(based on -rt11) So far I have a kernel that almost boots, but not quite. First issue: 'BUG: udev:45 task might have lost a preemption check!' When looking at the code in preempt_enable_no_resched(), why is the value of preempt_count() checked to be non-zero _after_ calling dec_preempt_count() ? I saw several posts on this list claiming that this message is harmless, but I'd like to figure what's going on. My boot process is stuck later when insmod loads the driver for the MPT Fusion SCSI adapter. It's waiting for a second interrupt to arrive, and that never happens. I see that the -rt patch touches many drivers by changing calls to local_irq_save (and friends), changing the type of the semaphores, but the MPT driver makes no use of these. Any ideas ? Thanks, Simon. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||
