Hello people,
I triggered an "invalid operand" oops in linux-2.4.4-ac9 today, and could
trace it back to the line mm/slab.c:1244. I did nothing really special
when this happened, and I was not able to log in onto any console or
terminal afterwards (probably because tty_open failed very miserably

Hmm.. I just looked at my GCC problem report from December, perhaps you're
interested, too:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-bugs/2000-12/msg00554.html
The example in there

I don't remember exactly, it's been a while, but I think it was not

Hello people,
after having "upgraded" (?) my distro from my wonderfully hand-configured
Debian system (which I unfortunately wrecked up lately) to S*SE 7.1, I'm now
really displeasured about the IDE-SCSI emulation thing for my ATAPI CD
roaster. Not that I was not able to set it up correctly, b
Hi together,
seems like a hot discussion going on, but I couldn't resist and would like to
throw in my $0.02.
Besides misunderstandings and general displeasure, some very interesting
facts have shown up in the discussion (oh, yeah), which I'd like to know more
about, and just extend them with a
d I'm happy my disk did too :-)
Many thanks for the fine work!
Greetings,

t; clean /dev that actually makes sense. Good work guys.
I like it very much too, and can't appreciate to see it in all its beauty
when all the ugly peculiarities have been hacked out and the drivers have all
been adapted to work just fine... it's really a great idea!
Greetings,
haven't had any reaction on my bug
report yet.
Along with it is a small fix for a typo in fs/umsdos/mangle.c, which was
detected by GCC's new preprocessor (#elseif instead of #else).
Greetings and a happy new year to everyone,

upting the semaphore pointer!
So __down() works on a random memory location instead of the semaphore, which
is guaranteed to fail badly.
I've added linux-kernel as CC again, so everybody can now hear that this is
definitely a GCC bug, and not a kernel issue.

a clearer impression of what's going on.
It seems that whyever, the cause for this failure is actually the down(sem)
call on a not yet up()'ed semaphore, and this is where it starts to get ugly.
