SubjectQuestion on Schedule and Preemption
Hi All,

Now I am developing the driver on Linux kernel 2.6.11. And I met the
problem that kernel will dump my stack from time to time. And the
kernel log will give me messages like "scheduling while atomic: ...".

Then I found the code in sched.c:

if (likely(!current->exit_state)) {
if (unlikely(in_atomic())) {
printk(KERN_ERR "scheduling while atomic: "
"%s/0x%08x/%d\n",
current->comm, preempt_count(), current->pid);
dump_stack();
}
}

Anybody can explain above code for me?

Thanks

best regards

Haixiang Liu
