Re: [Crash-utility] problems running crash on recent rawhide live kernels

Hi Dave,
I also came across the same problem,
tt->refresh_hash_table is set to refresh_hlist_task_table_v2(),
after executing the function the tt->current is set to 0 (zero).
(gdb) p *tt
$3 = {current = 0x0, context_array = 0x8194e4f0, refresh_task_table =
0x800b1380 <refresh_hlist_task_table_v2>, flags = 1608, task_start = 0,
task_end = 0, task_local = 0x8179bda0,
max_tasks = 154, nr_threads = 70, running_tasks = 2, retries = 0,
panicmsg = 0, panic_processor = 0, idle_threads = {3384520, 12953368, 0
<repeats 62 times>}, panic_threads = {
0 <repeats 64 times>}, panic_ksp = {0 <repeats 64 times>}, active_set =
{3384520, 32872136, 0 <repeats 62 times>}, hardirq_ctx = {0 <repeats 64
times>}, hardirq_tasks = {
0 <repeats 64 times>}, softirq_ctx = {0 <repeats 64 times>},
softirq_tasks = {0 <repeats 64 times>}, panic_task = 0, this_task = 0,
pidhash_len = 1024, pidhash_addr = 4037248,
last_task_read = 12953368, last_thread_info_read = 13058048, last_mm_read
= 0, task_struct = 0x815eb8e0 "", thread_info = 0x81623ad0 "", mm_struct =
0x8175e420 ""}

problems running crash on recent rawhide live kernels
by Jeff Layton
I was trying to run crash against a live rawhide kernel and am getting
some errors when I try to start it:
crash: invalid task address in pid_hash: ccccccccccccca84
crash: invalid task address in pid_hash: ccccccccccccca84
...
crash: invalid task address in pid_hash: ccccccccccccca84
crash: cannot gather a stable task list via pid_hash (500 retries)
...and then crash exits. There are a few messages in dmesg:
crash memory driver: version 1.0
crash memory driver: !page_is_ram(pfn: 61000000c)
Relevant packages:
kernel-2.6.24-0.62.rc3.git5.fc9.x86_64
kernel-debuginfo-2.6.24-0.62.rc3.git5.fc9.x86_64
crash-4.0-4.10.x86_64
... the host is a FV xen guest (but that shouldn't matter, should it?).
I'm hoping I'm just doing something wrong, but I don't see anything
right offhand.
