Hi.

The following (user) code causes the kernel to panic
(when run as root):

mlock( 4096, 4096 );
fork();

The panic message is "vm_fault_copy_wired: page missing".

The reason I've found this is that I've added some code to the
prefetch abort handler to try and fix the StrongARM LDM bug -
unfortunately it ends up with the same panic...

PS this may not be an ARM specific bug but I can't test that.

Seeya,
 Adam.

Real programmers don't comment their code. If it was hard to write, it
should be harder to modify. These are all my own opinions.
