Re: problem with Vulcano 2017-05-19 & Linux 4.4.43

Disable kernel stack protector in the kernel configuration and let me know.
Executing a lot of showroom it happens to me only in kern/netrpc. 
There is a remark about it in README:CONF_RMRKS.

Subject: [Rtai] problem with Vulcano 2017-05-19 & Linux 4.4.43

I've been working with Vulcano from 2017-05-05 and Linux 4.1.18, with
fairly good success.

Recently I tried to upgrade to Vulcano from 2017-05-19 and Linux 4.4.43,
and ran into trouble, I think related to latency calibration.


The working version:  When I load the 2017-05-05 RTAI modules on 4.1.18
I get these kernel messages:

> [ 1041.193810] RTAI[hal]: mounted. ISOL_CPUS_MASK: 0.
> [ 1041.194876] SYSINFO - # CPUs: 2, TIMER NAME: 'lapic', TIMER IRQ: 2305, TIMER FREQ: 62504000, CLOCK NAME: 'tsc', CLOCK FREQ: 2000145000, CPU FREQ: 2000145000, LINUX TIMER IRQ: 2305.

And things work pretty well.


The broken version: When I load the 2017-05-19 RTAI modules on 4.4.43 I
get these kernel messages, followed by a hard lockup:

And then the machine is hung.


I'm not passing any parameters to the kernel modules on either of these
builds.

I have not tried Vulcano 2017-05-19 on Linxu 4.1.18, but I could if you
think that would help shed light on this issue.


Both tests are on a KVM virtual machine running Debian Jessie, if that's
relevant.  The two kernel configs are here:
