Hi,
I run exim 4.12 on my system, and while doing a restart of that service
on a system running 2.5.53 at that moment...

: <0>Kernel panic: Aiee, killing interrupt handler!
: In interrupt handler - not syncing
Does anyone have any idea why this happened? It looks like there's
something in exim that binds to port 25 but also makes the kernel panic.
But that's not all...
I try to "save what's left to save" by doing MagicSysRQ to unmount my
disks and that resulted in this huge loop-ish kernel-oops. I have pasted
only one section of them, the complete log (1068 lines!) is at:

Nothing to do now but reboot Ctrl-Alt-SysRQ-B ...
I hope this helps and that someone will be able to spot a possible
cause? I only experience this behaviour with exim4 ...
i'm running lvm2, with ext3, i'm telling you because I see stuff about
device mapper, ext3 and syncing.
With regards,
Sander.
