Description Benjamin K. Stuhl 2006-03-12 14:18:08 UTC 
Most recent kernel where this bug did not occur: 2.6.15
Distribution: Gentoo
Hardware Environment: IBM Thinkpad T22 (1Ghz Pentium III, 256 MB RAM)
Problem Description:

With 2.6.16-rc6, loading the yenta_socket module hard-freezes my system (neither
magic sysrq nor software watchdog work). If I boot with acpi=off, everything works.

Steps to reproduce:

Boot with init=/bin/bash so that you can control module loading, then execute
modprobe yenta_socket

*mumble* sorry, I thought I had reproduced this with an unpatched 2.6.16-rc6,
but it seems not... I guess this is a dynticks bug or something. Marking
INVALID, I'll take it over to Con Kolivas.
