[linuxsh-dev] 2.4.7 unaligned user space access problems

[Dustin M. <du...@se...>]

Hi all.
First let me say thank you to everyone working on optimizing the caches.
The speed improvement in incredible.  Good job.
I've just moved to 2.4.7 from 2.4.5, and I am having some troubles with
unaligned user space accesses though.  I can't seem to figure out why.  I'm
booting up OK, all the way to the starting of init.  Once I get here, the
system will usually hang, and I get numerous unaligned user space access
violations (handle_unaligned_access).  I have not changed the filesystem at
all from 2.4.5.  Does anyone have an idea what may cause these alignment
problems or how I should find the culprit?

Thanks for any assistance.

Dustin.
