Hi, While checking somethings for a next release of kmod I noticed this strange thing:
cat /sys/module/acpi_cpufreq/refcnt 18446744073709551614 We outputs this as "-1" in lsmod because we treat the value as signed. I was just going to change it to unsigned to make it compatible with what module-init-tools does but... For me it looks like a bug in the kernel since in this file we just have the output of kernel/module.c:module_refcount() I have this behavior on 3.9.2 but judging by the missing commits in kernel/module.c, this would also happen in latest head. I've never seen such a value so I guess it might be difficult to reproduce it again. Any hints on what could cause decs to be greater than incs in module_refcount()? -- Lucas De Marchi -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
