[MEMO] ftrace suckage++

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



As johannes pointed out to me the culprit to the e1000e corruption was
determined to be ftrace related [1]. Well it seems I hit an oops with
ftrace using iwlagn after a simple load of the module using
wireless-testing. I'm not sure if john's tree yet has ftrace fixes.
Both Fedora 10 and Ubuntu 8.10 had dynamic ftrace enabled so users on
these first kernels and using compat-wireless may run into this so
just putting this out there. I'll can check for this flag in
compat-wireless for now and bitch/exit if its enabled unless someone
has a better idea.

Oops, using wireless-testing and iwlagn with these options enabled:

CONFIG_HAVE_FTRACE=y
