Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.22-2
Severity: normal
Hi,
Summary: echo 0 > /proc/sys/vm/vdso_enabled hangs my kernel.
Since some months, I get unusable backtraces from gdb; I was pointed at
an OpenSuse bug at:
<https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=258433>
which suggests disabling VDSO. My value of /proc/sys/vm/vdso_enabled
is 2 before I try, and the system hangs shortly after I echo 0 in that
tunable.
The important issue I'd like to see fixed is this backtrace issue, but
I'm reporting this crash as I think the kernel shouldn't crash and
because I'm using this tunable to diagnose the backtrace issue.
I'll use a kernel command line parameter in the mean time.
Bye,
