I used now 0.7-pre8 and i have got the seem problem.....(Linux 2.4)

I have analysed the code and i have found a bug in drbd_get_ee() function
(SyncSource) :

- DEFINE_WAIT(wait);
==> wait.task=current;
==> wait.task_list={NULL,NULL}

Second "list_empty(&mdev->free_ee)" condition is TRUE so DRBD call
prepare_to_wait() function :

- prepare_to_wait
==> condition "list_empty(&wait->task_list)" is FALSE
(task_list.next=prev=NULL) :
/**
 * list_empty - tests whether a list is empty
 * @head: the list to test.
 */
static inline int list_empty(struct list_head *head)
{
        return head->next == head;
}


==> DRBD doesn't call __add_wait_queue(q, wait) !!!

- DRBD execute several code lines and finally execute finish_wait function
() :

==> call list_del_init(&wait->task_list) :

static inline void list_del_init(struct list_head *entry)
{
        __list_del(entry->prev, entry->next);==> NULL, NULL
        INIT_LIST_HEAD(entry);
}

static inline void __list_del(struct list_head *prev, struct list_head
*next)
{
        next->prev = prev;
        prev->next = next;
}

==> CRASH because next and prev = NULL !!!!!


Are you agree with me ??? Why this trouble isn't find with 2.6.x Linux
Version ????
