6c ds: 007b es: 007b fs: 00d8 gs: 0033 ss: 0068 Process dhcpcd (pid: 3723, ti=f72a2000 task=f76bd030 task.ti=f72a2000) Stack: c0398bd0 c02b089c 0000000e 0000000e f74e8410 f74e8402 f74e8400 f74e8580 c037d386 f74e8402 f7fa4c80 c02b08a1 f79b4000 f72a3f40 f79b4000 c215a900 f7fa4c80 f8b95cca f72a3ecc 00000000 00000148 c016c455 f7a92600 0008cae0 Call Trace: [<c02b089c>] eth_header+0x10c/0x120 [<c02b08a1>] eth_header+0x111/0x120 [<f8b95cca>] packet_sendmsg+0x14a/0x260 [af_packet] [<c016c455>] link_path_walk+0x65/0xc0 [<c0299dbe>] sock_sendmsg+0xce/0x100 [<c0131180>] autoremove_wake_function+0x0/0x40 [<c016d3d4>] path_lookup+0x14/0x20 [<c02fdb10>] unix_find_other+0x30/0x1a0 [<c029a193>] sys_sendto+0x133/0x180 [<c029b1ce>] sys_socketcall+0x14e/0x280 [<c0102c7e>] sysenter_past_esp+0x5f/0x85 ======================= Code: 00 00 89 5c 24 14 8b 98 90 00 00 00 89 54 24 0c 89 5c 24 10 8b 40 60 89 4c 24 04 c7 04 24 d0 8b 39 c0 89 44 24 08 e8 57 f4 e7 ff <0f> 0b eb fe 8d 76 00 56 53 bb 86 d3 37 c0 83 ec 24 8b 70 14 85 EIP: [<c029f0c9>] skb_under_panic+0x59/0x60 SS:ESP 0068:f72a3d6c Here is my running environement : Linux amd64-linux 2.6.21.6 #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Sep 6 23:33:04 CEST 2007 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4200+ AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux Gnu C 4.2.0 Gnu make 3.81 binutils Binutils util-linux 2.12r mount 2.12r module-init-tools 3.2.2 e2fsprogs 1.40.2 reiserfsprogs 3.6.19 PPP 2.4.4 Linux C Library > libc.2.6 Dynamic linker (ldd) 2.6 Procps 3.2.7 Net-tools 1.60 Kbd 1.13 Sh-utils 6.9 udev 114 And my on-board NIC : 00:0a.0 Bridge: nVidia Corporation CK804 Ethernet Controller (rev a3) Subsystem: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd.
