Hi all,
I have two servers (bi-Xeon 2.4GHz, software RAID1, 2GB) running
2.6.4-rc2 on a debian/testing (same problem with 2.6.3 too) that have
the following error, each night at 2am :

Mar 9 02:00:06 server2 kernel: <6>note: ps[17291] exited with preempt_count 1
This is always the same oops (same virtual address)
This oops is triggered by a tiger script that calls chkrootkit.
As a strange note, I have a third server that is identical to those 2
servers, except that it has only 1 CPU, but runs the same kernel and it
does not exhibit this oops.
Each time the oops seems to take place while 'ps mauxgww' is running.
I tried to run chkrootkit by hand but it worked.
When I run 'ps auxgww' it works fine and shows some 'ps' process
consumming all the CPU (cpu% = 99%) although load is not high.
Those ps process are always Runnable, but can't be killed.
When I run 'ps mauxgww' part of the process list is displayed, but then
ps freezes before the end of the process list (usually it seems to stop
when it displays the stuck ps launched by chkrootkit).
Procps is at version 3.1.14 on the 3 servers.
I'll try 3.2.0 to see if that changes something.
Let me know if you need some more information (dmesg...)
I'm not subscribed (yet) to the list, so I'd appreciate if you CC: me
for the answers.

Hi List,
I've digged a little deeper into the following oops that occurs every
night on my servers (see my previous mail):

I found that the problem occurs there:
fs/proc/array.c (proc_pid_stat):
if (task->tty) {
tty_pgrp = task->tty->pgrp;
--> tty_nr = new_encode_dev(tty_devnum(task->tty));
}
The oops occured on:
mov 0x64(%eax),%ecx
eax value was 02000000.
This code is part of the tty_devnum() inline:
static inline dev_t tty_devnum(struct tty_struct *tty)
{
return MKDEV(tty->driver->major, tty->driver->minor_start) + tty->index;
}
The faulty instruction is the deferencing of task->tty->driver.
As a side effect, the oops occurs while holding a task_lock, that's why
my further ps mauxgww were stuck at some point.
Something interesting: the oops occurs always in a thread (either mysql
or java), not in a principal process (verified by finding the only task
that is locked by doing some cat in /proc/<pid>/task/).
Then I tried to reproduce it exactly and found the following:
1) log in with ssh on the server (this allocates a tty: /dev/pts/0)
2) launch a java application using some threads, the application in
question uses /dev/pts/0 as tty
3) log-out, this releases /dev/pts/0
4) log in again (this session uses /dev/pts/1)
5) run chkrootkit or a 'ps mauxgww' -> the previous oops is reported.
It seems that task->tty for the threads are not properly zeroed when the
corresponding tty is unregistered (parent process is OK, though).
I'll let real kernel hackers find exactly where the problem is (and
possibly a fix)...
I'm not subscribed to the list, so please CC: me on answers.
