Hi All,
I am writing a serial driver in FEDORA 3 (kernel-2.6.9). when i am trying open the the serial driver /dev/ttyX throuh my minicom application it is giving the following messages when i checked through the dmesg
minicom: page allocation failure. order:4, mode:0xd1
[<c0148f56>] __alloc_pages+0x28b/0x298
[<c0148f7b>] __get_free_pages+0x18/0x24
[<c014c689>] kmem_getpages+0x15/0x94
[<c014d415>] cache_grow+0x155/0x29a
[<c014d767>] cache_alloc_refill+0x20d/0x23d
[<c014dd18>] __kmalloc+0x6b/0x7d
Though the following messages came the driver was able to work.
Then I installed the same fedora3(kernel-2.6.9) again in the other seperate partition and checked in this case.It als gave the above message but system got hanged. Can anybody help me in this problem. waiting for the reply.
regards
