Lately we've been getting crashes on our 4.2bsd machines with a
Panic: Protection Fault
The system crashes in iget(). It looks like the protection problem
is in the following code:
if (ip->i_count == 0) { /* ino on free list */
if (iq = ip->i_freef)
iq->i_freeb = ip->i_freeb;
else
> ifreet = ip->i_freeb;
> *ip->i_freeb = iq;
ip->i_freef = NULL;
ip->i_freeb = NULL;
}
Specifically on the marked lines (I'm not sure what the actual instruction
is, the pc is at the start of the second, but I think that means it errored
in the first). Has anyone out there had this problem? Does someone have
a *fix*?
