If I understand the code, anything it whinges about is either an outright bug or it's a round of ammo already chambered. ;) As far as "something else wrong", I'm still seeing these in -rc3-mm1, but they've been reported before against -rc2-mm2, I think: [ 0.628000] sysctl table check failed: /kernel/ostype .1.1 Missing strategy [ 0.628000] sysctl table check failed: /kernel/osrelease .1.2 Missing strategy [ 0.628000] sysctl table check failed: /kernel/version .1.4 Missing strategy [ 0.628000] sysctl table check failed: /kernel/hostname .1.7 Missing strategy [ 0.628000] sysctl table check failed: /kernel/domainname .1.8 Missing strategy [ 0.628000] sysctl table check failed: /kernel/shmmax .1.34 Missing strategy [ 0.628000] sysctl table check failed: /kernel/shmall .1.41 Missing strategy [ 0.628000] sysctl table check failed: /kernel/shmmni .1.45 Missing strategy [ 0.628000] sysctl table check failed: /kernel/msgmax .1.35 Missing strategy [ 0.628000] sysctl table check failed: /kernel/msgmni .1.42 Missing strategy [ 0.628000] sysctl table check failed: /kernel/msgmnb .1.36 Missing strategy [ 0.628000] sysctl table check failed: /kernel/sem .1.43 Missing strategy And this isn't on an allyesconfig or allmodconfig. There may well be sysctl code I didn't hit - my /lib/modules/2.6.23-rc3-mm1 is only about 10M, and the Fedora kernels are weighing in at about 75M of /lib/modules a pop. --==_Exmh_1188050875_6255P Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Exmh version 2.5 07/13/2001 iD8DBQFG0De7cC3lWbTT17ARAijTAJwLUIbu/UMQw+RkmIy356Jqtgd+AQCgueIs 9sGIx0QKcFIs7tzaw2SdyOI= =kLDH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --==_Exmh_1188050875_6255P-- - 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/
