Date: Mon, 16 Jun 2008 11:24:31 -0700 From: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@...ux.intel.com> To: Linux Kernel Mailing List <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> CC: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@...ux-foundation.org>, Andrew Morton <akpm@...ux-foundation.org>, Ingo Molnar <mingo@...e.hu>, Thomas Gleixner <tglx@...utronix.de>, "John W. Linville" <linville@...driver.com> Subject: Oops report for the week preceding June 16th, 2008 This week, a total of 3877 oopses and warnings have been reported, compared to 3390 reports in the previous week. Recently, Fedora put out an updated kernel that contained a wireless update; unfortunately, this update was rather broken and caused various things to show up in the top 20. A few days later, another update fixing the most obvious ones got released with the result that only rank 2 and 9 are from the broken update, rather than a lot more.. A new feature this week: for certain type of oopses (need to happen in vmlinux etc), the website now shows a mixed view of code/disassembly of the oops. For example, on http://www.kerneloops.org/searchweek.php?search=page_remove_rmap you can hover your mouse over the "Decode" word and it'll show the disassembled view. This information is also part of the detailed view of each oops that is suitable, and is also in the git exported view (git clone git://www.kerneloops.org/ ) Per file statistics 570 external/madwifi/wrapper (P) 323 drivers/net/wireless/b43/main.c 284 external/madwifi/binary (P) 276 drivers/parport/procfs.c 230 fs/sysfs/dir.c 208 fs/jbd/journal.c 174 security/selinux/hooks.c 137 net/mac80211/util.c 81 kernel/time/tick-broadcast.c 58 fs/ext3/super.c 49 net/mac80211/main.c 48 external/nvidia/binary (P) 45 mm/rmap.c Seen with untainted kernels --------------------------- Rank 2: b43_generate_noise_sample (warning) Reported 323 times (389 total reports) [fixed] too strict WARN_ON in b43 driver Fix available; not merged in mainline yet This warning was last seen in version 2.6.26-rc4-git5, and first seen in 2.6.25.3.
