Hi,
I have got the following fault , can you provide me with more details
about the problem ?
Best Regards
you disabled CONFIG_KALLSYMS in your kernel configuration, which means
the backtrace isn't really useful for anyone to look at
The only thing on the stack is the regs, thus no backtrace.
Someone modified entry.S and added code just before the sysexit. There is
no 'sysenter_exit' in stock 2.6.16 for one, and there's new code before
the sysexit:
3: e8 81 ca 03 00 call 3ca89 <_EIP+0x3ca89> <== new
8: fb sti <== new
9: 8b 4d 08 mov 0x8(%ebp),%ecx
c: 66 f7 c1 ff fe test $0xfeff,%cx
11: 0f 85 4e 01 00 00 jne 165 <_EIP+0x165>
17: e8 ed ea 00 00 call eb09 <_EIP+0xeb09> <== new
1c: 8b 44 24 18 mov 0x18(%esp),%eax <== new
20: 8b 54 24 28 mov 0x28(%esp),%edx
24: 8b 4c 24 34 mov 0x34(%esp),%ecx
28: 31 ed xor %ebp,%ebp
2a: fb sti
0: 0f 35 sysexit <===== oops
But that doesn't explain the oops. Maybe the SYSENTER MSR got screwed up?
