Hmm. I bisected it twice to commit 1bebedd653e1bb0440ebf40724c55791c21ad7cc Merge: a8d5ddf 62fa36a Author: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Nov 25 17:42:47 2009 +1100 Merge remote branch 'md/for-next' It doesn't make sense at all. How can empty merge cause a regression? And md/for-next doesn't produce the BUG. After the 1st bisection I did git checkout 1bebedd653e1bb0440ebf40724c55791c21ad7cc and built it. It crashed. Then I did git bisect start 1bebedd origin/stable where origin is next. And got back to the 1bebedd by bisection. -- js Faculty of Informatics, Masaryk University Suse Labs, Novell -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
