find below the disassembled code. Here's the faulting source line
according to gdb:
(gdb) list *0x78406669
0x78406669 is in blk_rq_map_sg (include/linux/scatterlist.h:48).
43 */
44 static inline struct scatterlist *sg_next(struct scatterlist *sg)
45 {
46 sg++;
47
48 if (unlikely(sg_is_chain(sg)))
49 sg = sg_chain_ptr(sg);
50
51 return sg;
52 }
(gdb) list *0x78406673
0x78406673 is in blk_rq_map_sg (block/ll_rw_blk.c:1355).
1350 } else {
1351 new_segment:
1352 sg = next_sg;
1353 next_sg = sg_next(sg);
1354
1355 sg->page = bvec->bv_page;
1356 sg->length = nbytes;
1357 sg->offset = bvec->bv_offset;
1358 nsegs++;
1359 }
(gdb)
the compiler is gcc-4.2.2. (vanilla, built from sources)
