This almost always means that we dereferenced a NULL pointer ... though any access into the bottom PAGE_SIZE of kernel virtual address space will result in this trap. This happens on ia64 because we have a "NaT" page mapped at 0x0 so that speculative loads that chase NULL pointers at the end of lists behave more rationally. Sadly I don't have the actual address. The register that was used for the dereference isn't included in the OOPS output. -Tony -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-next" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
