Subject: [BUG] NULL pointer dereference
Date: 09 Oct 2002 09:01:47 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1034172108.29084.96.camel@plars> (raw)

During some testing I was doing on linux-2.5.41-mm1 I came across the
NULL pointer dereference below.  I suspect it is also in 2.5.41 vanilla,
but I have not been able to reproduce it so far.  It was on an 8-way
PIII-700, 16 GB ram.  I had been running ltp at the time and it had
completed.  I was hitting tab at the time it happened to get a command
line completion in bash.

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address
