Trying to configure Wine in a folder with ACL entries present and a mode of 700 causes the kernel to deadlock. Requires no special privileges. Filesystem is ReiserFS, don't know about others. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Download the Wine source code (http://ibiblio.org/pub/linux/system/emulators/wine/wine-1.1.4.tar.bz2) 2. Mount a ReiserFS filesystem with the 'acl' option, install sys-apps/acl if needed. 3. Open a shell and enter a writable folder inside the mounted filesystem. 4. Run the following: $ mkdir f1 $ setfacl -R -m user:`whoami`:rwX f1 $ setfacl -d -R -m user:`whoami`:rwX f1 $ cd f1 $ mkdir -m 700 f2 $ cd f2 (extract what you have downloaded): $ tar xf ~/wine-1.1.4.tar.bz2 $ cd wine-1.1.4/ $ ./configure 5. Hit ctrl+c as soon as it starts configuring Actual Results: The kernel deadlocks. Some things still work (network, audio), but the screen quickly freezes, the mouse stops moving, and newly plugged USB devices are not initialized. Alt+SysRq+SUB reboots, but doesn't unmount the disk. It crashed the same way even if the filesystem used is not root. Expected Results: The system should continue functioning. Kernel is configured with genkernel's default config and using the initrd.

Does this occur with later kernels?
no, it doesn't with 2.6.26
Would you mind testing vanilla-sources-2.6.25.17?
vanilla-sources-2.6.25.17 is not affected
Since it's reported to work in vanilla-sources-2.6.25.17, which is included in genpatches-2.6.25-11, which is used in gentoo-sources-2.6.25-r9 I am closing this as fixed. User has also reported this as fixed in 2.6.26.
