Every few weeks (sometimes 2 days, often 3 weeks and sometime up to 9
weeks) our kernel freezes: nothing on screen or serial console except
from some VJ decompression errors which we have at all times, even the
Num-Lock does not respond. We tried to enable sysreq keys but those
won't work either.
We are using Linux boxes to offer Satellite Internet.
We still use RedHat 7.[23] and 2.4 kernels.
The system works using rp-l2tp and/or pptpd with pppd.
On the outgoing interface (the one that sends traffic to the
Satellite we were using CBQ and now we use HTB queuing discipline.
The kernels range from 2.4.6 to 2.4.25 with some modifications
(tcp_input). We tried with the standard kernel with the only
change that the dev_alloc_name has been changed to support
up to 900 names.
The Hardware are Dell PowerEdge with Perc2 or Perc3. We tried with HP
servers and have the same problem. We tried different firmware releases
for the Perc cards and still no change.
The NIC cards are mostly Intel EEpro 100. We tried with both drivers
Intel and community with no better results.
The problem may be happening more often (every 2/3 days) when we
simulate a lot of ppp connections/disconnections (80 users/minute),
but in some cases it hangs even without having many users.
The platform we run have between 25 to 200 simultaneous connections.
Some have single or dual or even quad CPU's. And RAM between 512Mbytes
and 4 Gbytes.
We could not detect any parameters that would rise before the freeze
(load, memory, swap ...)
Could anyone give me some hint as to what to do/test more ?
Where could the problem be ?
Here are some stack traces that we where able to get on a serial console:

If the current kernel and/or modules do not match the log, you can get
more accurate output by telling me the kernel version and where to find
map, modules, ksyms etc. ksymoops -h explains the options.
