| |
Hi Jouni and LKML folks,
In kernel 2.5.59 I built the hostap modules as stated in the Makefile. (make -C /usr/src/linux SUBDIRS=$PWD/driver/modules modules, etc.)
However, a combination of running said kernel, hostap_cs, and X11 produces this nasty infinite string of errors:
bad: scheduling while atomic! Call Trace: [<c011bafd>] do_schedule+0x33a/0x33f [<c01264a1>] schedule_timeout+0x5f/0xb3 [<c0175a7f>] proc_alloc_inode+0x4c/0x75 [<c0126439>] process_timeout+0x0/0x9 [<d294853d>] hfa384x_cmd+0x3eb/0x2d6b7eae [hostap_cs] [<c016474d>] get_new_inode_fast+0x48/0xf0 [<c011bb52>] default_wake_function+0x0/0x3e [<c011bb52>] default_wake_function+0x0/0x3e [<c0137b46>] get_page_cache_size+0x12/0x1d [<d2948a30>] hfa384x_get_rid+0x36/0x2d6b7606 [hostap_cs] [<d29388b5>] hostap_get_wireless_stats+0xa6/0x2d6c77f1 [hostap] [<c0168f45>] seq_printf+0x45/0x56 [<c02bd9b6>] wireless_seq_show+0xd6/0xf7 [<c0141dd5>] do_mmap_pgoff+0x40e/0x6dc [<c0168a56>] seq_read+0x1c9/0x2ee [<c014d20f>] vfs_read+0xbc/0x127 [<c014d496>] sys_read+0x3e/0x55 [<c01093cb>] syscall_call+0x7/0xb
This will repeat itself over and over again in the same order, same everything. The second I kill X the messages stop completely. I use the radeon accelerated X server using an Intel AGP bridge (kernel supported.)
Any ideas? It seems like it would be a problem in hostap_cs's main loop. Or it could be a kernel problem, which is why I'm forwarding it to LKML :) Why would it only happen when X11 is active though?
Thanks for any insight anyone might have on this issue. Lately, I left my machine on and went to go eat lunch. When i came back, /var/log/syslog was overflowing with these errors and had filled up /var completely. Had to purge them all manually :)
