I'm testing host cpu hotplug with kvm. Basically running 7 guests on a 4 core machine, offlining and onlining host cpus at random. Eventually I hit this:


[snip oops]

This seems to be the assignment to cfs_rq after pick_next_entity().

I'm running kvm.git, which is currently 2.6.26-rc2 plus a few kvm patches. It could be kvm's fault, but it doesn't appear so from the traces.


I get the same oops running with the kvm modules unloaded. None of kvm.git's changes are in core code, so this is definitely a mainline problem.

It took about 40 minutes to reproduce; 1200 cpus onlined and 1200 cpus offlined.
