But please take a look. Hmm, only thing I see might cause the problem would be if calling __hw_addr_add in dev_addr_init fails, then dev->dev_addr would contain zeroes (which looks this is not the case). But in this case the oops would appear earlier (in ibmveth_probe dev_addr memcpy). Will do the patch which checks the result to behave correctly in case of oom but this imho this wouldn't help. Strange, I will dig into this more tomorrow. > >> Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address >> 0x654af306c04b990 >> Faulting instruction address: 0xc00000000003a740 >> Oops: Kernel
