[linux-cifs-client] kernel panic in mount.cifs

[Tucker Cunningham]

hi steve and others -
   A box of ours had a kernel panic and it looks like mount.cifs was 
running when it happened.  The box was running Debian Sarge with kernel 
2.6.13.2 and cifs 1.42. 

  Unfortunately, the only output that we were able to gather from the 
box is a screenshot of the terminal output from a  KVM switch that was 
connected to the box.  It's definitely a hassle to deal with, but the 
attached .gif file has the stack trace/etc.  Hopefully this is enough 
information that someone on this list will be able to come up with some 
sort of diagnosis.

   One thing that stuck out at me were the messages

'CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -11'

I have had problems in the past with cifs mounts failing with

"mount error 11 = Resource temporarily unavailable"

when attempting to mount shares exported by windows computers. I have 
never been able to reliably reproduce them, and I'm not sure that the 
two problems are related, but solving either one would be great.  Any 
input is appreciated.
