Bug#488253: linux-image-2.6-amd64: Kernel general protection fault on x64 systems
Package: linux-image-2.6-amd64
Version: 2.6.18+6etch3
Severity: important
Using the latest debian kernel on smp 64bit systems we can see random "general protection fault: 0000 [11] SMP" stack traces.
This is always related to high nfsv3 traffic (e.g. imap or pop3 services).
I attach some stack traces samples of three different x64 IBM 3550 machines.
Keep in mind that after these stack traces the machine is unstable and after some time its kernel is going to be crash.
Another hint is that if you try to reboot the machine you always get this stack trace followed by a kernel crash.
I would be grateful if i can send you any feedback.
Thanks,
