Hi, I've done some testing w/ our SMP machine and the PPPDs - the FREEZE (lock) occurs due to the locking via rtnl_lock()/rtnl_unlock() for unregister_netdevice in ppp_destoy_interface. The problem occurs on 2.4.0.SuSE and all vanilla 2.4.x kernels (just tested 2.4.5) in SMP mode only!!! (And yes, not locking the lists works BUT ... :-) All help is very much appreciated! Thanks in advance, Immanuel P.S.
