Thanks. The 'long pathname' part of it really ought to be a
red herring
-- if you look at the strace you'll see the auditctl aborts without ever
trying to send the watch to the kernel. It makes the decision about
length on its own. Is this _really_ necessary to reproduce the problem?
I thought the same thing but couldn't reproduce it without that in
there. I think Amy has seen weird behavior under other circumstances
though.
I'm concerned that SysRq-P isn't working --
does it work _before_ you get the system into this state?
Not on my ia64 box.
Can you confirm my understanding of the steps required to reproduce
this... this ought to suffice?
Hangs on the first iteration on my box.
