Well, I noticed that yesterday and thought it was faulty hardware, but
when I tried with pre2.0.4, it did work, so I guess it's a bug. It's
still there with pre2.0.7, which I just tried.
Under X it frozes everything solid , but then I reproduced it in text
mode and was able to change VCs, and print the CPU state.
It looks like it loops in V1_trunc_indirect, from the CPU state :
EIP: 0010:[<0014a381>] EFLAGS: 00000257
EAX: 00000000 EBX: 00000000 ECX: 015c6ef4 EDX:013f46ac
ESI: 00000000 EDI: 00000000 EBP: 00000488 DS: 0018 ES: 0018 FS: 002b GS: 002b
and from vmlinux :
0014a1bc t V1_trunc_direct
0014a1bc t gcc2_compiled.
0014a2c0 t V1_trunc_indirect
0014a4e8 t V1_trunc_dindirect
0014a638 T V1_minix_truncate
(asking for other states shows that it stays somewhere between 0014a340
and 0014a390).
This is on a fresh pre2.0.7, with nothing special enabled (config follows).
