>Description:
I've been getting warnings like this for some time from 1.5T
(2001/03/24 sources), but I just booted a kernel built from
sources updated yesterday (2001/06/19) and quite soon after
starting up and being used it spit out another on the console:
Data modified on freelist: word 3 of object 0xc0aeb400 size 292 previous type key mgmt (0x2 != 0xdeadbeef)
Here's a sample of previous complaints from 1.5T:
Data modified on freelist: word 3 of object 0xc0b0b600 size 308 previous type key mgmt (0x2 != 0xdeadbeef)

Data modified on freelist: word 3 of object 0xc0aeb400 size 292 previous type key mgmt (0x2 != 0xdeadbeef)
So far there've been no crashes though -- uptime was 30 days
before the new kernel just now, and before the last unscheduled
power outage the 1.5T kernel ran fine since I built it.
Any other information can be provided on request....
