You might have triggered TIF_AUDIT or whatever it's called, which causes a whole different path through the asm tangle, so you might really have a problem. Try auditctl -a task,never. If that doesn't change anything, try rebooting the guest. --Andy > > D. -- Andy Lutomirski AMA Capital Management, LLC -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
