Hi,
While running my modprobe-killerscript I got the following in dmesg:

This is in an LPAR on an IBM Power5, 8 virtual processors (4 physical - don't ask :-]),
4GB of RAM, everything virtual (e.g. disks, network).

I've got two versions. The one one intel is:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
#! /usr/bin/perl -w
use POSIX;
@mods = <>;
for(;;)
{
$n = floor(rand(@mods));
print $mods[$n]."\n";
if (rand(2) < 1.0)
{
system('rmmod ' . $mods[$n]);
}
else
{
system('modprobe ' . $mods[$n]);
}
}
----------------------------------------------------------------------
invoked as:
lsmod | awk '{ print $1; }' | ./pyk-perl.mod
The script I used on the power5-platform is:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
#! /usr/bin/perl -w
use POSIX;
@mods = <>;
fork();
fork();
srand(time() ^ getpid() ^ getppid());
for(;;)
{
$n = floor(rand(@mods));
print $mods[$n]."\n";
if (rand(2) < 1.0)
{
system('rmmod ' . $mods[$n]);
}
else
{
system('modprobe ' . $mods[$n]);
}
}
----------------------------------------------------------------------
invoked as:
lsmod | grep -v -e ibmveth -v -e windfarm_cpufreq_clamp | awk '{ print $1; }' | ./pyk-perl.mod
I'm removing ibmveth from the list or else I would loose connection
during tests and windfarm_cpufreq_clamp because the script would hang
during a modprobe on that. Maybe something to investigate later.
