Description of problem: We find out that various kernel versions (2.6.18-xxx) does crash with IPSec. This situation occurs with special clients (netscreen firewall, Cisco PIX) and can repoduced on various platforms. We have an example stacktrace here.
The bug is located in the kernel, not in the tools. We exchange the ipsec- tools, no change.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.18-x (all versions)
How reproducible: Very difficult, since it only occurs after some time (30min - 3 days) and only with netscreen firewalls or Cisco PIX.
Steps to Reproduce: 1. Using ipsec-tools and configure tunnels 2. wait... 3. Actual results:
Expected results:
Additional info:
I have also a compressed crashdump if anyone need (18 MB compressed...)

Description of problem: The following simple reproducer causes a panic on ia64 when run as any user. Due to this I am considering this a security sensitive problem.
This is another situation where bad arguments to setmempolicy causes a system panic. I have verified this on ia64 running the latest kernel however it is likey not a recent regression.
I have not had a chance to dig into the code to narrow down the issue but it is easily reproducable (on ia64 at least, would be interested in seeing if it can be hit elsewhere).
