What function called cache_grow? I just put a 'if (!l3) return 0;' into cache_grow, the backtrace is the one from the initial report. Reverting 04231b3002ac53f8a64a7bd142fde3fa4b6808c6 does not change anything. Since -mm boots further, what patch should I try? The kernel boots on a different p570. See attached dmesg. huckleberry boots, cranberry crashes. --- huckleberry.suse.de-2.6.16.57-0.5-ppc64.txt 2008-01-17 20:48:18.510309000 +0100 +++ cranberry.suse.de-2.6.16.57-0.5-ppc64.txt 2008-01-17 20:48:09.425402000 +0100 @@ -1,56 +1,55 @@ Page orders: linear mapping = 24, others = 12 -Found initrd at 0xc000000002700000:0xc000000002a93000 +Found initrd at 0xc000000001300000:0xc0000000016e6c1e Partition configured for 8 cpus.
