Recently I updated my kernel to gentoo-sources-2.6.20 I had some problems with rt2500 and it's fixed BUT I seen iptables failed to started at the INIT and after I tried to debug it Finally I found some changes in kernel config (section netfilter) and added NF_CONNTRACK* to my config Now the system crashed (no debug msgs, magic sysreq do not re-lay...). I test it both rt2500-beta4 and rt2500_pre Here, the diff bewteen the ~stable~ .config and the ~crash~ .config --- config_old 2007-02-10 14:20:45.000000000 +0100 +++ config_bug 2007-02-10 14:22:00.000000000 +0100 @@ -1,7 +1,7 @@ # # Automatically generated make config: don't edit # Linux kernel version: 2.6.20-gentoo -# Sat Feb 10 13:47:39 2007 +# Sat Feb 10 14:21:40 2007 # CONFIG_X86_64=y CONFIG_64BIT=y @@ -338,17 +338,39 @@ CONFIG_NETFILTER_NETLINK=y # CONFIG_NETFILTER_NETLINK_QUEUE is not set # CONFIG_NETFILTER_NETLINK_LOG is not set -# CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_ENABLED is not set +CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_ENABLED=y +CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_SUPPORT=y +# CONFIG_IP_NF_CONNTRACK_SUPPORT is not set +CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK=y +CONFIG_NF_CT_ACCT=y +CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_MARK=y +# CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_EVENTS is not set +# CONFIG_NF_CT_PROTO_SCTP is not set +# CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_AMANDA is not set +CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_FTP=m +# CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_H323 is not set +CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_IRC=m +# CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_NETBIOS_NS is not set +# CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_PPTP is not set +# CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_SIP is not set +# CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_TFTP is not set +# CONFIG_NF_CT_NETLINK is not set CONFIG_NETFILTER_XTABLES=y CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_CLASSIFY=m +CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_CONNMARK=m CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_DSCP=m CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_MARK=m CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_NFQUEUE=m CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_NFLOG=m +CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_NOTRACK=m CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_COMMENT=m +CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_CONNBYTES=m +CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_CONNMARK=m +CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_CONNTRACK=m CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_DCCP=m CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_DSCP=m CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_ESP=m +CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_HELPER=m CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_LENGTH=m CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_LIMIT=m CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_MAC=m @@ -358,6 +380,7 @@ CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_QUOTA=m CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_REALM=m CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_SCTP=m +CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_STATE=m CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_STATISTIC=m CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_STRING=m CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_TCPMSS=m @@ -366,6 +389,7 @@ # # IP: Netfilter Configuration # +# CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_IPV4 is not set # CONFIG_IP_NF_QUEUE is not set CONFIG_IP_NF_IPTABLES=m CONFIG_IP_NF_MATCH_IPRANGE=m Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Please define "the system crashed" -- be descriptive.
(In reply to comment #1) > Please define "the system crashed" -- be descriptive. > All is blocked (I can't do anything) System crash after Kernel boot and INIT I found the problem, the system was not stable with this option in kernel config : (X) Layer 3 Independent Connection tracking But work with : (X) Layer 3 Dependent Connection tracking (OBSOLETE) Those options are here : -> Networking -> Networking support (NET [=y]) -> Networking options -> Network packet filtering framework (Netfilter) (NETFILTER [=y]) IP: Netfilter Configuration
You still haven't really described what you mean by 'crash', it's not a specific term. Any beeps? Anything on screen? Does caps lock respond? Num lock? Can you ping the system? What do you mean by "during kernel boot and init" -- which one? Which point precisely?
I have a news, it's a kernel panic. You can see it there : http://braineed.ath.cx/~tiger/gentoo/kernel_panics/kernel_panic.jpg I seen two importants things in : - invalid opcode : 0000 (1) SMP - <IRQ> [<ffffffff880739f2>] :rt2500:RTMFHandleDecryptionDoneInterrupt+0x6bf/0xed0 I confirm I had this kernel panic after selected this options in kernel config : (X) Layer 3 Independent Connection tracking
This is a bug in the rt2500 driver which is not part of the kernel
please try with 1.1.0_pre2007020911 or try the new rt2x00-git from bug 176148
