Under 2.1.88, I can reliably force kernel to print lots of
Mar 8 00:44:08 Elf kernel: Internal error: bad swap-device
Mar 8 00:44:08 Elf kernel: swap_free: Trying to free nonexistent
swap-page
Mar 8 00:44:08 Elf kernel: Internal error: bad swap-device
Mar 8 00:44:08 Elf kernel: swap_free: Trying to free nonexistent
swap-page
by simply starting wine. (Strange think is, that wine now works. It
used to be broken :-). Machine stays pretty healthy (as far as I can
see).
Hmm, both are because:
type = SWP_TYPE(entry);
...
if (type >= nr_swapfiles)
goto bad_nofile;
As SWP_TYPE was changed in 2.1.87, I think it is 'the' problem. I'll
let mm hackers (Linus?) finish this.
