Re: System hangs using audit-0.9.9 (and few versions before)

I was able to reproduce it several times on a 2 CPU x86_64 box this afternoon. I'm running with the 0.70 kernel and the 0.9.13 tools. It doesn't seem to matter whether or not the audit subsystem is enabled, or whether auditd is running. I get the same ps output: root 2536 6 0 17:14 ? 00:00:00 [kauditd] root 2719 2580 0 17:15 pts/0 00:00:00 /bin/bash /etc/init.d/auditd +restart root 2727 2719 99 17:15 pts/0 00:00:43 /sbin/auditctl -D root 2728 7 22 17:15 ? 00:00:10 [audit_list_rule] On shutdown, the system gets stuck on 'Stopping pcmcia'. At one point it provided a little more info: Stopping pcmcia: warning: many lost ticks. Your time source seems to be instable or some driver is hogging interupts rip __do_softirq+0x4d/0xd0 I'm attaching sysrq -t output and straces of auditctl and auditd. There wasn't any info available for sysrq -p. Note that the sysrq -t output is actually from the 0.68 kernel. The output I got using the 0.70 kernel wasn't complete for auditctl. Hope this helps, Amy
