Hi, While I tried to generate a segfault it crashed GNUMach (1.x, I have tested both CVS and 1.2) with this error:
panic: zalloc: zone kalloc.8192 exhausted (There is a small pause here and a bit of disk activity/ flashing IDE LEDs) hd1: irq timeout: status=0x58 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest } hd0: disabled DMA hd1: disabled DMA ide0: reset: success (And here my box reboots after some seconds) Here is how I produced this result (and I can generate this problem anytime, so it is possible to debug this). The weird thing about this problem is that it only happens when I run the test program from my /home partition (which lives on hd0s1). Here is what I did before GNUMach crashed: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cd src/tests [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/src/tests$ cat crash.c int main (int argc, char *argv[]) { int *p = 0; *p = 213; return 0; } [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/src/tests$ gcc crash.c -o crash [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/src/tests$ ./crash Segmentation fault [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/src/tests$ ./crash Does someone have any idea what the problem might be and how I can debug this? I am willing to do so but I am afraid that it can be quite hard (and that I do not have the experience and perhaps not enough knowledge) so I would appreciate some help (a pointer in the right direction). Are other people able to reproduce the same? Please notice that you will need to test this using a second partition.
