Hi folks,
I just noticed the following couple lines in my kernel log for Linux 3.4.2:
Jun 20 14:57:54 emergent kernel: BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff88000ff1f400 idx:1 val:-2 Jun 20 14:57:54 emergent kernel: BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff88000ff1f400 idx:2 val:2
I have no idea what these messages mean, nor what I was doing exactly at 14:57:54 today, nor whether they've been fixed in newer kernels. Regardless, they appear to be telling me that there's a kernel problem since they contain the word "BUG", so I figured I had better report them nonetheless. Other than the fact that these messages were printed, the system is operating normally.
This happened about a week after bootup, so it's probably not easy to reproduce.
Let me know if you need any more info, -- Nick Bowler, Elliptic Technologies (http://www.elliptictech.com/)
