Kernel Null pointer dereference in sysfs_readdir()

2007-03-01 Thread Kunal Trivedi
Hi, I have experienced kernel OOPS in sysfs_readdir. Below is some information about kernel version, debugging, some other reports of OOPS. At the end of the mail I am attaching OOPS. I also have kernel dump via which I could traverse sysfs_dirent list, and also see dentry. (Analysis is in #4).
