Hello,
I've been using kernel 2.4.22-pre6 with the smbfs LFS patch and the
airo-lock-tx-fix.patch from Daniel Ritz <[email protected]> with much
success relative to 2.4.21. Since I needed to make a minor change to my
configuration, and because I got another "BAP setup error" and effective
crash (it scrolled a stack dump continuously and kept scrolling slower
until it got so confused it just locked up) I decided to try 2.4.22-rc2
which seems to have incorporated [other?] airo patches.
However, with this new kernel, I can no longer 'modprobe airo_cs'
successfully, even though I've done a proper(?) 'depmod -a'. I can
'modprobe i82365' successfully followed by a successful 'modprobe ds',
but a 'cardctl ident' gives a series of "unable to map address space"
type errors, that go something like this:
Aug 21 23:40:22 j23 kernel: Linux Kernel Card Services 3.1.22

Thought someone might like to know ... I'm going back to -pre6 ...

Naturally, this was the result of my own foolishness. I wanted to let
everyone know that there's no need to look into this, even though y'all
seem to have already deduced this. Everything appears to be working.

Hi All,
I am running RedHat Linux 9 Linux 2.4.21 SMP and
memory usage is increasing regularly even if
no heavy service like (radiusd,mysqld, httpd, named) is not
running. After some time I get Out of Memory
messages and system hungs!
It sounds stupid but we are running single cpu.
Would it be possible to have a memory leakage due to SMP
operations? Board is Intel Server Board SE7501BR2 and
cpu info:
processor : 0

Many thanks for the commets

Then you should contact a Red Hat Linux forum for support.
[email protected] for the most part only discusses
fairly vanilla kernels, especially the ones published at
http://kernel.org. Perhaps you could try loading one of
those kernels, and seeing if the problem exists there?
If it does, please write back with more info.

No need. And we didn't want to apply rc in the production.

Actually machine was up about 2 weeks for testing. After
we got to production. It gets mad.

Radiusd, mysqld, named and httpd are the most active processes.

Nothing in the process table generates expanding memory.
2-3 hours ago problem suddenly smears out.
We suspect that commenting in named.conf log options and reload rncd
has solved the problem. Which is bizzare, because we have already
tried without named.

PS: from named.conf
logging {
//channel syslog_errors {
// Syslog logging: typically daemon, if we choose local1,
// some message still go to daemon (bug), so we leave daemon for now .
// syslog daemon;
//syslog local1; severity info;

// ignore all "lame server" errors (only do this if none of the lame
// servers belong to you; otherwise, fix them)
category lame-servers{ null; };
//category statistics { null; }; // We don't need stats for this server

Ah, if you were running a kernel.org kernel, apologies.

I haven't seen the problem you describe, so I'm shooting in
the dark, but:
How long does the problem take to occur after boot?
What kind of load are you putting on the system?
Have you checked the output of ps and /proc/slabinfo to
look for obvious bloats?
