The patch titled Fix a race condtion accessing oops_in_progress has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was fix-a-race-condtion-accessing-oops_in_progress.patch This patch was dropped because it had testing failures The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: Fix a race condtion accessing oops_in_progress From: Huang Ying <ying.huang@xxxxxxxxx> Fix a race condition accessing oops_in_progress. It may be changed on multiple CPUs simultaneously, but it is changed via non-atomic operation ++/--. This patch changes the definition of oops_in_process from int to atomic_t, and accessing method to atomic operations.
