And then nf_iterate call into another unknown function, and there really is code there and it's consistent with the oops. And the kernel thinks it's outside of any normal text section, so it does not try to dump any code from before the instruction pointer. 0: 48 8b 88 40 03 00 00 mov 0x340(%rax),%rcx 7: e8 1d dd dd ff callq 0xffffffffffdddd29 c: 5d pop %rbp d: c3 retq Did you write your own module loader or something? -- 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/
