The code that outputs the first message is in tcp_ipv4.c, and was added
in version 2.2.17. The code deliberately causes a kernel oops when it
encounters this bug, presumably because the IP stack is unusable at this
point.
If this code was deliberately added then presumably someone knows what
might cause the problem. Is there a patch somewhere that fixes this
problem?
regards,
Patrick
