Good
afternoon:
You may
remember me, I had a Kernel Panic in a 2.4 smp kernel while trying to stop
dvbx_y. We had the following hints from the
list: > Rev 1.62 of dvb_net.c
contains a fix which might solve your problem: > 'Fix locking to prevent
Oops on SMP systems when starting/stopping > dvb network
interfaces.' I have already applied this patch
and some others I?ve seen that could be related with our problem. Now we are
able to do ifconfig down dvb0_? (when we tried to do before, it produced a
kernel panic). However, now we cannot do a rmmod of the
driver. The modules we are using are:
skystar2.o, stv0299.o and dvb_core.o. If we load the driver and create
some interfaces dvb0_? And then we stop them we cannot unload the driver any
more. The reason is that when we do a lsmod, the module skystar2 is used by the
kernel. The count shows 4. If anybody have any idea of the
reason of the problem, please tell us. Below are the changes I have done
starting from the version 1.1.1. I also tried to do the same with the CVS
version linux_2_4, with no success. TAHNK YOU FOR YOUR TIME!! I hope at the end, other people using a 2.4 Kernel like us due to other programs can benefit.
