Re: [PLUG] Kernel BUG?

["Brent Saner" <brent.saner@gmail.com>]

i don't know that much about this, but isn't paging tied to either swap/RAM or processing?

(if so, make sure you run a cpu burn-in test- lots of threads on suggested ways to do that in our archives- and run a memtest, and run badblocks and performance stresses on your swap partition. if not, i'm sorry i'm an idiot. ^_^)

It happen once?
It bring the system down or just show up in the log?

Debian testing, kernel 2.6.22-7. CPU is a Duron 1.6GHz, so the kernel image
I installed is a K7 one.

when there was a page access failure in the kernel

> Oct 31 13:08:21 mail imapd: LOGIN FAILED, method=CRAM-MD5, ip=[::ffff:10.0.0.20]
> Oct 31 13:08:26 mail imapd: LOGIN, user=turgon, ip=[::ffff: 10.0.0.20 ], port=[50696], protocol=IMAP

resulting in a login failure.


The answer is the same: report the problem to the kernel list
