I have compiled 2.4.0-test10 and 2.4.0-test11 kernels, mounted
/dev/shm and tried to install the Perl IPC::Shareable module. "make
test" produces a lot of errors (sample below), and a message from the
kernel appears in /var/log/messages. I am using a Compaq PIII 866MHz,
Redhat 7.0. I compiled test10 with gcc 2.96 anf kgcc, test11 with
kgcc, all produced more or less the same results. SYSV IPC is
configured in the kernel. No modules were loaded at the time of
failure. After the failure the machine functions normally.
X apparently uses shared memory without problems. I attach also the
ksymoops output.
