You are right, there is debug_ll support for i.MX6. If I activate it for next-20130628 imx_v6_v7_defconfig, that only "buys" me one additional line, though: > > > > Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel. > > Oh and also add earlyprintk to the command line and enable the > earlyprintk config.

If you can get debug_ll and earlyprinkt working it would be useful if you can apply the attached patch and give back the logs. I'm confused how the dummy timers are causing problems. diff --git a/kernel/time/tick-broadcast.c b/kernel/time/tick-broadcast.c index 9d96a54..3795c9c 100644 --- a/kernel/time/tick-broadcast.c +++ b/kernel/time/tick-broadcast.c @@ -92,6 +92,8 @@ void tick_install_broadcast_device(struct clock_event_device *dev) if (!try_module_get(dev->owner)) return; + pr_info("%s is now the broadcast\n", dev->name); + clockevents_exchange_device(cur, dev); if (cur) cur->event_handler = clockevents_handle_noop; diff --git a/kernel/time/tick-common.c b/kernel/time/tick-common.c index edd45f6..24548aa 100644 --- a/kernel/time/tick-common.c +++ b/kernel/time/tick-common.c @@ -275,6 +275,8 @@ void tick_check_new_device(struct clock_event_device *newdev) struct tick_device *td; int cpu; + pr_info("Checking %s\n", newdev->name); + cpu = smp_processor_id(); if (!cpumask_test_cpu(cpu, newdev->cpumask)) goto out_bc; @@ -286,10 +288,14 @@ void tick_check_new_device(struct clock_event_device *newdev) if (!tick_check_percpu(curdev, newdev, cpu)) goto out_bc; + pr_info("%d: %s is per-cpu\n", cpu, newdev->name); + /* Preference decision */ if (!tick_check_preferred(curdev, newdev)) goto out_bc; + pr_info("%d: %s is preferred\n", cpu, newdev->name); + if (!try_module_get(newdev->owner)) return; @@ -312,6 +318,7 @@ out_bc: /* * Can the new device be used as a broadcast device ? */ + pr_info("%d: %s is trying broadcast\n", cpu, newdev->name); tick_install_broadcast_device(newdev); } -- Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc. is a member of Code Aurora Forum, hosted by The Linux Foundation -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-next" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
