Known hotconfig problems?

Hi Kevin,

I also use linux 2.2.18 and gcc 2.96. Hmm.

Of course the kernel was compiled with kgcc. You probably have that figured
out...

And no matter how many times you do "cp test /proc/click/config",
everything works fine?

The file to instrument is "linuxmodule/proc_config.cc", function
"hotswap_config". You can add some 'printk()'s to see where the crash
happens.

One potential issue: Maybe the 'cli()' is causing problems for you. Try
getting rid of the "save_flags()/cli()/restore_flags()" stuff.

love,
ed
