I don't think it has anything to do with the config, it looks to be some functions may do this wacky thing with the stack. If it does, and is executed, then it will crash like this. I think it has more to do with the latest gcc. I tried an older gcc and it did not cause this issue. -- Steve -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
